Their low-profile shower pan designs compliment contemporary shower wall panels or large format tile designs.

While it’s nice to have natural stone shower pans for an upscale remodel, they can be pricey. These acrylic shower bases will compliment your look, while being light on the budget.
Are you constantly banging your elbows on the sliding doors in your 30” deep alcove shower? You don’t want to install ugly shower curtains with a cheap-looking curved shower rod.

If you install a new shower, then a few years later a family member can’t get into the space, now you have a ‘re-remodel’ on your hands (and lots of wasted money). The ‘Contempo’ line is stylishly designed to fit your needs today (and tomorrow). Choose low-profile shower pans, or even accessible bases which won’t compromise looks.

Yes – you’re not limited by what type of glass you use. However, with the curved and seated bases it’s far simpler (and more cost-effective) to pair the Contempo modern shower pans with the glass systems which are made for them.
Low profile (3” of shorter) curbs are preferred with contemporary designs likes Minimalist, Modern Farmhouse, Transitionalist and Mid-Century Modern.
10 years – although these bases will last much longer.
Yes – tile pans are time-consuming to install due to the amount of preparation and cutting tiles. Acrylic pans install in a fraction of the time.
This is not a simple to do and is not recommended. Since the base is the ‘foundation’ of the shower – and will have flanges which go behind your wall surround materials – it’s best to install the base and then put in new wall panels or wall tiles.
The simplest way is to use soap and water – or other non-abrasive cleaners.
Low profile (3” or lower) and accessible shower pans are best for someone who wants to stay in their homes longer.
Since acrylic pans are made in a mold, the shower drain cannot be moved. You can get flexibility by using the ‘FlexPan’ and moving the drain from one side to another. Generally, if you want a custom drain location a custom cultured shower pan is best.
