What size shower tray should I choose?
The most common sizes are 80x80, 90x90 and 100x80 cm in square format, plus rectangular options such as 120x80 cm for larger showers. Choose according to the space available: measure carefully before buying and check the dimensions of each model on its product page.
Which shower tray material is best?
Acrylic and resin shower trays are the most recommended: lightweight, warm underfoot, anti-slip and easy to maintain. Acrylic gives a glossy, hard-wearing finish, ideal for design-led bathrooms that want durability and simple cleaning.
Are shower trays anti-slip?
An anti-slip finish adds safety in the shower, especially in homes with children or older people, as it reduces the risk of slipping. It is well worth looking for when choosing your shower tray; check the finish and the anti-slip properties stated on each model's product page.
What are the advantages of an ultra-slim shower tray?
Its minimal height, just a few centimetres, allows a flush floor-level entry that is more accessible and looks modern. It is the preferred choice in renovations that replace a bath with a shower.
Can a shower tray be cut to size?
Many resin and acrylic trays can be trimmed to fit the exact opening in your bathroom. Check each product page to see whether it can be cut to size and what the maximum recommended dimensions are.
How is a shower tray installed?
The tray sits on a levelled base, the waste valve is connected and the perimeter is sealed with silicone to keep it watertight. Ultra-slim models can be installed flush with the floor. We recommend professional installation.
How do you clean and maintain a shower tray?
Clean the tray with warm water and a mild soap or a non-abrasive cleaner, then rinse thoroughly to avoid limescale marks. Avoid metal scourers and harsh products. Regular care preserves both the finish and the anti-slip property.
How much does a shower tray cost?
The price depends on the size, the material and the finish. Current pricing is shown on each product page. Our trays combine design, anti-slip safety and durability in a premium quality range.
