Steel & Glass - Supreme Shower Design From MatkiMatki Showering has unveiled its latest enclosure design - the New Classica Shower; a collection of highly polished stainless steel surrounds available in straight, corner and recess variants, to suit any shape or size of bathroom.

The New Classica is an elegant addition to the extensive collection of shower enclosures offered by Matki Showering:

The shower’s frame is produced from high quality stainless steel, which is polished to give a stylish and glamorous look to any luxury bathroom.

Steel has hardwearing properties and is therefore able to easily support the toughened glass, which is 10mm thick.
 
The shower is fitted with a smooth running, soft closure sliding door, which quietly pulls itself shut.
 
 The chrome column shower head, compliments the design and offers either a deluge, or handheld shower to bathe under.
 
 The low profile tray brings minimalist style to the shower, eliminating the need to step up and into the enclosure, whilst adding a wet room  feel.

The shower waste is an unusual rectangular shape produced from stainless steel that can be lifted allowing easy access for cleaning. 

Matki Showering continues to create a showering experience, which combines invigorating design with uncompromising construction.
