Roca’s products have been chosen to equip the bathroom spaces of the renovated Eiffel Tower. Having just celebrated its 126th birthday, the monument designed by Gustave Eiffel still remains a symbol of France and a constant draw for tourists from around the world, seven million of whom visit it every year.

Its first-floor facilities feature Roca products. The bathroom spaces of the Eiffel Pavilion were renovated in 2013 with products with a white finish that contrasts with the wall in the tower’s original Venetian red. This now-forgotten fact was used by architect Alain Moatti, responsible for the remodelling, as the central theme of the project.

Roca faucet solutions, urinals, installation systems and flush plates, basins and WCs were selected to equip the pavilion’s bathroom space. Particularly noteworthy are the Amberes basin and Meridian wall-hung WC, which offer visitors the very best in toilet facilities, always with the aim of meeting current accessibility regulations and reduction of environmental impact.

The Ferrié Pavilion is the second space to be renovated, where the striking Venetian red colour is once again present. For this space, Roca has produced a special series of the Diverta basin, as well as of the Meridian WC and the Site urinal, all in a vitreous china with the same red finish. Lastly, products from the wide range of Roca solutions will also be installed on the Tower’s second floor.
