Bathtub and shower
tray materials
When choosing the bathtub or shower
tray, material choice depends on individ-
ual preference and intended use. In order
to be able to provide the right solution for
all situations, LAUFEN provides four differ-
ent materials:
Sentec
Bathing in a bathtub made of solid surface
material Sentec feels like being in a natural
basin. Due to a high percentage of miner-
al particles, the surface feels smooth. The
innovative material also allows an incredi-
ble freedom of design: almost every shape
is feasible – from very organic to very
straight and architectural. Furthermore
the non-porous surface of the material
is hygienic, durable, UV-resistant, highly
resistant to scratches and can be effort-
lessly cleaned.
Steel
Bathtubs and shower trays in enamelled
steel are hygienic, and resistant to acid,
scratching, impacts and abrasion. LAUFEN
steel bathtubs are produced using heavy 3
and 3.5 mm enamelled steel; they are ex-
tremely dimensionally stable and come
with an anti-slip coating. In addition, they
are fitted with a sound insulation system.
Acrylic
Bathtubs and shower trays made of
sanitary acrylic have benefits due to
the insulating properties of the materi-
al and its warm surface. Together with an
underlay made of hard foam, the
material helps your bath water retain its
temperature for a long time. LAUFEN san-
itary acrylic is integrally coloured, is light
and colour fast and easy to clean.
Marbond
Marbond is a composite material made
of two layers which are extremely well
connected with each other: The basis
is formed by a high-quality mineral cast-
ing material, the surface is coated with
a two millimetre thick acrylic layer.
Marbond is hygienic, easy to clean, tem-
perature resistant according to EN 263 and
anti-slip (class C).
Lighting
Coloured lighting appeals to all senses.
A LED strip in the overflow slot (used in
Kartell • LAUFEN bathtubs) creates a re-
laxing atmosphere. Usually the colours of
the LED lights change continuously, but
one colour can also be selected via the
sensor control system or remote control.
Sensors
The wellness functions of the LAUFEN
whirlpool can also be controlled by
touch-sensitive areas on the bathtub rim:
The system is safe, scratch-resistant, hy-
gienic and easy to clean – and does not
detract from the aesthetic of the bathtub.
Styrofoam
carrier
A bathroom which is installed properly
and perfectly arranged helps to achieve
a balanced and harmonic atmosphere.
That’s why LAUFEN offers a suitable
styrofoam carrier for each drop-in bath-
tub (except the ones with whirl system).
These carriers simplify the mounting of the
bathtub enormously: mounting is quicker
and cleaner, because there is no bricking
necessary, and tiling is also much easier
on the perfectly accurate surface of these
unseen helpers.
Installation kit
The LAUFEN installation kit made of hard
foam allows a wide range of shower trays
to be installed flush with the floor – and
also assists with sound and heat insula-
tion. A protective peripheral strip securely
permanently prevents water from entering
between the tiles and tray.
LAUFEN bathtubs and shower trays
conform to applicable European stand-
ards and are tested and monitored on-site
by the independent testing institute LGA
Quali Test GmbH.
