Following on from our recent blog post about independent living, we asked our friends at Mira Showers, the UK’s No 1 showering manufacturer, for some expert advice around bathroom safety and what to look out for when buying your shower tray.
As we get older and spend more time in our homes, bathroom safety becomes increasingly important—especially for those with multi-generational families including children and the elderly. However, having a safe bathroom environment shouldn’t mean compromising on style.
Mira Showers have dedicated New Product Development and Industrial Design teams who are committed to designing award-winning products with genuine user benefits. One such product is the award-winning Mira Flight Safe shower tray. Let’s take a look at what makes these Mira shower trays so innovative…
Fitting an anti-slip shower tray doesn't mean having to compromise on style
Adding a safe & stylish shower enclosure
When looking to create the ultimate safe bathroom, especially for those requiring bathroom aids, the best solution can often be to remove the bath, and replace with a shower tray and complementary enclosure. One of the most daunting and difficult parts of the daily bathroom routine is stepping in and out of the bath, however, with a Mira Flight Safe walk-in tray, this worry is instantly removed.
By combining any of the Mira Flight Safe shower trays with a shower enclosure, you can easily create a stylish and easily accessible showering area, without having to go to the expense of creating a wet room. This innovative shower tray range has a super-slim 40mm height making it one of the lowest trays on the market. This slimline design ensures a slick and contemporary look for your bathroom, effortlessly creating a design that gives the appearance of a wet room.
Providing a solid and stable base, the Mira Flight Safe shower tray has been awarded the 2017 Queen's Award for Enterprise: Innovation
In choosing the Mira Flight Safe shower tray, you are choosing a shower tray with award-winning safety benefits—cleverly combining innovation and safety. The Mira Flight Shower range is made from durable acrylic-capped resin stone, making it an anti-slip tray like no other. The whole tray is covered in the exclusive Mira Safe coating, which exceeds the most stringent anti-slip tests (Mira Flight Safe passes at Class C—the highest grade). The Mira Flight Safe tray was recently awarded the 2017 Queen’s Award for Enterprise: Innovation, one of the UK’s most prestigious awards, for its anti-slip surface.
The tray surface is not only anti-slip, it also comes complete with Biocote® technology which reduces bacteria and mould growth by up to 99.9%, for a cleaner and longer-lasting tray. This clever technology makes the shower tray resistant to scratches, chips and discolouration which may occur over time.
Design options
Whatever your bathroom space, there is a Mira Flight Safe shower tray for you. The configuration options include pentagon, square, walk-in, rectangle and quadrant. Each tray has an optional riser kit, featuring easy push-fit legs to raise the tray off the floor if required. Plus, you have the option of integrated tiling up-stands for watertight confidence. This shower tray not only looks great, but won't compromise on performance either. Integrated into this shower tray is a vortex waste, which allows water to drain rapidly at a speed of around 20-30 litres per minute.
