INDIANAPOLIS - Through continued market analysis, Delta Faucet identified a growing need for quality, cost-effective faucets. In October 2009, Delta Faucet launched its new Foundations line, including two new product suites, Core-B and Windemere, which offers relevant technologies at a lower price point.

The new Foundations line offers full bath and kitchen suites, including a kitchen pull-out option, through the Core-B series. The Windemere series, offers a full bath suite with an attractive "J-spout" architecture.

"Core-B targets consumers building a home where price management is the key focus, while Windemere offers a more stylized option at a minimal price point," said Sam Straub, Delta and Peerless products director. "Though cost-efficient, the Foundations line does not deviate from Delta Faucet's mission to find a smarter way to experience water. The Core-B and Windemere series offer many ‘Smart Features.'"
