Stone resin is an increasingly popular material for the manufactures of modern shower trays, as it has numerous properties that make it a versatile material that offers many advantages.
It is currently one of the most commonly used materials as an alternative to ceramic if you want to create a perfect blend of elegance and functionality in the shower.
Advantages of stone resin shower trays
When we talk about stone resin, we mean a 100% natural and environmentally friendly material. It is a recycled marble, i.e. an ancient rock composed of the mineral dolomite, which is extracted from mountain deposits in the European Union and then subjected to various treatments, including grinding, cleaning and finishing, pressing and polishing. The material is then impregnated and coated with gelcoat, a special pigmented resin with many quartz particles. To obtain a particularly elegant material that is perfect for a modern bathroom, you can also opt for matt colours.
One of the strengths of this material, which has become extremely popular in recent years, is that it can be used to make ultra-flat shower trays just 25 mm thick, which are used in the most fashionable bathrooms.
Another advantage of stone resin shower trays is that they allow maximum personalisation of the bathroom, thanks to the various shapes and colours, these elements can be adapted to any style. Unlike ceramic shower trays, they offer great installation flexibility and can be customised to fit perfectly into tight spaces, niches or irregular walls.
Thanks to these shower trays in different trendy colours, which our company offers in different sizes in the classic white colour as well as in anthracite, matt grey and matt cream, the designer bathroom is given a special look.
Stone resin is also a durable material that is impact- and scratch-resistant. One of its advantages is that the inside is identical to the surface, so scratches are less noticeable. The non-slip surface ensures high safety standards, while the ability of this material to retain heat provides an extremely pleasant tactile sensation which we rarely experience with more traditional ceramic shower trays.
Last but not least, the advantage of stone resin lies in its durability. It requires exceptionally little maintenance to remain beautiful and functional over time. The end result is truly sophisticated, whether you combine it with a classic shower enclosure or opt for other solutions, such as a walk-in shower with just a simple, frameless glass wall.
