Enhancing Mobility in the Bathroom

Stormtech’s linear drains are a seamless addition to shower spaces drastically improving mobility and accessibility in often crowded bathrooms and facilities.

The bathroom is often a challenging space to design and organise, with so many amenities and fixtures required to make it fully functional. There’s a fine line in striking the balance correctly between practicality and aesthetics, and sometimes, it’s the little things that get missed in the design process. Accessibility and mobility is element in bathrooms that is becoming increasingly important, particularly in regards to those with reduced mobility, from the aged to the disabled, and even those who have a propensity for stubbing their toes when entering and leaving the shower.

Set directly into the floor, the water drainage solutions enable easier maneuverability when transitioning from bathroom to shower for both the resident and carers alike, whilst also complying with Australian Building Code requirements.

Suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications, the linear drain offerings are sleek in design, with an elegant and ultra-modern look that subtly complements any bathroom aesthetic.
