What happens after the lifespan of a tap has been reached?

This is where our innovative approach, S3 By Dolphin, comes into play, ensuring the longevity of commercial washrooms through a circular economy solution.

Our washroom products are thoughtfully designed to be reused, repaired, or recycled, rather than simply disposed of.

Signing up for S3 by Dolphin marks the beginning of the true lifecycle of taps by Dolphin.

Asset Surveys for Condition Evaluation

At the end of their initial lifecycle, our commercial taps undergo asset surveys. This evaluation assesses their condition and determines the next steps in their journey.

Removal and Refurbishment

When a tap is retired, the S3 protection plan steps in. Dolphin taps are carefully uninstalled and sent to our facilities for disassembly and expert refurbishment. Through refinishing, they are restored to like-new condition, ready to begin a second life.

Repackaging and Redistribution

Once refurbished, taps are repackaged with care and shipped to their new destination. This cycle of reuse exemplifies our commitment to reducing waste and promoting sustainability.
