Explore the Best Shower Trays

We know that choosing the best shower tray for your bathroom can be a tricky decision. The wide variety of shower plates available on the market nowadays means that several factors need to be taken into consideration such as the material they are made from, their measurements, the type of screen and, of course, the price.

A bathroom is one of the most important places in a home. That is why different occasions and needs need to be factored in to ensure the comfort, design, and convenience you are after with the fitting of your new shower tray.

 

What is best? A standard shower tray or a bespoke shower tray?

When choosing the best type of shower tray, it is important to take some time to decide if you would prefer a standard or bespoke tray. Both have their pros and cons and depending on each individual’s needs and those of the space itself, you will eventually make a choice between one or the other.

Benefits of a standard shower tray

What is the best  non-slip shower tray? 

Whichever shower tray you go for, it is essential that the surface is non-slip to guarantee maximum safety with every use. That means that before deciding on any model, the non-slip quality of its material must first be assessed.

Several factors need to be considered such as resistance, safety, durability, accessibility and how easy the surface is to clean and maintain. To enjoy a fully non-slip surface, you have to choose resistant materials that do not need to be changed each year due to wear and tear or for any other reason. So, make sure you consider the price-quality relationship of each material when choosing the right shower tray for you. At Cosentino, we know all about the properties needed for a shower tray, and a safe and functional option is Silestone, a secure and resistant material that comes in a wide range of textures and colours.

Resin or stone shower tray?

 Another question often asked when choosing a shower tray, is what is the best material? Resin or stone? Both materials have strong properties in terms of preventing slips, falls, or accidents. However, natural stone shower trays are usually more expensive due to their exclusivity; while resin shower trays tend to be more economical, however the choice of designs is more limited.

Cosentino offers the best of both worlds, so you do not have to choose between one or the other. The Silestone shower tray collection offers an exclusive and completely new design, perfectly adaptable to any space. It also comes in a variety of colours. 

In addition to the designs and colours available, Silestone shower trays also have a wide array of features, properties, and qualities to add extra safety, hygiene and comfort to your bathroom. 

The components used to produce Silestone shower trays make them the best anti-odour option thanks to their unique properties which help keep them clean and therefore prevent any bad odours from appearing in such a damp space. They are also antibacterial, easy to clean and resistant to humidity due to their low porosity. In terms of safety, Silestone shower trays are highly resistant and remain unchanged in different climatic conditions.

They also come in different finishes, sandblasted or soft sandblasted, to ensure their excellent non-slip features. Silestone shower trays are the best option for you and your family.
