Rectangular Shower Trays

A rectangular shower tray collects water and directs it towards the waste while supporting the enclosure or wet-room screen above. Its longer shape provides extra standing space and works well along a straight wall, inside a recess, or in a bathroom corner. Rectangular trays are commonly used in ensuites, family bathrooms, accessible layouts, and bath-to-shower conversion projects.
