When it comes to commercial washroom design, sometimes the smartest choice is the one you never have to touch!

Sensor taps are becoming an increasingly practical choice for public bathrooms, combining hygiene, water efficiency and reliable performance with effortless operation. But what makes them a better alternative to traditional push taps?

Hands-Free Hygiene, Hassle-Free Operation

Unlike push taps, touch-free sensor taps eliminate the need to physically operate a tap, helping reduce contact with shared surfaces. Water flows instantly when hands are detected and stops automatically when removed. No buttons, no waiting, no unnecessary water wastage.

Smart Technology, Built to Last

Traditional push taps rely on repeated mechanical activation, introducing wear over time. Sanela sensor taps use electronic detection and controlled solenoid operation, reducing mechanical handling while offering adjustable sensor ranges, flow durations and hygiene-flush settings to suit individual project requirements.

And there’s strength behind the smarts! The Sanela Spartan range combines stainless steel with lead-free DZR brass construction, delivering robust, vandal-resistant performance while supporting compliance with New Zealand’s potable water requirements.

Water Efficiency Without Compromise

Our Sanela sensor taps are 6-Star WELS rated, independently tested in New Zealand to verify their water-saving performance. Combined with automatic shut-off, this makes them an economical, environmentally responsible choice for high-traffic commercial bathrooms.

A Better Fit for Modern Washrooms

From schools and healthcare facilities to airports and public amenities, Sanela sensor taps deliver intuitive operation, contemporary styling and specification flexibility.

And why stop at the tap? Complete the look with our matching touch-free soap dispensers, creating a coordinated washroom design that’s as hygienic as it is stylish.

Less contact. Less waste. More control. That’s smart washroom design at work.
