My Parents both in the their 80s installed a SENSTEC shower tray, this gave all the family peace of mind that they would be safe and secure. The bonus is they both love it and feel very safe and enjoy the feeling under foot and appreciate how easy it is to clean.

This is a very elegant looking tray. The dimples really do give unbelievable traction and they feel amazing on the soles of your feet. You may try to make yourself slip, but you won’t!

We put in the shower tray to make sure our toddlers wouldn’t slip. It’s really safe and has amazing grip under foot. It’s also very, very comfortable and makes a shower even more enjoyable!

Follow-up from Senstec gives me confidence that they're there for afterservice too. Absolutely recommended. Thank you Senstec! Suebarry Biggs2024-11-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Both our plumber and local sanitary ware supplier recommended we specify and install a Senstec shower tray, for not only its quality manufacture but also for its unique anti-slip surface. Now it's installed and in use, we are absolutely delighted with the SENSTEC shower tray. It's a brilliant product and we have to say it feels more than comfortable to stand on and you feel secure when wet. Classic Marble (Showers) Ltd were so helpful and gave us easy to maintain cleaning instructions with a follow up contact to make sure we were happy with their product. . We have no hesitation in recommending a 5 star review to the SENSTEC Anti-slip Shower Trays. It certainly makes the use of those anti-slip shower mats a thing of the past. Peter Stride2024-11-19Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Even though it may be slightly more expensive than a standard shower tray, we are really pleased we had a SENSTEC shower tray installed. We don’t even think about slipping over as it feels so safe underfoot. SENSTEC even sent us a small sample which helped with our final decision. Dawn Egley2024-11-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I bought a senstec shower tray earlier this year. The non slip and quality of the product is exceptional. I am so pleased with it that I have just installed another senstec tray in my other bathroom. The non slip is excellent for my family and visits from my elderly parents. I have complete piece of mind using it.I also needed some technical help on both installations and contacted the company direct. Danielle was very helpful getting answers and returning calls etc. The customer service I received on both occasions was outstanding. I would not hesitate to recommend them or their products. I am very happy with my shower trays. Ian Pinker2024-11-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We debated long and hard about buying a Senstec shower tray - it seemed very expensive. However I have to say it was by far the best item that we bought for our new bathroom. Genuinely non-slip - a real pleasure to use every morning. The post sales support is also excellent. If in doubt, go for it! Julian Gilbert2024-11-05Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Really good product & customer service. Would definitely recommend. Maureen Trousdale2024-10-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Have had a SENSTEC Anti Slip shower tray for 2 years & it is brilliant. Very safe with no fear of slipping. Looks like new & is so easy to clean. Claire Walters2024-10-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I bought a SENSTEC shower tray a couple of months back for my elderly father, who has mobility issues. He was struggling to get in and out of his old shower because of the slippery surface. I searched high and low for a solution and whilst this seems like a small thing, washing was such a huge issue for my dad and it got him down. We found SENSTEC and decided to order the tray online, it arrived super quick and was installed by our installer. We knew we'd made the right choice when our installer said that it was the best tray he'd ever installed! But the proof is in the pudding (as they say), and I can honestly say that it's transformed my dad's life!!! I know that sounds ridiculous, but the little things we take for granted (showers being one of them) really make a difference when it becomes difficult. The SENSTEC tray is a solid tray with grip like no other!! But, you'd think that you'd sacrifice comfort with grip, but that's not the case with SENSTEC. It's a great tray that would work in any bathroom, so much so, we've ordered one too (and I've recommended to friends and family like a thousand times)!!! If you're considering a new tray or bathroom refit, DO NOT BUY ANYTHING ELSE!!!! Absolute quality from top to bottom. Huge thanks from me and my dad. You're amazing ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Michael Tarry2024-10-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Really pleased with our "SENSTEC Anti-Slip" shower tray, it's still early days yet so longevity will not be mentioned. Everything else is positive, I don't usually say that but I have had excellent service for a first class product. The quality and appearance just feel so right, you know, it looks good and feels good. I was a little concerned at the first sight of the 'pimples' but they're confidence giving to walk on and easy enough to squeegee - if you're into that sort of thing. Can only recommend. Mike

“We left the meeting wondering just what we had actually agreed to do! The bar had been set high but we kept in mind that Classic Marble (Showers) Ltd has been at the forefront of design and innovation since 1983 and that we had won numerous product innovation awards for bathroom waterproofing products within our Classi® range.”
The first challenge that we came across was the realisation that whilst EN 14527 draws attention to the potential for slipping to increase when the surface of shower trays are wet, it does not detail particular tests or technical parameters for shower trays in relation to slip resistance.As soon as we discovered this to be the case, our managing director joined the UK Slip Resistance Group, UKSRG, in order to raise awareness of this fact and to keep himself and the Classic Marble team fully up to date with changing legislation.
As a result, we found ourselves fulfilling an educational role, as well as developing a new product. Our next challenge was the actual design, so we turned to the aerospace tooling industry for help. This indicates the high level of precision engineering and expertise that the SENSTEC design required.
Our initial research led us to two methods of measuring slip resistance – the Pendulum Test and the Ramp Test, BS 7976-2:2002 and DIN 51097 respectively. We decided to test our product using both standards.
From the outset, we agreed that we should adopt an engineered solution and make the anti-slip design an integral part of the mould.
This would ensure that anti-slip properties would be built into all of our shower trays. In addition, we decided that the anti-slip profile should be made from the same material as the rest of the shower tray surface. This would mean that there would be no limitations of use.
More than three years of continuous research and development ensued and it soon became clear why no-one had yet successfully completed such a project. Prototype tool, tray manufacture, test, feedback results… Prototype tool, tray manufacture, test, feedback… the trials went on and on.
Then finally we cracked it after Prototype tool 42!
Or had we? Only rigorous testing would provide the answer.
We believe so! Here’s why:
• UKAS Laboratory tested to BS 7976-2:2002, showing best category of slip resistance possible, considering wet and soapy conditions.
• UKAS Laboratory tested to DIN 51097, showing best category of slip resistance possible, considering wet and soapy conditions.
• The anti-slip properties are an integral part of the tray manufacture, made from the same materials as the rest of the tray surface, therefore no limitations on use.
• Ulster University Study – 100% of subjects confident that they would not slip in a SENSTEC Anti-Slip Shower Tray, as well as 88% reporting a high degree of comfort when standing and moving in the SENSTEC Anti-Slip Shower Tray.
• Easily cleaned – no change required to our cleaning instructions, first introduced in 1983 for our normal shower trays.
• UK Patent No.: GB2551138 & US Patent No.: US 10,765,268
