Bathroom waterproofing expert wedi discusses its core values and approach to product design and manufacture

wedi is proud to be the leader in its field and decades ahead of the competition. The company’s sole objective is to provide innovative products and excellent customer service in order to bring wellness into clients’ lives with practical and aesthetically pleasing bathrooms or spa areas. It is precisely the interaction of precision, dedication to clients, and connection to nature that makes wedi special.

Precision
wedi products have been developed in close proximity with architects, interior designers and contractors for more than 34 years. Every element is engineered with the upmost precision and goes through a vigorous testing process and quality control. Furthermore, the existing product range is under continuous development while new innovations are introduced every year.

wedi’s core values have risen to the surface in perfect unison with the recent introduction of its first ‘visible’ product range: functionality, practicality and longevity with a simple, timeless elegance do more than justice to the brand’s reputation. The elegant surfaces of the wedi Top series provide a colour-coordinated cladding from the shower floor to the walls and other even surfaces such as shelving, washstands or bath cladding.

Dedication
The brand is already well known for its waterproofing solutions for bathrooms and wet rooms, but it is about so much more! wedi can also provide clients with the perfect solution to almost any bespoke requirement. Whether it is a steam cabin, jacuzzi or an indoor pool with heated benches or loungers, wedi helps plan, manufacture and deliver to site.

Customised building solutions are tested and built in the wedi factory before dispatch, with all components marked to aid quick and efficient assembly. The company provides support all the way through to completion with on-site assistance and training where needed. Clients can therefore rest assured that the end result is nothing less than outstanding. The project is signed and sealed by wedi, with a 10-year manufacturer quality guarantee giving peace of mind.

Connection to nature
wedi takes a pride in its eco-friendly products; nature has been at the heart of the business from the start. All elements are not only 100 per cent waterproof to the core and provide long-term protection against mould and fungus, but also provide fantastic insulation. This has been awarded with an A+ label, highlighting the products’ non-hazardous and low-emission credentials.

Highest standards
wedi refuses to compromise on quality, making its products all the more honest and authentic. Every element, individually or as a part of the system, does what it is designed for in a secure and safe way.

wedi’s core values are enhanced by the floor-to-ceiling modular system solution that is optimised for performance. Each and every wedi product is designed to interlock with one another and work with wedi accessories to complete the waterproofing installation. The wedi system has been awarded a CE mark for its sealing characteristics in bathrooms and wet rooms.

Whether it is an en-suite, family bathroom or a small washroom, the inclusion of the sound deadening wedi Non-Step range in the wedi system provides sound insulation, including water impact noise reduction. This ensures that the tranquillity of the home is not affected.

Unrivalled design freedom
It is no secret that the cement-based coating of the XPS foam core is a perfect base for any type of tile or plaster. Further expanding on surface design possibilities, the manufacturer’s brand new innovation, wedi Top series, provides a sleek, natural, stone effect finish that is a perfect alternative to tiling, while promoting comfort (low heat conductivity) and hygiene (antibacterial surface) throughout the bathroom.

Thanks to their modular nature, wedi elements can be combined in countless variations, resulting in a customised approach that does not require bespoke production and provides almost limitless interior design possibilities.

The effect is more than the sum of its parts
Designed to protect and preserve while promoting freedom in planning, wedi products are simple, secure and versatile. From research and development through to support, dedicated employees are key to the company’s success. A brand that is approachable and a team that strives to exceed clients’ expectations  – this is wedi.
