Modern bathrooms with Krion® Shell shower trays

30/08/2022

The trend for bathrooms with shower trays is booming. Why? Because interior designers and homeowners alike are realising the wealth of advantages they offer over the traditional bath setup. 

But as well as working out precisely which elements to include in your bathroom and the advantages of each, you need to think about elements such as manufacturing materials and upcoming trends in bathroom design.

Advantages of shower trays in modern bathrooms

Aside from the trend for installing shower trays in modern bathrooms, what are the everyday advantages of having a shower tray?

• They improve accessibility: this is the main advantage of a shower tray, especially for people with reduced mobility. 
• Continuity and more space in the bathroom. They're actually the best choice you can make in a bathroom with limited space. 
• Showers are a lot more practical than the relaxing bubble baths we all dream about - but never have time for. 
• You'll save water and gas/electricity when you shower rather than filling a bath. 
• Showers are much easier to clean. You can get into every bit of it, whereas cleaning a large bath can often be tricky.

Why choose Krion Shell® shower trays?

As we said from the start, as well as thinking about whether to incorporate a bath or shower tray into your bathroom design, you also need to think carefully about the manufacturing materials you go for.

Krion Shell® is a material that offers you the most potential for customisation on the market. It's almost completely non-porous, making it ideal for preventing the spread of the kind of microorganisms we fight against every day to keep our bathrooms hygienic. 

And it's easy to clean. This is a resistant and hard-wearing material, and any imperfections that could arise are easy to clean.

There's also huge potential in terms of colour and texture. And they're all non-slip, which is an important aspect to consider for a shower tray. Krion Shell® contains a minimum of 5% plastic waste in its total composition, contributing to more sustainable, more environmentally-friendly production.

Here are the latest shower tray modern bathroom trends

Let's take a look at the standout trends in bathroom design right now. 

Extra large shower trays for improved comfort

Going for a large shower tray in your bathroom is the perfect choice - for anyone who has the space. Larger models give you a more comfortable shower experience, and can even be used by two people at once.
