Shower wall panels typically fall into one of these three classifications >
PVC Shower Panels - PVC shower boards are completely waterproof, low cost and are easy to install on a DIY basis, these type of bathroom shower panels are the only panels without a solid core, instead they come with an internal construction consisting of a honey comb pattern. At 10mm in depth these panels are a solid PVC construction board.
Solid Core Shower Boards - As the name indicates, these shower wall panels are constructed from a solid core material, consisting of either MDF or plywood, with a waterproof covering laminate.
Acrylic Shower Panels - Although more of an expensive option than PVC or solid core boards, the effect these panels give is exceptional. Offering many types of prints from botanical through to geometric prints, you can even pick any colour to create a bright statement wall or something more subtle - all we need from you is a colour reference, or, supply us with your own image.

PVC Shower Panels -
The shower panels in this collection are available in 600mm & 1000mm widths and are all 2.4 metres in length. Our one metre wide panels are our most popular, being wider than the 6000mm width panels in the range the one metre panels are the perfect size for waterproofing your shower area as provide maximum coverage. With a 10mm depth these shower panels are very hard wearing and will not crack or fault during high impact.

From the staple high gloss white shower panel through to a tiled effect grey herringbone shower board, our PVC panels provide something for all tastes & interiors, whilst offering the same benefits of a premium product. The industry has come a long way since the invention of PVC panelling, and the designs that are available today, offer a number of colours and designs to ensure they compliment a variety of styles.
PVC boards tend to be much lighter than solid core, and acrylic shower boards. This is because the internal core is not a solid mass, alternatively, it has a honey comb rigid internal construction.
Whilst PVC are the cheapest option often they are the most sensible too, thanks to their PVC material these panels will not warp, or rot, and expansion and contraction is irrelevant. MDF or plywood solid core panels, although sturdy if they are not installed properly they can be known to let water ingress in resulting in blown and warped panels. To avoid incorrect installation of solid core panels you should ensure that you get a reputable fitter to install. Don’t be deceived by the lower price of PVC panels, these are not a low quality or inferior choice, they are cheaper as a result of the material used to manufacture, the price does not affect the overall quality. PVC panels come with a 10 year guarantee and are just reliable as our other higher end shower panels in the range.
