What is the difference between an acrylic, solid surface, and steel bath?

Choosing the right bath material can make a big difference to the look, feel and everyday maintenance of your bathroom. From lightweight and versatile acrylic to luxurious solid surface and durable steel, each material offers its own unique benefits. Explore the differences below to find the perfect fit for your space and lifestyle.

Acrylic: A popular choice for modern bathrooms, acrylic baths are lightweight, durable and comfortable to soak in. Their non-porous surface makes them easy to clean and helps resist mould and bacteria. Acrylic also retains warmth well, and minor surface scratches can often be polished out.

Steel: Steel baths are a durable and timeless option, offering excellent resistance to scratches, impacts and everyday wear. Their smooth, non-porous surface is easy to clean and helps resist staining and bacteria. Steel baths offer a classic, hard-wearing option with a sleek, contemporary finish.

Solid Surface: Solid surface baths are crafted from engineered composite materials, creating a smooth, seamless finish with a premium feel. Their non-porous surface is highly resistant to stains and bacteria, making them easy to clean and maintain. They also offer excellent durability and a luxurious, architectural look.
