They are integrated into the spouts of washbasin, kitchen and bathtub faucets and seem fairly unremarkable at first glance. Yet faucet aerators are important components that we use on a daily basis.
Functions of faucet aerators
- User comfort: aerators produce a gentle, splash-free water flow and shape the water stream to give it different patterns.
- Conserving resources: numerous models help save water and energy.
- Compliance with legal requirements: aerators are indispensable throughout the world for meeting national standards, regulations and legislation.
Stream patterns
NEOPERL faucet aerators shape the water stream to give it different patterns. The spectrum ranges from laminar, aerated and spray to multi-stream. Our › video gives you a further impression of the various possibilities. They allow you to select stream shapes according to your individual requirements and design preferences.
Aerated stream
The aerator adds air to the water flowing through the faucet. This creates a soft, aerated stream that feels pleasant and plentiful.
Laminar stream
A vortex-free flow makes the laminar stream appear crystal clear and natural – for a feeling of extra cleanliness. This is a real trend in Japan and a hygiene factor in hospitals.
Spray stream
The spray stream provides full coverage of the hands with a low flow. Sprays are recommended for use in public lavatories.
Multi-stream
A multi-stream combines two different stream types in one aerator. The integrated switching function makes it easy to change between the two stream types.
Product groups
Neoperl offers you a comprehensive range of aerators in different product groups to meet your needs.
Aerators with housing
The classic solution with insert, washer and housing. Find out all about the various sizes and designs.
Aerators with integrated thread
Discover our aerators with built-in thread for direct attachment to the spout of the faucet.
Aerators in special designs
These aerators that are specially developed for designer faucets give you the freedom to find creative solutions. Thanks to their various shapes and sizes, they open up a wide range of design options.
Dual mode aerators
These clever aerators provide multiple flow rates or stream patterns in one. They allow you to change from a lower to a higher flow rate, or switch between different streams.
Use aerators as problem solvers
Many models are available with additional features, for example, to save water, prevent limescale, increase user comfort, or improve the quality of the water stream through self-cleaning.
Helpful features
SLC: limescale protection
Thanks to the soft elastomer surface, you can easily remove limescale deposits on the underside of the aerator. Simply rub them off with your finger.
SSR: adjust the water stream angle
For aerators with SSR function, the angle of the water stream can be adjusted. This saves you having to replace the faucet if the water stream hits the basin at an angle that is less than optimum.
AC: automatic cleaning function
Aerators with AC self-cleaning function automatically flush out particles measuring up to 0.7 mm. Especially in sandy regions, this greatly improves the quality of the water stream.
What is the flow rate of my aerator?
Aerators are available in many different flow rates. To help you navigate our range of products, we have developed a color coding system. Our watercolours concept makes it easy for you to distinguish between the various models in terms of flow rate and stream pattern. It also facilitates the production process and the procurement of spare parts.

Water-saving technologies in faucet aerators
Many NEOPERL aerator models help you save water and energy.
Stream shapers for non-pressurized water heaters
If you are using a non-pressurized water heater with low-pressure faucets, you will need a special stream shaper. Conventional aerator models create a pressure drop that is too high for these applications.
Neoperl offers the › NEOSTRAHL and FS Dripless stream shapers, which are specially designed for low-pressure faucets.
Low supply pressure
In low-pressure markets with a pressure range between 0.1-1 bar, only the gravity generated in the building is responsible for the water pressure. The height of the water tank above the faucet determines the line pressure at the faucet/draw-off point.
A standard aerator cannot achieve aeration under these circumstances. Neoperl therefore offers special models that produce a comfortable, aerated stream of water even at low supply pressures.
- Flow rate V
- Flow rate Q
- DUAL CORE aerators
Norms and approvals
Drinking water is our most important nutrient. Around the world, numerous mechanical and hygiene standards and approvals therefore apply to aerators and faucets in order to protect human health.
Noise-reduced models
One example are noise-reduced aerator models, designed to meet mechanical standards. They reduce the flow noise that is transmitted through the installation. Think of the hissing noise in the pipes when the neighbor runs a bath.
The noise requirements for faucets in drinking water installations and their components are defined in Europe by standards such as EN 246.
Neoperl offers you a wide range of noise-reduced aerator models. All the necessary tests are carried out in-house, in our own sound laboratory.
