Elements essential for the perfect wetroom floor

[image]

Achieving leak free showers is one of the biggest challenges in the bathroom and the importance of the floor is often overlooked. The Elements brand, manufactured by Abacus Manufacturing Group in the UK, provides bespoke solutions through an integrated, system-based approach with an easy to install tileable wet floor and wall system that achieves a complete wetroom. 

Elements offers the most comprehensive range of wetroom and waterproofing products currently available. It allows totally bespoke bathroom floor solutions that include wetroom trays, with multiple choices of sizes and drain styles, as well as wall and floor boards. 

Based on waterproof structural expanded polystyrene (EPS), Elements has been proven in aggressive environments, including commercial steam rooms. The product offers enormous compressive strength and achieves an excellent insulation value due to its high density, so prevents thermal bridging from cold external surfaces. 

The wall and floor boards that form the Elements range can easily be cut to size on site and then bonded with waterproof adhesive and, where necessary, screwed into place. Joints are sealed and taped to allow for movement, creating a totally waterproof, ‘tanked' solution. Time is saved as the product is lightweight, easy-to-handle, cut and trim. Tiles are easily applied to the surface and the boards can support a greater weight of tiles than plasterboard, long lasting adhesion is not a problem. 

As an added bonus, Elements is made from a recyclable raw material that is kind to the environment and provides long lasting and sustainable solutions for the bathroom, backed by a 15-year guarantee.
