Ever-innovating, the latest lineup of Delta® products were introduced at the Kitchen and Bath Industry Show (KBIS), in January 2017.
“As an innovative leader in the kitchen and bath space, Delta Faucet constantly strives for new ways to improve the way we interact with water,” said Kurt Backlund, senior director of Delta product marketing. “The new offerings unveiled at the show this year are not only beautifully designed, but each product incorporates smart technologies that enhance the user experience in terms of reliability and functionality.”
New Delta products and technologies on display include:
Pivotal™ Bath Collection: Designed with global audiences in mind, the Pivotal collection couples bold angles with clean lines to create a striking addition for contemporary bath spaces. With sleek handles and an angular spout, the collection draws inspiration from architecture found within the world’s most cosmopolitan cities, from Tokyo and London to Basel and Brasilia. Blending form and function, the collection features single-handle faucets with DIAMOND™ Seal Technology, a valve which requires no lubrication, eliminates wear on seals and ensures “like new” operation for the life of the faucet. Additionally, all showers feature H2Okinetic® Technology, creating a consumer-proven feeling of more water without using more water.
All faucets in the collection meet WaterSense® requirements1, flowing at a rate of 1.2 gallons per minute (gpm)2.
The Pivotal bath suite offers a variety of bath options, including:
Single-handle faucets of three varying heights: standard, mid-height riser and vessel
Two-handle widespread and wall mount faucets
Showers with H2Okinetic Technology
Wall-mounted tub fillers and Roman tub fillers
Integrated shower diverter, as well as tub and shower trims
The Pivotal collection also offers a unique line of coordinating accessories, including an 8-inch miniature towel bar, a tissue holder with a shelf, and a double pronged tissue holder – ideal for large families. The collection is available in Chrome, Brilliance® Stainless, Polished Nickel and Matte Black finishes.
Esque™ Kitchen Collection: With refined curves and cosmopolitan contours, the Esque collection offers a clean, poised look to complement the fresh modernity found in contemporary kitchens as well as the tranquility of transitional spaces. A strong yet subtle wrap at the faucet’s base creates a sense of asymmetrical movement that is reflected – quite literally – in the swoop of the handle, which resembles the pronounced arm of an elite ballet dancer guiding the eye along the elongated spout. The sleek pull-down design is coupled with modern innovations, such as MagnaTite® Docking to hold the spray head firmly in place via a powerful magnet and DIAMOND™ Seal Technology to ensure like-new operation for the life of the faucet. Other features such as optional Touch2O® Technology with TempSense® Technology, which allows the faucet to be turned on and off with just a touch, simplify kitchen tasks during food prep and clean-up. An LED light at the base lets users know when the water has reached the desired temperature range.

The full kitchen suite is available in multiple faucet configurations with optional Touch2O Technology on the single handle pull-down kitchen and bar faucets. In addition to coordinating beverage faucets, soap dispensers with Touch2O.xt® Technology are offered for a completely hands-free experience. The collection is available in Chrome, Arctic® Stainless, and Venetian Bronze® and Matte Black finishes.
ShieldSpray™ Technology: Delta ShieldSpray Technology delivers a simple yet practical means to clean with laser-like precision while containing mess and splatter. A concentrated jet of water powers stubborn messes away as an innovative water shield simultaneously contains splatter and clears off the mess. Together, these actions decrease the time spent soaking, scrubbing and even shirt swapping based on splatter.
“We’re always looking to add convenience and enhance consumer experiences with water,” said Peggy Gallagher, Delta product manager. “ShieldSpray Technology is a meaningful solution that addresses everyday obstacles with stubborn messes and helps minimize time spent cleaning up in the kitchen.”
ShieldSpray Technology reflects the brand’s continued commitment to infuse style and thoughtful functionality in the kitchen and bath. The new technology will be available on select Delta pull-down kitchen faucets, including the Esque™, Leland®, Mateo®, Addison™ and Cassidy™ collections throughout 2017.
HydroRain™ Two-In-One Shower Head: To enhance its ever-evolving bath portfolio, the Delta brand unveiled the HydroRain Two-in-One Shower Head, delivering a luxurious, full-coverage water experience to consumers. With the option to use the raincan shower, the fixed shower head, or both showers simultaneously, the HydroRain system offers complete shower control and increased bathing flexibility.
“We understand consumers today are seeking spa-like shower experiences at home that are both functional and attainable,” said Leah Schubert, Delta product manager. “The HydroRain shower head is an ideal, affordable option to meet that need with a raincan shower head that pivots 40 degrees for broadened coverage and dual configuration to provide soaking water coverage.”
Designed to fit a standard shower arm, the HydroRain shower head can be installed in minutes for a quick and simple bath upgrade. The shower head is WaterSense® labeled1 and flows at a rate of 2.0 gallons per minute (gpm), providing 20 percent water savings when compared to industry standards2. This is all achieved without sacrificing the comfort and convenience of the user experience or the durability and life span of the product. Additionally, Touch-Clean® soft, rubber spray holes ensure easy removal of calcium and lime build-up from the spray face with the touch of a finger.
Currently available in five spray settings, which include full spray, massage spray, full spray with massage, shampoo rinsing spray and pause, the HydroRain Two-in-One shower head is offered in Chrome, Brilliance Stainless, Venetian Bronze and Polished Nickel finishes.
