Sterling Discontinues Faucet Line, Cites Competitive Industry
In January, Kohler Co. announced it has discontinued production of its current Sterling brand of bathroom and kitchen faucets.
The company's decision, according to Sterling vice president Pat Albregts, addresses a growing demand from customers for its popular Vikrell[TM] material bathing fixtures, kitchen sinks and shower doors. The company also cited an increasingly "competitive industry category" as a motivator in the decision to cease faucet production.
