The UK’s leading
manufacturer of mixer, electric, power and digital showers, Mira Showers, has
launched a 25mm, low-level shower tray, the Mira Flight Level, which has been
specially designed to accommodate the entire family's needs, combining stylish
aesthetics with function.
With
multigenerational living on the rise, Mira Showers recognised the demand for an
accessible solution that could provide an open and spacious showering space for
a wet-room look, while still offering the reliability of a light and strong
shower tray.
As with all products
within Mira's Flight range, the new tray is made from durable, acrylic-capped
resin stone, is scratch and chip resistant, and features BioCote technology to
reduce bacteria and mould growth by up to 99.9%.
The BioCote
antibacterial treatment incorporates anti-microbial silver ion technology
directly into the Mira Flight Level tray. It protects the surface for the
lifetime of the product, complementing cleaning products to provide additional
protection 24 hours a day.
The Flight Level's
lightweight design features a honeycomb pattern for added reassurance and easy
installation. Stringent analysis was also carried out, including a 25-stone
load test and a heat test, to ensure the tray could endure high temperatures.
One of the tray's
unique selling points is that end users can choose the Flight Level in a Welsh
Slate style, as well as the more traditional white tray. Innovative 3D-printing
technology enabled Mira Showers to replicate the slate material, providing a unique,
realistic shower tray design.
The Flight Level's
removable waste trap, which has been discreetly designed into the side of the
tray, is the best in class for chemical resistance and water tightness, and has
been specially designed to prevent blockages and leakages.
Roland Boal, head of
industrial design at Mira Showers, said: “With both adult children and the
older generation living at home for longer, it's important that installers are
equipped with the right tools and information to be able to offer the most suitable
showering products, and our new 25mm shower tray provides families with a
stylish and safe solution.
“Extensive research
and testing went into the launch of the Flight Level tray to ensure the product
could benefit both the installer and end user. We worked with a well-known
housebuilder from the conception stage, as well as our Installer Clubs, which are
based throughout the UK. The installers blind-tested the tray, with a high
percentage choosing the product over similar competitor options.
"This gives us
the reassurance that we're bringing to market a tray that is practical, stylish
and easy to fit, enabling customers to futureproof their homes with a universal
showering solution."
