Black is the new white in bathroom design with this bold statement colour making star appearances in the form of tapware, tiles, marble vanities and plush towels. It can define a space, add a sense of drama or inject a feeling of luxury and glamour into virtually any style of bathroom.

Englefield, one of New Zealand’s leading bathroom suppliers, has introduced a new shower, the Valencia Elite, delivering a contemporary, easy-to-install shower in a beautiful matt black.

Available in square corner or alcove options, the Valencia Elite comes in two sizes, 1000 x 1000mm and 900 x 900mm, with a 2000mm height (including tray) and powder coated black aluminium frame. The look is sleek, smart and utterly timeless.

The shower, with its reversible pivot door and edge capping, features 6mm toughened safety glass and an interior treated with CleanLess easy clean glass protection.

The shower’s optional flat or Corner Contour Plus walls, in premium quality Duracryl acrylic, are treated with anti-bacterial technology to inhibit growth of bacteria and reduce stains and odours.

Style and convenience are both key features of the new Valencia Elite showers; maintenance is kept to a minimum with the easy clean surfaces and installation is a speedy process, right down to the low-profile quick-fit tray with extra watertight 40mm upstand. A chrome easy clean trap and adhesive pack are included with the shower.

The Valencia Elite is available as a complete shower enclosure, as a tile option (tray and door set) for tiled walls or as a door-set-only for fully tiled installations.

Englefield bathroom products are available nationally from all leading building and plumbing merchants.
