Tough, vandal resistant taps*

Over the last two years Holroyd Council in New South Wales has progressively upgraded their parks, swimming centres and ovals with GE products. Council was looking for a range of tapware that was robust to take the rigorous demands of today’s environment, easy to install, attractive and water saving to help our future. The verdict was to use the Ezy Push Range and a heavy duty shower head as vandalism is always a major issue.

Each unit has a simple push button, cam action or pin lever interchangeable option to turn the water on. GE’s pillar, hose and bib taps along with the Anti Vandal Shower Rose are installed in Central Gardens Merrylands, Monte Bennett Oval Wentworthville and Wentworth Swimming Centre to name a few.

“Councils can have confidence our products will perform to the highest industry standard, as all of our ranges of tapware are 100 per cent made in our Western Australian factory under the strict guidelines of the relevant Australian Standards Marks, and our ISO 9001 quality system,” said Andrew Le Claire, State Manager NSW. “With over 40 years’ experience, our products have been used in schools, prisons, laboratories, hospitals, restaurants, and public utilities. GE is a Quality Assured Manufacturer not a Quality Assured Handler.”

GE has an office or an agent in every State. All details are on the GE website at www.galvinengineering.com.au
