Fratelli Frattini at Salone del Bagno 2026
Fratelli Frattini’s presence at Salone del Bagno 2026 confirmed a path founded on production expertise, design and Italian manufacturing culture. The trade fair was an opportunity for exchange with designers, retailers, showrooms, installers and international operators attentive to reliable solutions consistent with the bathroom project.
Rooted in the Lake Orta district, the company continues to express a Made in Italy linked to local production, process control and family continuity.
A stand designed as a project experience
The Fratelli Frattini stand was conceived as a material, elegant and immersive space. Lighting, surfaces, finishes and colour combinations accompanied visitors along a path close to the world of tailored choice.
The material library, moodboards and virtual settings made the experience more interactive, offering designers and visitors the possibility of imagining the bathroom through combinations of materials, surfaces and tapware.
Linea and Don Chisciotte, two expressions of the Frattini vision
Among the leading collections, Linea and Don Chisciotte represented two complementary souls of the Fratelli Frattini language.
Linea, a project by Marco Piva, interprets the bathroom environment through an essential, geometric and architectural sign. The cylindrical body, flat lever and measured proportions define a discreet and authoritative presence, designed to dialogue with residential and contract spaces. Made entirely of 316L stainless steel, the collection enhances a solid, hygienic material that is stable over time, enriched by PVD finishes that expand compositional possibilities.
Don Chisciotte, on the other hand, was born from the encounter between design memory and contemporary vision. The proportions of traditional tapware are transformed into essential lines, while the handle inspired by windmill blades introduces a recognisable and narrative sign. The collection combines aesthetic presence and formal lightness, with a wide range of finishes that makes it possible to interpret classic and contemporary languages.
Ginger Ale and Narciso Q, continuity and versatility
Completing the story of the stand, Ginger Ale and Narciso Q expressed Fratelli Frattini’s ability to respond to different design needs with aesthetic consistency and construction reliability.
Ginger Ale interprets tapware as an essential everyday gesture. Clean lines, measured proportions and attention to surfaces create a discreet presence, able to fit naturally into contemporary environments. It is a collection designed to accompany everyday use through ergonomics, simplicity and functional continuity.
Narciso Q expands the Narciso family with a more architectural and modular language. Clear volumes, material surfaces and over 30 items allow tailor-made configurations for washbasin, shower and bathroom environment. Availability in 11 finishes strengthens compositional freedom, making the collection suitable for projects in which visual continuity and formal precision become central elements.
A reputation built between territory, design and future
From Lake Orta to Milan, the presence at the trade fair conveyed a precise continuity: the value of a family business that evolves while maintaining a firm bond with the territory, local production and quality control. An identity that finds in Made in Italy a daily practice, expressed through materials, processes, expertise and collections designed to last over time.
At Salone del Bagno 2026, Fratelli Frattini gave shape to a story of design, material and vision. A story that looks at the contemporary bathroom as a space of well-being, design and relationship, confirming the solidity of a reputation built with consistency, experience and manufacturing culture.
