The benefits of shower panels
Discover the advantages of shower panels over tiles and decide whether they are appropriate for your bathroom.
Quick and easy to install
Tiles take hours to install, but shower panels go up much faster. They are available in huge sheets that may be cut to size and do not require grouting. Stick each panel to the wall and then seal the edges to make it watertight.
Shower wall panels can normally be installed over existing tiles, eliminating the need to remove them first. This means less dust and mess, as well as no waiting for adhesive or grout to dry before using your bath or shower.
Easy to clean
Shower panels require less upkeep than tiles because they do not utilise grout. To remove watermarks or soap stains, wash them with warm soapy water and a gentle cloth. More bathroom cleaning advice can be found in our dedicated guide.
Durable and leakproof
Mira wall panels are constructed of acrylic-capped resin stone. This scratch and chip-resistant and non-discoloring material will keep your bathroom looking new for a longer period of time.
Reduced risk of mould
Because bathrooms are frequently the most humid rooms in the house, mould and mildew can develop.Mould and mildew thrive in grout between tiles, however wall panels prevent this issue. Mira wall panels also include BioCote® technology, which reduces bacteria and mould growth by up to 99.9%.
Cost effective
Shower wall panels cost more than tiles because of the style, colour, size, and finish you choose. Shower wall panels are frequently less expensive than high-quality tiles. Tiling can also be more expensive in terms of labour, whereas wall panels are simple to install oneself.

Wall panels are a versatile solution because they may be used in shower enclosures, baths or behind the sink. Mira wall panels are also available in a variety of sizes, including full-height panels for showers.Our wall panels may be readily cut to fit any room.
