Infinity Drain
Infinity Drain has introduced a standard 30"x60" Stainless Steel Shower Base for residential and commercial bathrooms. The stainless steel shower bases can integrate for either curb or curbless (barrier free) showers. Engineered to save installers time, these bases are made from 304L 16-gauge stainless, arrive factory flood-tested and ready for installation with an integral drain, pre-sloped floor and primed for tile installation.

Laticrete
Hydro Ban Cementitious Waterproofing Membrane is a single-component, polymer-fortified cement-based waterproofing material that requires only water for mixing. Designed to perform under both negative and positive hydrostatic pressure up to two bars (29 pounds per square inch), this waterproofing membrane is ideal for use in swimming pools and can be used to waterproof spas and water features.

Oatey
Oatey 130 Series Shower Drain for tile shower bases are designed for use with tile or marble showers where a shower pan liner is used. The three-part drain includes a base, a reversible clamp collar, and a threaded barrel. The reversible clamping collar adds 1” of height. The Oatey 130 Series Shower Drain includes a quarter- turn, tool-free test plug that can be removed by hand or by a notched pipe. Configurations come in square or round, snap-in or screw-in, and polished stainless steel, brushed nickel, or oil-rubbed bronze finishes.

QuickDrain
The linear WallDrain from QuickDrain USA allows for the most seamless and unique curbed or curbless shower design possible—by installing the drain in the wall itself—rendering it virtually invisible. Nearly any solid surface tile can be installed in the drain’s magnetic vertical cover. The integrated drain, combined with a pre-sloped shower pan and waterproofing, represents a total shower solution for eliminating leaks and standing water.

Schluter Systems
Schluter’s Trendline textured color-coated aluminum profiles in the square shape (Quadec) and the rounded shape (Rondec) profiles are now available in 10-foot (3.05 m) lengths which are ideally suited for the growing design choice for high tiled walls in many areas of the home, including showers. The longer profile lengths minimize visible connecting joints for a cleaner final appearance and they reduce material waste on the job site.
