Hardware water parts determine the "life cycle" of bathroom products
In today's market, domestic sanitary products have reached a level that is comparable to international brands in terms of design, functionality, and overall quality. However, one area where they still lag behind is the service life of the products. The key factor affecting the longevity of bathroom fixtures is the quality of the hardware water components.
Bathroom hardware water parts include showers, faucets, bath rods, toilet valves, angle stops, and more. International brands like Kohler, TOTO, and American Standard have well-established technical standards and advanced manufacturing processes. While domestic manufacturers have made progress, the overall industry remains uneven, with many small workshops still relying on outdated methods. This often results in substandard parts, which can compromise the quality of the entire product and lead to shorter lifespans.
These hardware and water components are typically sold as supplementary items in the retail process, rather than being the main focus. As a result, many consumers don't pay much attention to them when making a purchase, which gives some merchants an opportunity to cut corners or offer lower-quality alternatives.
Most domestic sanitary ware companies source their hardware and water parts from external suppliers. However, when customers inquire about these components, manufacturers often claim they are produced in-house. A representative from a domestic bathroom brand shared, “The quality of the hardware in bathroom products is hard for the average consumer to judge just by looking at it. There’s not much difference during testing, so companies often choose cheaper options to keep costs down. High-priced branded parts are usually not considered.â€
Despite these challenges, local brands still offer good value for money and meet current consumer needs effectively. Many even outshine international brands in terms of design innovation. Consumers are advised to pay close attention to details when selecting bathroom products that match their home decor. For example, checking if the toilet bowl’s water design is efficient, what material the faucet is made of, and whether the accessories come from a reputable brand can make a big difference in long-term satisfaction.
