Ras Al Khaimah, UAE, 14^th March 2017 – RAK Ceramics PJSC (Ticker: RAKCEC: Abu Dhabi), one of the largest ceramics’ brands in the world, presented its new corporate brand identity and unveiled its latest sanitaryware range today at ISH, the world’s biggest showcase for innovative bathroom design, energy efficient heating, air-conditioning technology and renewable energies.

The new corporate brand identity is designed to unify all of its global subsidiaries and was revealed at the RAK Ceramics stand, which has been designed by Italian architect Massimiliano Raggi, and clearly articulates the company’s proposition, ‘Room for Imagination’. The global repositioning exercise is one of many initiatives which are helping to drive RAK Ceramics forward to achieving its vision, to become the leading ceramics lifestyle solutions provider in the world.

This year’s themes for the ISH bathroom experience are focused on wellness, comfort and sustainability. RAK Ceramics was one of the first companies in the world to introduce rimless technology and ISH creates the perfect platform for the company to showcase its latest rimless collections. Rimless WCs, as the name suggests, have no rims, making them extremely hygienic and easy to clean.

Combined with the latest water saving technology, beautiful designs and silent flush, RAK Ceramics has developed five new rimless models for its existing ranges, including wall hung, back to wall and closed coupled WCs for RAK-WASHINGTON, RAK-ELENA, RAK-SERIES 600, RAK-HARMONY/MOON and RAK-TONIQUE. RAK Ceramics will also present a brand-new concept, RAK-MORNING. An affordable and very wide range, with carefully finished details and quality design to suit international tastes, incorporating the latest rimless technology, RAK-MORNING has been designed to create ‘room for imagination’.
