In today’s European market, faucet manufacturers face increasingly strict regulations on materials used in drinking water systems. The 4MS Initiative, jointly adopted by Germany (UBA), France (ACS), the Netherlands (KTW-BWGL), and the United Kingdom (WRAS), sets unified safety and hygiene standards for metallic materials.
For brands seeking to enter or grow in these markets, 4MS compliance is no longer optional — it’s essential.
At Landonbath, we recognize the importance of material safety, product compliance, and long-term sustainability. As a trusted supplier of premium brass faucets, we are committed to helping our clients meet 4MS requirements — and go beyond them.
The 4MS Common Approach aims to harmonize how materials are assessed for use in drinking water systems. Key compliance criteria include:
Strict limits on lead (Pb), nickel (Ni), manganese (Mn), and aluminum (Al)
Certification by accredited authorities such as UBA, ACS, WRAS, and KTW-BWGL
Use of low-lead or lead-free brass materials (e.g., CW511L, CW617N-LF, CW602N)
Products that fail to comply may face market access restrictions and brand reputation risks across Europe.
We use only certified, traceable materials to ensure safety and performance. Our products — including faucet bodies, rough-in kits, and tub fillers — are manufactured using:
Low-lead brass options, such as CB770S, CW511L, CW617N-LF
Full traceability, with documentation aligned with UBA, WRAS, KTW-BWGL, and ACS requirements
Rigorous in-house quality control, covering CNC machining, polishing, plating, and pressure testing
Every Landonbath product is built to support safe and sustainable water systems, fully aligned with European compliance expectations.
While 4MS is a foundational requirement, we believe design and functionality must also lead. That’s why Landonbath goes further:
High-flow freestanding tub fillers: Up to 13–15L/min at 3 bar for a faster, better user experience
4th-generation built-in rough-in kits: Easy tool-free adjustments, built-in flushing, and NPT threading
Premium PVD surface finishes: Available in brushed gold, gunmetal, matte black, and more
By combining engineering innovation with visual appeal, we help brands exceed customer expectations while staying fully compliant.
