SCHOCK Presents World First:
Standing still is an unknown concept to the inventors of the quartz composite sink from Regen, Germany. In their in-house R&D lab there’s an innovative team working continually on optimising their high-grade products.

With this evolution, the innovation leader gives dealers the option to position themselves and offers end customers a product line that is consistent with the movement towards conscious consumption and greater consideration of the way every individual’s actions shape the future. The innovative material’s development marks a rigorous continuation of the sustainability drive pursued by the Bavarian company, which has always produced its quartz composite sinks in harmony with nature and the local region: SCHOCK is the only quartz composite sink manufacturer to produce exclusively in Germany, naturally using quartz sand from the local region.

PRESS PLAY
It sounds a bit strange at first: Interprint is dropping the traditional collection concept, daring to do something totally new instead. It might be an unusual idea, but it’s so typical of the decor printer from Arnsberg. The massive success of the previous SIX PACK collection is no excuse to simply bring out a new edition. Interprint has ended the SIX PACK success story – making way for a unique new approach: PRESS PLAY takes a bold step into the future – and an ever-expanding playlist of decors.
