Roman pre-formed shower floor simplifies wetroom installation

(12/01/2009)

Roman have launched a Pre-formed Shower Floor which is designed to make the installation of a wetroom as simple as possible.

Roman’s Pre-formed Shower Floor can be placed directly down to joists – it is then simply tanked and tiled over to create an ultra modern wetroom. The Pre-formed Floor then creates a natural fall towards the waste – eliminating the need for the installer to create the drainage slope with adhesive.

The Pre-formed Shower Floor is manufactured from Roman Stone, a self-reinforcing material which allows it to be placed directly onto the joists, without the need for additional under-floor support, resulting in an easy to install system. It is available in two sizing options: 1000 x 1000mm and 1350 x 850mm, with new sizes to be introduced later in the year.

The Pre-formed Shower Floor can be trimmed to size on site so the outlet avoids joists if necessary and the off-centre waste is also designed to ease installation.

The new Pre-formed Shower Floor is the ideal partner for the Roman Shield Tanking System, which offers everything you need to tank a wetroom in one easy to use kit. The combined use of these two products simplifies the installation of a wetroom, whilst also giving installers and consumers the reassurance of a tray.

The Pre-formed Shower Floor is available with two waste assemblies – one for use with tiles and one for use with vinyl flooring.

David Osborne, Managing Director at Roman, commented: “We are very excited about the launch of our Pre-formed Shower Floor, as are many of our retailers who saw a preview of the product at last year’s KBB exhibition. Wetrooms are becoming more common place in the UK, but many of us are still wary of them – this Pre-formed Shower Floor simplifies the installation process and offers added reassurance and total security to both installers and the home owner. The product also carries a ten year guarantee, for true peace of mind.”
