Schaub & Company

1004211513_018

This past summer Bob Schaub, founder and president of Schaub & Company, visited the Bird Charleston sales staff to share some new products to be added to their existing hardware line.

After the presentation our sales team shared some thoughts and ideas with Bob.  He took note of our suggestions and headed back home to Grand Rapids, Michigan.

Months later, to our surprise and pleasure, many of the ideas mentioned that day were now becoming part of the Schaub & Company’s extensive line of well designed and affordable cabinet hardware.

Being a part of the creative process with a manufacturer like Schaub & Company was a great experience.  Bob’s desire to collaborate with dealers shows his willingness to stay current and understand market demands in order to maintain their position in the industry.

Drain

The latest trend in bath design and remodeling is to create large open showers that provide a luxurious experience. This means increasing the shower footprint for an open, airy and spa-like ambiance, and removing barriers such as shower doors for walk-in or step-in convenience. This ‘wetroom’ trend has already taken hold in Europe and is successfully moving to the US.

A key to an elegant environment is to ensure for proper drainage, with a system that works efficiently and also brings harmonious design to the shower. ACO Polymer Products, a worldwide leader in drain technology, has responded to this demand, offering the A&D community a creative new line of shower channel products under the brand ‘Quartz by ACO.’

This new line sets a new standard for the wetroom concept, allowing freedom of design for the shower while providing an attractive and modern solution as the channel seamlessly integrates into tile, granite, or marble flooring.
