Dearborn® Universal Pop Down® Sink Drain Named Top-Five Finalist in Global Design Awards
The innovative drain was recognized in the 2026 Architizer A+Product Awards, which honor standout products selected by industry leaders
CLEVELAND, July 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dearborn®, part of the Oatey family of companies, is proud to announce that its Universal Pop Down® Sink Drain has been named a top-five finalist in the Kitchen & Bath, Fixtures & Fittings category of the 2026 Architizer A+Product Awards.
The A+Product Awards showcase the building products, materials, lighting, furniture and technologies that help architects design with greater precision, purpose and creativity. Selected by an esteemed panel of industry leaders, finalists represent standout products shaping the future of design and construction.
The recognition underscores the Universal Pop Down Sink Drain’s unique combination of universal compatibility, easy installation, reliable performance and elevated design.
The drain brings flexibility, durability and style together in one streamlined solution. Its universal design works with both overflow and non-overflow bathroom sinks, simplifying product selection across a wide range of applications. A patented, one-piece body helps reduce potential leak paths, while the flush-to-basin profile creates a clean, seamless look and helps prevent small items from slipping down the drain. Push-to-open and lift-to-clean functionality make everyday use and maintenance simple, while tool-free installation helps save time on the job.
The drain is available in tarnish-resistant Chrome, Brushed Nickel and Matte Black finishes to complement today’s bathroom styles.
