CeraFloor Individual is the elegant shower channel that boasts outstanding design. The shower channel comes in a length of 1500 mm and can be shortened to suit the specific shower area. CeraFrame Individual is a compact, short shower channel. The only thing you can see is a discreet 300 x 50 mm rectangle. The short shower channel is the perfect frame for a minimalist cover plate.

Designed to create sleek, stylish wetrooms, the Infinity single-fall wetroom tray by Abacus Elements is the only product of its kind on the market today where the slopes of the tray former and drain are fully integrated and sealed. This ensures straightforward design installation of a leak-free, secure wetroom which oozes class.

For further information on the Steel Window Association, please visit www.steel-window-association. co.uk or call 020 8543 2841. The BIM objects featured in the NBS National BIM Library also includes technical details such as dimensions, ratings, insulation standard classes and electrical specifications to aid architects and specifiers in their design process. 14
