FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE January 2015
THE NEW MOEN® CANADA WYNFORD™ COLLECTION ADDS EXCEPTIONAL BEAUTY TO THE BATHROOM
Oakville, Ontario… Traditional design in the bathroom is getting more personal. To provide additional options to consumers, Moen Canada has added another classic collection to its portfolio with Wynford™. The strong silhouette of the faucet instantly brings exceptional beauty to any bath. Plus, a wide variety of configurations and finish options provide versatility, allowing consumers to create the perfect combination to personalize their space.
“Consumers will love the timeless look of Wynford along with the optimal customization the suite provides,” said Garry Scott, vice president, wholesale marketing and brand development, Moen Canada. “Wynford was inspired by time-honoured sensibilities; traditional classic décor has become less ‘fussy’ and can now incorporate a variety of details and nuances that were once exclusively aligned with other styles. Whether you select decorative cross handles or levers, the collection creates a relaxed look that fits with multiple décor preferences, including traditional and transitional. ‘Less is more’ perfectly describes Wynford.”
The Wynford suite features an updated, clean look with a high-arc design for easy hand washing. Several faucet options are available including a single-handle, single-hole faucet; a single-handle, single-hole vessel faucet; a two-handle centreset faucet with lever handles; and two-handle widespread faucets with a choice of lever or cross handles. The bath collection is available in Chrome, LifeShine® Brushed Nickel, LifeShine Polished Nickel and Oil Rubbed Bronze finishes.
The single-handle lavatory faucet features the 1255® Duralast® cartridge from Moen, a state-of- the-art ceramic-disc cartridge that provides a consistently smooth handle feel for the life of the faucet. Additionally, all Wynford lavatory faucets are certified to meet WaterSense® criteria, meaning the fixtures meet the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) guidelines as an environmentally responsible and efficient product. The faucets are flow-optimized to allow water to flow at 1.5 gallons per minute (5.7 litres per minute); delivering the sensational water experience that consumers have come to expect from Moen, while conserving water.
Extending the look to other areas of the bath, the Wynford suite includes Moentrol® and Posi- Temp® tub/shower components, as well as a Roman tub and bidet with lever handles. Each offers the same classic styling as the faucets for a perfectly matched space. For consumers with multiple water outlets or vertical spa configurations, even the trim on the transfer valve coordinates.
The Wynford suite also utilizes the innovative Moen M•PACT® common valve system on its widespread faucets and tub/showering options. This advanced valve architecture makes it quick and easy to change the style of the faucet or shower trim in minutes... without replacing any plumbing behind the wall or under the sink. Simply unscrew the exterior trim, lift out and replace with a new style or finish.
For a coordinated look, matching bath accessories are also offered within the Wynford collection. Accessories include a signature corner shower basket, exclusive to the Wynford suite, which allows additional storage capacity in the shower; a decorative tank lever; a towel ring; a double robe hook; a pivoting paper holder; 18- and 24-inch towel bars; and a 24-inch double towel bar to add both style and functionality to the bathroom.
The collection also offers a limited lifetime warranty.* For more information about the Wynford collection from Moen Canada, visit moen.ca.
