Modern Design For Today’s Urban Kitchen And Bathrooms By Moen
Today’s kitchen and bathrooms are favouring a sleek, modern styling style. Moen has answered this call with the 90°™ collection. Featuring a minimalist design, the collection offers geometric, 90-degree-angled lines – and a unique waterfall presentation in the bath – all engineered with the latest, most sophisticated Moen technology.
”Compared to fifty percent globally, eighty percent of Canadians live in urban areas, making it extremely important to provide products meeting the unique design needs of urban loft and condominium settings,” said Carmelo Tripodi, wholesale product manager, Moen Canada. “90° provides a sleek, uncluttered look that transcends seamlessly from the kitchen to the bath.”
In addition to its unique styling, all of the single-handle faucets in the collection feature Moen’s 1255™ Duralast™ cartridge. This state-of-the-art ceramic-disc cartridge provides the highest levels of quality and durability for the life of the faucet, and is just another example of how Moen Canada continues to lead the faucet industry in innovation.

Ideal for solid-surface countertops, the 90° collection features single-hole, single-mount faucets in both standard and pullout models. The square lines and high-arcing spouts give a modern kitchen an additional touch of sophistication. The ergonomically designed pullout wand features an easy-turn swivel joint on the end of the hose and three functions: spray, aerated stream and pause. Moen’s patented pause button allows users to interrupt the water flow while moving the spout outside of the sink, making it ideal for watering plants and filling large pots. Additionally, the pullout hose is made of fibre for quiet operation.

Available in a Chrome finish, the 90° collection stands apart with its clean, geometric lines to accentuate the look of any modern bath. The faucets make a bold statement in both a single-handle, single-hole mount (with optional vessel extension to accommodate vessel sink applications); as well as a two-handle widespread style.
Moen’s innovative M●PACT® valve system is available on the 90° eight-inch widespread faucet, tub/shower and the three- or four-hole Roman tub faucets. This revolutionary valve architecture makes it quick and easy to change the style of the bath without replacing any faucet plumbing.
The allure of these bathroom faucets is not limited to style alone. Each faucet has been certified to meet WaterSense® criteria, meaning the fixtures meet the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) guidelines as an environmentally responsible and efficient product. Each new faucet is flow-optimized and allows water to flow at 5.7 litres per minute (L/min), versus standard flow at 8.3 L/min. This provides consumers the sensational water experience they are accustomed to, while reducing water usage by up to 32 percent.
Moving into the shower, the 90° collection can be installed using Moen’s Posi-Temp® pressure-balancing valves or Moentrol® pressure-balancing volume-control valves. Both offer a unique water-efficient showerhead that features a flow rate of 6.6 L/min – 30 percent less than the industry standard of 9.5 L/min. The showerhead utilizes Moen’s Immersion™ technology to provide a sustainable shower with the same level of performance consumers have come to expect from Moen.
For a completely designer look in the bath, coordinating bath accessories are also available, including a toilet tank lever, robe hook, pivoting paper holder, 18- and 24-inch towel bars and a towel ring.
