You can find a selection of Villeroy & Boch's major innovations here.
TwistFlush
The TwistFlush technology uses the power of swirling water to clean the toilet. New, very thorough and water-saving flushing technology. Revolutionary technology with a powerful water vortex Saves up to 19,700 litres of water a year* Tough on dirt and germs Practically brushless Practically no splashing and super silent
DirectFlush toilets
Instead of a conventional rim, Villeroy & Boch DirectFlush toilets have an intelligent flushing system: it rinses the entire inner surface of the bowl without splashing - thanks to a splash guard at the top of the bowl and the higher positioning of the water jets. Consuming just 3 or 4.5 litres of water per activation, DirectFlush ensures maximum flushing efficiency. The DirectFlush models are completely glazed for quick and easy cleaning. In 2015, sales of DirectFlush and HygieneFlush toilets doubled in comparison with the previous year.
CeramicPlus
CeramicPlus - the dirt-repellent surface for sanitary ceramics - makes cleaning your bathroom easier. The innovative finishing process ensures that drops on the surface immediately flow together to form water beads and then simply run off with the dirt and limescale dissolved in them. This makes it easier to clean ceramics coated with CeramicPlus.
AntiBac
When hygiene in the bathroom is especially important, we have the solution: AntiBac! Its innovative surface technology has an antibacterial effect and has been proven to reduce the growth of bacteria by more than 99.9%! Particularly practical: The antibacterial properties are integrated directly in the bathroom ceramics and WC seats, making it possible to significantly reduce the use of chemical cleaning agents. It goes without saying that AntiBac poses absolutely no health risks and offers reliable protection and safety for the entire service life of your products.
TitanCeram – a material with a future
TitanCeram is an innovative material bringing together experience from over 275 years of ceramic production and developed specially for high-quality premium designs. The new ceramic material passes through specially adapted production steps to allow the creation of products with uniquely precise shapes. TitanCeram stands for outstanding design highlights, such as the Octagon pedestal washbasin, a novel and precise shape featuring extremely thin walls and sharply defined edges.
TitanGlaze
Our new glaze, TitanGlaze, doesn’t need to shimmer in order to shine — its modern matt appearance is both exceptionally beautiful and extremely durable. Thanks to high-purity, crystalline aluminium oxide, TitanGlaze provides ceramics with an attractive yet particularly scratch- and impact-resistant surface finish. Even after many years, your bathroom will look as good as new.
QUARYL® Nature Perfected
Quaryl® is a material, developed and manufactured exclusively by Villeroy & Boch, that is the successful basis for many products and design innovations. It combines the best properties of natural quartz with the versatility of high-quality acrylic resin. The result is a new element that exhibits all the properties one could wish for in just one material: it can be moulded to meet the highest design requirements. It is durable, timeless, warm and pure.
SoftClosing & Quick Release
Thanks to special dampers integrated into the hinges, WC seats with Soft Closing technology close gently and silently. This enhances comfort and prevents any noise caused by the cover slamming shut. Makes light work of bathroom cleaning: WC seats fitted with Quick Release are child’s play to remove and replace. Simply lift the seat and then it’s much easier and quicker to clean the WC, getting into all the nooks and crannies.
Ultimate Fitness - Invisible Jets
Design innovation means: aesthetics and function come together to create a unique sense of harmony. Ultimate Fitness is Villeroy & Boch’s first invisible whirlpool system which guarantees a full body massage: high-quality Quaryl® enables the innovative design with integrated invisible jets in the base of the bath and invisible pop-up jets along the sides.
Whisper Whirlpool Systems
All Whisper™ whirlpool systems meet the standard for sound levels in buildings (DIN4109), as tested by the Fraunhofer Institute in Germany. Especially the Whisper Airlpool is the most silent system on the market.
Silentflow - The ultra-quiet and fast filling system
A more peaceful and relaxing start to each bath. Our innovative SilentFlow valve fills the bath pleasantly and quietly from the bottom up. Integration in the base of the bath eliminates practically all sounds of running water. The star-shaped flow of water from the SilentFlow system is not just quiet, it is fast too. A filling rate of up to 20 litres a minute considerably reduces the waiting time before luxuriating in a restful bath.

Manufacture Rock
The Manufacture Rock collection is inspired by slate, whose many layers of rock, formed millions of years ago, constantly reveal new patterns, structures and colours. The lifelike slate surface of the tableware made of solid-coloured, black Premium Porcelain, reproduced in fine relief with a hint of glaze, has a fascinatingly authentic feel.
NewWave
Anyone familiar with Villeroy & Boch will also know NewWave: since its launch in 2001, NewWave has been an essential part of the Villeroy & Boch range. what makes the range special: Villeroy & Boch's NewWave series represents a break from the traditional rounded shape of crockery, creating a completely new design with an original wave effect. In 2004, the special design and innovative die-casting process used to produce the cup, allowing the handle to be harmoniously integrated in the overall shape, earned Villeroy & Boch the "Innovationspreis der deutschen Wirtschaft" [German Economy Innovation Award] for its NewWave collection.
