Product Description:

The Profilitec Showertec Advanced Waterproof Shower Kit is a professional grade indoor shower system engineered to create a fully integrated waterproof shower enclosure for residential and commercial bathroom installations. Designed to simplify modern shower construction while delivering dependable long term waterproof performance, this complete tile ready shower system includes a factory pre sloped shower tray, waterproof shower wall boards, integrated drain assembly, prefabricated load-bearing shower curb that is easy to cut to size, sealing accessories, waterproofing accessories, and drain cover required for a reliable and efficient installation process.

The pre sloped waterproof shower base is manufactured from high density EPS foam engineered to provide structural stability, proper water flow and drainage, and long lasting durability beneath tiled shower surfaces. The integrated center drain system helps direct water efficiently toward the drain outlet, reducing standing water and minimizing the risk of leaks commonly associated with traditional mortar bed shower systems. The included waterproof drain assembly, flange, waterproof ring, grid support, and construction plug work together to create a secure drainage connection that enhances moisture protection throughout the entire shower installation.

Unlike traditional shower assemblies that require time consuming waterproofing methods and multiple installation layers, this premium complete shower kit is designed for faster and more efficient installation. Lightweight prefabricated waterproof shower components reduce handling difficulty, minimize labor requirements, and simplify the installation process for contractors, remodelers, builders, and experienced DIY installers. The ready to tile design allows immediate tile application using standard thin-set mortar adhesives, helping create a secure bond and reduce project time while maintaining professional quality waterproofing performance.

The included waterproof shower wall boards are constructed using a rigid multilayer polypropylene core with non woven fleece webbing laminated on both sides to ensure superior mortar adhesion and reliable tile support. Fully waterproof, vapor tight, thermally insulating, and dimensionally stable, these lightweight durable building panels provide a dependable tile substrate for wet area applications including showers, steam showers, wet rooms, walk in showers, spa rooms, and bathroom renovations. Their internal cell structure enhances compressive strength while allowing easy cutting and customization for shower benches, niches, and specialized layouts using standard utility knives or cutting tools.

Designed for compatibility with wood studs, metal framing, concrete, masonry, brick substrates, and plywood, the waterproof wall panels support both vertical and horizontal installation methods using standard self tapping drywall screws without requiring washers. The printed grid pattern on the board surface allows accurate measurements and cleaner cuts during installation, improving efficiency and layout precision on the jobsite.

This waterproof tileable shower system provides a durable, load-bearing foundation capable of supporting various floor coverings, such as ceramic tile, porcelain tile, mosaic tile, marble tile, granite tile, natural stone tile, glass tile, cement tile, travertine tile, slate tile, limestone tile, sandstone tile, onyx tile, quartzite tile, and large-format tile finishes. Its sturdy construction makes it ideal for high traffic residential and commercial environments including master bathrooms, guest bathrooms, apartment buildings, condominiums, hotels, fitness centers, wellness facilities, spas, saunas, and luxury shower renovations where long term waterproof reliability is essential.

Profilitec boards complies with ANSI and TCNA standards for vapor-resistant substrate and bonded waterproof membrane systems and passes ASTM E84 and NFPA 286 for flame and smoke resistance, with a low water vapor permeance of 0.0009 perms and thermal R-value around 0.984. It's also environmentally friendly and fully recyclable, free of fiberglass, paper, adhesives, making it an excellent choice for green building projects and sustainable construction.

The STBO board is fully compatible with the Advanced Profilitec Showertec system, including FOILTEC waterproofing strips, waterproofing band, FIXXTEC sealant, preformed inside and outside corners, ABS or PVC drains, curbs, and a trimmable shower tray that allows installers to customize the pan to the desired shower base size without compromising fit or performance. It is a trusted alternative to traditional cement backer boards, foam backer boards, and drywall, offering unmatched structural reliability and long-term waterproofing integrity while weighing at just 5.8 lb (2.5 kg) per panel.

Engineered for wet environments and high humidity applications, the Profilitec Showertec Advanced Waterproof Shower Kit is ideal for steam showers, curbless shower floors, walk in showers, open concept bathrooms, and barrier free shower installations. The combination of waterproof shower boards, integrated drainage technology, and pre sloped shower tray components creates a continuous moisture resistant barrier that helps protect surrounding walls and flooring from water intrusion, and costly structural damage over time.
