The IN-2000-E / Infinity-Bio reimagines bathing as a shared wellness experience. Its soft, fluid forms evoke the infinity symbol, and ergonomic design with dual backrests and armrests ensures maximum comfort. The matte, silky Cristalplant® surface is solid, sustainable, and antimicrobial, uniting style with high-performance functionality.
