Blutide Satin Mixers
Satin is the broadest Blutide range here, and it covers the whole house, not only the bathroom. The same fittings repeat in each finish: a standard basin mixer, a high basin mixer, a wall mounted basin and bath trim kit, a bath diverter trim kit, a concealed shower mixer trim kit, a round freestanding bath mixer with hand shower, and for the kitchen a single hole sink mixer, a standard sink mixer, a spray sink mixer and a gooseneck. One range therefore covers basin, bath, shower and kitchen sink.
Which finishes Satin comes in
Five: satin stainless steel, gunmetal, black, brass and chrome. Every title names its finish, so the quickest way to browse is finish first, fitting second. Coverage is close to even across the five but not identical, so if one piece has to match, check it is listed in your finish before committing the rest of the room. Blutide calls its dark finish Black rather than matt black, and its warm one Satin Brass.
If the finish matters more than the range, the store gathers finishes across the whole catalogue on Black, Gunmetal and Brushed Brass. Those pages cut across ranges, which helps when a Satin basin mixer meets a shower from elsewhere.
Trim kits and what sits behind them
Three Satin pieces are trim kits: the wall mounted basin and bath set, the bath diverter and the concealed shower mixer. A trim kit is the visible handle, plate and spout only. The in-wall body it fits onto is listed separately under plumbing and wastes, so order both and confirm the pairing with your plumber before the wall is tiled. The other mixers are complete taps and need nothing built in.
Where Satin sits in the catalogue
Satin, Silk and Lace cover almost the same fittings, so the choice is a styling one, Satin being the only one of the three in stainless steel. By type, see Blutide basin mixers, kitchen mixers, shower mixers and bath mixers, or the full Blutide catalogue.
Frequently Asked Questions
What finishes does the Blutide Satin range come in?
Five finishes are listed: satin stainless steel, gunmetal, black, brass and chrome. Each product title names its finish, so you can read the finish off the listing without opening it. Coverage is close to even across the five, though not every fitting appears in every finish, so check the specific piece you need rather than assuming the whole range is available in one colour.
Does the Satin range cover the kitchen as well as the bathroom?
Yes, and that is the main reason to start with Satin. Alongside the basin, bath and shower fittings it lists a single hole sink mixer, a standard sink mixer, a spray sink mixer and a gooseneck. If you want the kitchen tap to read as part of the same scheme as the bathroom taps, this range makes that possible without matching across two different families.
What is a concealed mixer trim kit and what else do I need?
A trim kit is the part you see once the wall is finished: the handle, the wall plate and, where there is one, the spout. It fits onto a body buried in the wall, which is bought as a separate item and listed under plumbing and wastes. Order both together, and have your plumber confirm the pairing before the chase is closed up, because changing it afterwards means opening tiling.
What is the difference between the Satin, Silk and Lace ranges?
They are close relatives rather than different product categories. All three list much the same fittings: basin mixers, a wall mounted trim kit, a bath diverter, a concealed shower mixer, a freestanding bath mixer and kitchen sink mixers. Satin is the deepest of the three and the only one carrying a stainless steel finish. Beyond that the difference is the shape of the bodies and handles, which the product photographs show better than any description.
Is Satin Brass the same as Blutide brushed brass?
They are named differently in the catalogue. The warm finish in this range is listed as Satin Brass, while the Blutide Brushed Brass page collects the products whose titles use the words brushed brass, which comes mainly from other ranges. If you are matching a brass fitting bought earlier, compare the two on screen and ask us to confirm before you order across ranges.
