AKW has launched the Onyx Linea shower tray and this includes a long, stainless steel waste feature that allows for faster drainage for high-power showers. With a textured stone-effect finish that offers a high level of slip resistance, as well as a high-load capacity of 247kg, this shower tray is also suitable for wheelchair users or those with carers.

The AKW Onyx range has been extended to include the Onyx Exclusif shower tray and ramp, and the Onyx Linea shower tray. The Onyx Exclusif shower tray provides a showering solution with a maximum capacity of 200kg, making it a suitable choice for wheelchair users and carers. It differs from the original Onyx shower tray in that the waste has been relocated and a zinc waste option is also available. Its 26mm deep tray can either be installed above the floor or be recessed into it, offering both low and full level access options. The new Onyx Exclusif Ramp has the same weight capacity and is available in white to match the shower tray.

According to AKW, the Onyx Combo Mixer Shower brings safety and style to inclusive showering by incorporating two weight-loading grab rails into the L-shaped design. The rails extend from the cool-to-touch TMV2-approved mixer valve via a vertical riser and horizontal grab rail, both of which can support up to 150kg. As well as bringing additional safety into the showering space, the Onyx Combo is easy to operate, using two individual lever paddles to control temperature and flow.

The Onyx Shower Seat and Grab Rails have also been updated, to ensure a cohesive aesthetic for safe showering. A seat back and arms option has been added that can either be purchased with the seat, or separately. Fitted independently of the seat, they allow positioning to be tailored to the user's preference, and, thanks to the folding seat and arms, are suitable for multi-user environments.

To complete the range, AKW’s new Onyx 2 grab rails feature an ergonomic triangular rail that offers users greater grip. Increased levels of personalisation are also possible, thanks to the wall bracket covers that are available in five different colours and four different printed finishes.

Stuart Reynolds, Head of Product and Marketing at AKW, commented: “With more and more users wanting to combine style and accessibility, there is even greater demand for showering solutions that combine safety and a contemporary look and feel. We have extended our Onyx range so that installers can provide end users with highly inclusive showering solutions that embrace both safety and sophistication.”
