The Workshop

How many bathroom companies still design and manufacture their own products?

At Catchpole & Rye, our extensive on-site workshops allow our team of skilled craftsmen to produce and hand-finish our pieces to a level of unrivalled quality. This ‘in-house’ capability allows us to respond to our customers’ individual needs.

We specialise in creative solutions to help achieve a genuinely bespoke service. In fact, many of our favourite pieces were created in this way.

The Foundry

Man’s ability to transform raw ores into metal objects has been one of the milestones in human development.

Using the same fundamental principles that have been trusted for generations, our Kentish foundry produces cast iron for all of our baths.

The raw iron is heated to 1100 degrees Celsius and, whilst molten, poured into sandboxes using complex runner systems. Once cooled, these moulds are “struck”, and the basic casting is revealed.

Electro Plating

All of our brassware products, including taps, showers, towel rails, and other fixtures, are sent to our specialised on-site electroplating workshop for further refinement.

This crucial step allows us to create a broad range of exquisite metal finishes that cater to diverse aesthetic preferences.

Among the finishes we offer are sleek Black and Silver Nickel, eye-catching Polished Copper, and sophisticated Aged Brass, providing a versatile selection that complements any design vision.

Engineering

At Catchpole & Rye, we are driven by a commitment to challenge conventional manufacturing methods and push the boundaries of what’s possible.

We constantly strive to devise groundbreaking engineering solutions that not only meet but exceed the expectations of our customers.

This approach enables us to create custom, high-quality pieces tailored to the unique needs and preferences of each client.
