Contemporary Acrylic Shower Pans & Bases

All acrylic shower pans are not created equal. Your shower floor pan is the ‘foundation’ of your shower. If it fails everything above it has to go. You’ll need a quality base which will compliment your shower walls and decorative glass which won’t have to replace. Whether you need a low profile pan or a curved or walk in shower base, we’ve got you covered.

Design styles which fit today’s lifestyles and design tastes

Clunky 5” tall fiberglass or mosaic tiled shower pans have no place with today’s fast paced lifestyle. After all, who wants to be scrubbing tile joints or dealing with a yellowed fiberglass shower pan. Many of the bases in this line use high-quality Lucite acrylic which is simple to clean. Their low-profile shower pan designs compliment contemporary shower wall panels or large format tile designs.

Save money vs. natural marble or granite bases

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.
Affordable, space-increasing shapes at ‘standard sized’ prices

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. Here’s a modern-day option. Install a curved shower base and glass enclosure. It’s affordable, cool and will save your elbows.
Easier to install than tile or stone shower pans

Tile shower pans are a time-consuming process (and if they aren’t installed right can be a disaster). Stone pans are heavy and hard to get into small bathrooms. ‘Contempo’ acrylic shower pans are lighter and ready to install right out of the box
Better built than cheap ‘box-store’ shower pans

Your shower base is the ‘foundation’ of the shower. If it cracks, you have a BIG problem. These bases are built to last. They are mounted on multi-density fiberboard (MDF) and reinforced with fiberglass reinforced polymers. You won’t hear any squeaking or cracking when you walk on them.
Different curb heights to fits your family’s needs (today & tomorrow)

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.
Easy to clean

All you’ll need is soap and water to clean your shower base. No toxic chemicals. No more down on your knees cleaning mosaic tile grout joints.
5 designs in one pan saves you money vs. custom pans

Perhaps wanted a 3-glass wall shower. Perhaps you want a larger 60” x 36” corner shower with glass on 2 sides, or a walk in shower base. However, you only find expensive custom pans to make this work. With the ‘Contempo FlexPan’ with the add on flange adapter, you can use the same pan for 5 different shower designs.
Create a relaxing (and safe) shower experience in a standard sized space

If you have a family member with mobility challenges, or you’d like a place to relax in the shower, you’ll want to check out our seated option.
DIY and contractor friendly

Since our bases are built as one unit (no thresholds to attach) you won’t have to worry about leakage (or investing extra time installing) separate curb components.

Acrylic Shower Pan Options

While there are a lot of acrylic shower pans in the market, there aren’t many with the flexibility, fashion-forward designs, safety, strength and relaxation options you’ll find in the Innovate ‘Contempo’ series.

The ‘FlexPan’ Low Profile Acrylic and Cultured Stone Shower Pans

This base is called the ‘FlexPan.’ Using an add on tile or shower wall flange adapter this 3” curb-height, low-profile pan, can be used in 5 shower configurations. Since this ‘cast acrylic base’ is mounted on a sheet of medium-density fiberboard and reinforced with fiberglass reinforced polymers you’ll know it will last:

Frequently Asked Questions About Acrlyic Shower Pans

Can your pans be used with different types (and manufacturers) of glass shower enclosures?

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.

What curb design is best for a Modern Shower Pan design?

Low profile (3” of shorter) curbs are preferred with contemporary designs likes Minimalist, Modern Farmhouse, Transitionalist and Mid-Century Modern.

How long is your guarantee?

10 years – although these bases will last much longer.

Are acrylic Shower pans cheaper to install than tile?

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.

Can I replace my existing base with your acrylic base without removing the existing walls?

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.

How will I clean my base?

The simplest way is to use soap and water – or other non-abrasive cleaners.

What curb height and design do you recommend for someone who wants to ‘age in place?’

Low profile (3” or lower) and accessible shower pans are best for someone who wants to stay in their homes longer.

Can the drain location of your shower pans be moved?

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.
