This brand new mixer collection from Phoenix delivers stunning architectural design while standing up to tough Australian conditions.
Over the last two years, we have grown to appreciate the benefits of outdoor living. Consequently, architects and landscape designers have all been laser-focused on providing functional outdoor spaces that give us the health and wellness benefits of fresh air and connection to nature.
The design of outdoor environments, especially in harsh climates, poses a unique design challenge. How can we create spaces that combine style with functionality, all while being able to stand up to Australia’s tough, and sometimes unpredictable, weather?

Choosing quality fittings and fixtures is the first step in creating spaces that are made to last. Able to withstand the toughest conditions, Phoenix’s new collection – Vivid Slimline SS – is ideally suited for outdoor living, particularly in coastal areas.
The international award-winning research and design team at Phoenix designed Vivid Slimline SS as an evolution of the brand’s popular Vivid Slimline range. Expertly crafted from 316 marine-grade stainless steel, the Vivid Slimline SS collection offers superior corrosion resistance, providing extra years of life and usage where harsh elements are present. This new collection, which comes with a lifetime warranty on the finish, went through a rigorous testing and manufacturing process, including corrosion testing on various grades of stainless steel, including 304, before deciding to proceed with the higher marine-grade 316.

The Vivid Slimline SS collection’s trademark toughness does not come at the cost of aesthetics. Like the Vivid Slimline collection, Vivid Slimline SS has a refined, slender profile with an added thin, elegant, extended pin lever, delivering stunning architectural design.
“Vivid Slimline SS is a celebration of the raw material and is designed to echo the craftsmanship and textures of 316 stainless steel,” says Phoenix Design Lead, Ban Liu.
The products offered in this collection include:
Like all of Phoenix’s products, Vivid Slimline SS is manufactured to a high quality. Precision and durability are no exception, with Phoenix offering a 15-year warranty period on the cartridge, seven years on product and parts, one year on labour and a lifetime warranty on the finish for the entire collection.

With Vivid Slimline SS, Phoenix builds on its reputation of nurturing Australian design talent and advocating for uniquely designed taps, mixers, showers, and accessories. Throughout its 30-year history, Phoenix has designed products that meet the unique needs of Australian consumers, with solutions to suit any modern interior or exterior.
Today, Phoenix is a leader within the Australian plumbing industry, winning multiple awards, including a Best of the Best Red Dot, as recognition of its commitment to excellence and innovation.
