Translucent Moonlight(R) Tub From MAAX Shines in 'New Product Pavilion' Contest Sponsored by Kitchen & Bath Business
STE-MARIE-DE-BEAUCE, QUEBEC--2002-04-26 The all-new Translucent Moonlight(R) Tub created by MAAX won second prize in the 2002 edition of the "New Product Pavilion" contest organized for exhibitors of the Kitchen/Bath Industry Show & Conference (KBIS) taking place earlier this month in Chicago. First place went to a drawer organizing system from Julius Blum and third place was awarded to a bath accessory from Noveletti. "This is one of the greatest recognitions we could hope for because KBIS is one of the biggest shows of the Industry and all the voting is done by our peers," said Pat Henaire, VP of Marketing and R&D.
Kitchen & Bath Business, the leading trade magazine in the Kitchen and Bath Industry, launched the New Product Pavilion contest four years ago. Contest winners are chosen by the attendees, who vote after touring the New Product Pavilion. As an added promotional benefit, winners are to be featured in the June 2002 issue of Kitchen & Bath Business, which reaches over 50,000 architects, interior designers, kitchen dealers and designers, custom builders, remodelers, distributors and others.
MAAX, a leading North American manufacturer of kitchen and bathroom products launched the attractive Translucent Moonlight(R) Tub on April 5th at the KBIS. The tub is scheduled for market introduction in August 2002. In addition to classic style and comfort, this innovative (77" x 37" x 24") tilt-forward bathtub lets the light through for added effect.
Nowadays, tubs tend to be larger and deeper since people don't like to crunch down to be completely submerged in water. Currently, claw-foot baths are also making a strong comeback. The Translucent Moonlight(R) Tub incorporates the essential elements of these trends in a luxury 6-foot soaker.
The Moonlight(R) Tub rests on a handmade Charcoal wrought iron base. It is available in Lagoon Blue or Ice White and is made of translucent acrylic that redefines simple elegance with its extra smooth exterior finish. Developed through an exclusive infusion process that produces a highly resistant thermoformed shell. The tub comes with optional matching Memoria faucet kit in solid brass complete with 1/4 turn ceramic valve.
MAAX is among the five largest manufacturers of kitchen and bathroom products in North America. With 23 plants and 7 distribution centers located throughout North America and Europe, MAAX can move its products on demand to anywhere on the continent. For more information visit www.maax.com
