The predecessor of this company was the merger back in 1889 in France of two industries: Emile Jacob, who produced plumbing taps and pipes, and Maurice Delafon, a manufacturer of hygienic products made of enamelled white sandstone. In 1901, the production association turns into the Jacob Delafon company. The company's rapid growth was ahead of its time. The range of products manufactured at Jacob Delafon has been constantly expanding. In 1926, the first cast-iron bathtubs of this manufacturer were born. In 1967, a plant specializing in mixers was launched. In 1972, production became international. Since 1986, the brand has been part of the Kohler Co.
Currently, Jacob Delafon is a manufacturer that pays the lion's share of attention to the design of its products. All products are combined into collections, each of which includes sanitary equipment, sanitary ware and furniture. All components of the collection are united by one style and technical parameters.
Faucets are presented in 18 collections.Each of them is unique and attractive in its own way. Manufacturers pay special attention to the aesthetic perception of their products. Smooth rounded shapes prevail, and all protruding mechanisms (divertor, aerator) are most often hidden. In addition to design, priority areas in the production of mixers are functionality, ergonomics and durability. In addition, special attention is paid to the efficiency of mixers - most models are equipped with a water pressure limitation system.
More than a century of history of the company, its recognition all over the world, makes it possible to assert without a twinge of conscience that Jacob Delafon products are the best choice for creating unique design solutions in the bathroom and kitchen. Jacob Delafon faucets are a piece of France with its charm in your home.

Jacob Delafon faucets are an example of elegance, flavored with practicality and durability and embodied in everyday things.Despite all the positive qualities of this product, during its operation you may encounter some not very pleasant moments. One of them is that ceramic mechanisms (cartridges and crane boxes) are not designed for use in very hard water and require the installation of filters. The second is a not very developed network of service centers in the Russian Federation. Despite this, Jacob Delafon faucets remain an example of French sophistication and European quality available to everyone.
