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!

ExcellentBased on 27 reviewsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Mrs C Davies2024-09-02The anti slip shower tray from Senstec was literally a step into the unknown. It is a product only available via showrooms however their website and the links to the university research undertaken by this manufacturer showed that a lot of top quality designers and engineers were behind this excellent product. It is more expensive than other shower trays but worth every penny. Its solidity and anti slip mouldings are outstanding. Other trays are coated with a non slip surface which peels after time. This tray has permanent clean mouldings that will also make it much easier to clean. With a 15 year guarantee, this product will prove to literally be a safe investment and will reassure me that I have done all that I can to make my new bathroom as safe and beautiful as it can be.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Evette Thompson2024-08-07The senstec anti -slip shower tray feels good underfoot not uncomfortable and you will not slip on it !

The anti-slip feature is ideal as my wife and I are elderly and it gives us greater confidence. Our installer was very complimentary about the quality of manufacture. I understand that CM Group is a small family business. It is wonderful that such a business can compete with larger continental companies. I have no hesitation in recommending and awarding 5 stars to the SENSTEC Anti-slip Shower Trays, well done and keep up the good work.

“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
