About Stephen Barry
TRANSFORMING THE BATHROOM THROUGH INNOVATION AND DESIGN The personality of LAUFEN, a highly traditional Swiss brand, reflects a symbiosis of design, quality and functionality. LAUFEN, the premium brand under the ROCA umbrella, is one of the world\'s leading manufacturers with a global distribution network. LAUFEN is a global expert when it comes to manufacturing bathroom ceramics and faucets. For over 120 years, LAUFEN has been using the oldest malleable material known to man, ceramics, to make innovative products in state-of-the-art plants with legendary Swiss precision. What makes LAUFEN products unique is that their Swiss design unites two major design trends – emotional Italian design from the south and the northern tradition of design precision and clarity. LAUFEN, an eco-friendly Swiss company, is committed to preserving natural resources by manufacturing products that allow water, a precious natural resource, to be used sparingly.
