How do I decide between a low profile tray and a raised (easy plumb) tray?

If you want a minimalist, almost-level look and a small step into the shower, choose a low profile tray (typical heights 40–45 mm). Pick a raised or easy plumb tray (heights around 135–140 mm) when you cannot run the waste under the floorboards or tiles, because the higher base hides the waste plumbing. Low profile suits modern wet-room or tiled thresholds, while raised trays are more practical where you need space for pipework. Both types include a high-flow waste and a non-slip surface.

Can these trays be trimmed to fit an awkwardly shaped bathroom?

Yes. Podium rectangular trays come in a wide array of sizes and are designed so you can trim them to fit around pipes or awkward walls. You still need to avoid cutting through the waste area or structural ribs, so measure carefully and plan trims before cutting. a 1700 x 700 mm tray can be trimmed at the edge to squeeze into a narrow alcove while keeping the waste centred.

Which tray size is best for an en‑suite versus a family bathroom?

For a small en‑suite, compact options such as 1000 x 700 mm or 1000 x 760 mm give comfortable showering without taking too much floor space. A family bathroom benefits from longer trays like 1200 x 800 mm up to 1700 x 900 mm for more room and easier showering for adults and children. Match the shortest side to your available alcove width and choose a longer length for extra elbow room.

What are the material differences between acrylic‑capped ABS, acrylic‑capped stone resin and Ducostone?

Acrylic‑capped ABS trays are lightweight and easier to handle, making them a good choice for upstairs bathrooms or where weight is a concern. Acrylic‑capped stone resin and Ducostone give a denser, more solid feel underfoot and tend to retain warmth better, but they are heavier. If you need something easier to lift and trim, go for acrylic‑capped ABS; if you want a premium, solid finish choose stone resin or Ducostone.

Are these trays safe and compatible with high‑flow showers and enclosures?

Yes. All Podium trays include a high‑flow shower waste to cope with powerful showers and reduce ponding. They also feature a non‑slip surface for improved safety, useful for family bathrooms. You can pair them with standard shower enclosures to create a complete showering solution, matching a 1200 x 800 mm tray with a corresponding enclosure for neat visual alignment.
