Every faucet begins as solid brass. In the hot forging stage, heated brass is pressed into precision steel dies under high pressure to form the faucet body. Forging creates a dense, uniform structure with fewer internal gaps than many casting methods. That means a stronger body that is built to handle daily water pressure for years.

Where precision lays the foundation.

Once forged, each body moves to CNC machining. Computer-controlled machines cut threads, drill water channels and shape the cartridge seat to programmed dimensions. Because every cut follows a digital program, each piece matches the last. Fittings connect easily and cartridges seat perfectly.

Precision technology shapes every critical detail.

Accuracy must be proven, not assumed. Our quality team uses digital measuring instruments to check critical dimensions such as thread size, bore diameter and sealing surfaces. Parts outside tolerance are stopped before they move ahead. Only correct parts reach polishing and assembly.

Precise dimensional checks ensure consistency across every critical detail.

A perfect finish starts with a perfect surface. Skilled technicians polish every brass body on high speed buffing wheels to remove tool marks and fine scratches. This step decides how smooth and mirror like the final finish will look. Even the smallest flaw is cleared before plating.

Every surface refined to reveal its true finish.

Polished components go through a controlled surface finishing line with multiple cleaning and plating stages. Racked parts move through each tank in sequence, so every surface gets an even, durable coating. This is what gives ARBO faucets their lasting shine. The same care goes into designer finishes such as Gold, Rose Gold and Matt Black.

Advanced surface finishing brings lasting beauty to every faucet.

In the assembly area, every component comes together: cartridges, O-rings, spindles, aerators and handles. Technicians work against a set bill of materials, so each faucet gets exactly the right parts. Careful fitting of the cartridge and seals is what gives a smooth handle feel and a drip free life.

Every component is carefully assembled for seamless fit and lasting performance.

Every assembled faucet is checked on water testing benches. Each piece is connected to a live water supply to check flow, handle operation, hot and cold mixing and joint tightness. A faucet that fails any check is sent back, never packed. From basin mixers to sink mixers, every model goes through the same discipline.

Rigorous water testing ensures reliable performance, drop after drop.

Water testing shows the visible leaks. Air leakage testing finds the invisible ones. Pressurised air is passed through the body and connections while they sit under water. Even a tiny bubble reveals a weak point. This test is especially critical for concealed products such as the thermostatic diverter, where a hidden leak behind the wall can be costly.

Air leakage testing verifies every connection for dependable performance.

The journey ends with ARBO Nextgen Packaging, where every product gets a digital identity. Each box carries an EAN-13 barcode, a unique serial number and a QR code, along with a product manual and protective packing. Dealers can scan for faster stock and sales handling. Installers can scan the QR code to earn reward points through the ARBOCARE ID app. Customers can register their warranty with ease.

Smart identification. Safer handling. Easier stock and sales.

Industry 4.0 means combining precise machines with digital data, so quality is controlled and every product can be traced. ARBO is building this into its process step by step:

The result is a manufacturing system where every faucet can be traced from production to installation.
