Faucet Market Trends for 2023 to Watch for When Choosing Fixtures
The market segment that dominated the faucet industry in 2021 was North America, with a share of 27.5%. Experts attribute this to higher spending on residential (and even some commercial) repairs and renovations. Other trends to watch for that drive this growth include:
- Advancements in touchless technology
- Smart home fixtures
- Rise in urbanization
- Antimicrobial surface for improved hygiene
- Unique textures and finishes
- Desire for luxurious commercial spaces
- Demand for sustainability
You might not want designer sink faucets that feature these trends. Actually, you might be pressed to find one that does meet all the items on the above list. However, trends you should consider when it comes to the style of your faucets are technology, hygiene, and aesthetics.
3 Designer Faucets for Your Sinks
Besides market trends, what are some other things to consider when choosing designer faucets? What functionality do you need? How significant is style to the look of your space? Which can you sacrifice to have a feature you need?
For instance, if you are renovating the fixtures in the bathrooms of a high-end hotel, you will want a faucet that can withstand the heavy use of a high-traffic building. It also needs to match the hotel's décor and style throughout.
Should you sacrifice the look to ensure you get a commercial-grade faucet? Hopefully, you won't have to sacrifice either (or any) of the things you want in a designer faucet. Let's review the top picks for designer sink faucets to give you an idea of what to look for and find one that suits your spaces.
1. EQ® Connect Series in Polished Chrome

2. E-Tronic® 80 Series in Matte Black
Matte black faucet finishes are one growing trend not mentioned above. However, its popularity cannot go unnoticed in both private and public spaces.
Matte black adds a drop of color (sort of) in a room that often looks stark and plain. Installing commercial-grade faucets does not mean you cannot have stylish matte black in the space.
Chicago Faucet's E-Tronic® 80 in matte black merges style, durability, and Smart faucet technology into one. You can even install the matching soap dispenser for the ultimate in luxurious designer fashion in your facilities' restrooms.
Top Features:

Care and maintenance are something to consider when switching fixture finishes. The cleaners you used on chrome taps may not be appropriate for your new fixtures. While the finish on a black matte fixture may take a little extra care, it's much less maintenance than keeping polished chrome looking clean.
3. Alpina Series in Polished Chrome
