About Shower Bases
SHOWERS ARE IN
MTI produces a full range of over 50 high-quality shower bases, with a wide selection of high-end shower enclosures and genuine teak accessories. Boutique Collection bases are constructed of Engineered Solid-Surface material, which is a mixture of ground minerals and high-performance resins that are liquefied, poured and then hardened. These "molded stone" shower bases feature a low-profile, multiple-threshold design for versatile installation, great looks and easy entrance. These bases are high in both design and function.

Rainbath bases are constructed of Lucite® cross-linked cast acrylic with strong reinforced backing to eliminate flexing of the floor pan. They are attractive and easy to clean. Some are single threshold, and others are low-profile, multiple-threshold, which means that they can be specified from the factory to accept glass enclosures on one, two or three sides. The low-profile design not only presents a very clean look, but it also makes entrance and exit easier. Taking this one step further, if a zero-barrier entrance is desired, the low-profile, multiple threshold shower bases can easily be recessed in the floor. When used in combination with a genuine teak shower tray, a flat transition is created between bathroom floor and shower. Another alternative is MTI's new Barrier-Free shower base made specifically for easy, seamless transfer from bathroom space to shower.
Shower bases have been gaining increased attention within the last several years, and for several reasons. In part this increase has been driven by a trend toward more spacious showers. With busy schedules and hectic lifestyles, people are finding that they take more showers than baths. Hence, there is a desire to make the shower space more attractive, more roomy, more functional.
A second reason for increased focus on showers is the state of the economy. In today's market, many people are remodeling their bathrooms because they realize they will be staying in their current home for a good while because moving is not an option. So why not make the bathroom as beautiful and comfortable as possible to maximize their enjoyment of it? Larger showers or seated shower bases can make a big difference.
The third reason has to do with the changing profile of the American family: multiple generations living within one household. To meet the needs of all with comfort and style, bathrooms are being remodeled with multi-generational design in mind, that is, incorporating products that are of a more universal design. Shower Bases from MTI embody good, smart design, exemplifying beauty combined with practicality and versatility.
So whether you are planning a new construction or a bathroom remodeling project, keep MTI shower bases in mind. In either acrylic or Engineered Solid-Surface, MTI bases are the smart, attractive alternative to other shower bases on the market. Manufactured in the USA, they offer clean contemporary design, unsurpassed quality and extreme durability.
