The Slide Tap brings the subtle movements of controlling the smartphone slider, like the one employed and made famous by Apple's iPhone and iPad products, to the bathroom. Zeyu Zeng's faucet design, which can control the flow of water and adjust the preset temperature, enables the productive usage of water while conserving energy.
The faucet comes installed with a touch control for both water flow and temperature, and also has a temperature monitor.

The shiny, graceful fixture Slide Tap gives the bathroom a sophisticated touch while continuing to foster the eco-friendly mindset to revolutionize the bathroom.
