FAQs
What material is the Nuie Rectangular Shower Tray made from?
It is constructed from a patented 'Pearlstone Matrix', which is a composite of acrylic capped polyurethane resin mixed with filler, including volcanic ash. This makes it strong yet lightweight.
How high is this shower tray?
The tray has a very low profile, measuring between 40mm and 45mm in height.
Is a waste trap included with the shower tray?
Typically, shower wastes are sold separately. Please check the product listing or contact customer service for details on included components. A shallow waste trap is often recommended due to the tray's height.
Can this shower tray be installed directly onto floor joists?
While the tray is lightweight, it requires a solid, level subfloor for installation. It is not designed to be installed directly onto joists without appropriate structural support and levelling.
What is the warranty period for this shower tray?
The Nuie Rectangular Shower Tray comes with a lifetime manufacturer's guarantee against faulty workmanship or materials, provided it is installed, cared for, and used according to instructions.
How do I clean the shower tray?
Clean with a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive bathroom cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive materials to protect the surface finish.
Is this tray suitable for a wetroom conversion?
Yes, its ultra-slim profile makes it ideal for creating modern wetroom designs or achieving a seamless look in any bathroom.
Troubleshooting
Tray is not level
Carefully lift the tray and re-apply adhesive or adjust supporting legs/plinth. Ensure the subfloor is properly prepared and level before installation.
Water pooling or slow drainage
Check the waste trap for blockages. Ensure the waste trap is installed correctly and the tray has a slight, consistent fall towards the waste outlet. Verify compatibility of the waste fitting with the tray's low profile.
Scratches on the surface
For minor surface scratches, a specialized acrylic polish may help. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or tools that could cause further damage. Clean spills or debris promptly.
Tray makes noise when walked on
Ensure the tray is fully supported by the subfloor and adhesive. If legs or a plinth were used, check they are secure and providing adequate support. The Pearlstone Matrix is designed to be solid, so excessive noise may indicate insufficient support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Ensure the subfloor is level and sound.
Position the shower tray and mark its location.
Apply a suitable adhesive or support system (e.g., legs or a full plinth, if purchased separately) to the underside, ensuring even contact with the floor.
Connect the waste outlet to your plumbing.
Carefully lower the tray into position, checking for levelness in all directions.
Allow adhesive to cure before tiling and sealing the edges.
Compatibility:
Waste Fittings: Compatible with standard shower wastes, but due to the low profile, a shallow shower waste trap is often recommended. Ensure the chosen waste is suitable for a 40-45mm tray.
Shower Enclosures: Suitable for use with most rectangular shower enclosures. Ensure the enclosure dimensions match the tray.
Tiling: Can be tiled around directly.
Care:
Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive bathroom cleaner.
Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive pads, or solvents, as these can damage the acrylic surface.
Wipe dry after cleaning to prevent water spots.
Periodically check the waste outlet for blockages and clean as needed.
