Coram UK: Aesthetics and accessibility, a family of award-winning bathroom brands

Coram UK manufactures wetrooms, shower enclosures, bath screens and accessories with the highest standards in aesthetics, functionality, and ease of use.

Incorporating Impey wetrooms, Sealskin UK, Geesa bathroom accessories, Coram Showers and Tiger; innovation is at the heart of Coram UK.

Impey is Coram UK’s flagship wetroom brand. As the UK’s market-leading wetroom manufacturer, Impey is renowned for pioneering wetroom technology and waterproofing systems. Boasting an impressive portfolio, Impey’s award-winning wetroom solutions are recognised for easy installation, high-quality and unique features.

With over 25 years of UK manufacturing experience, the Impey brand is often credited with inspiring the growth of the UK wetroom market. Impey’s pioneering wetroom technology created the first wetroom floor former with built-in gradient which is used in the healthcare market as a level-access floor and transitioned into the retail market as the go-to floor former for countless luxury wetrooms.

Thousands of installers, bathroom designers and specifiers have been able to utilise Impey’s ‘We Are Wetrooms’ training programme to learn about wetroom installation best-practice. In addition, the Impey team works across the property development and construction sectors on projects from prestige developments and large new-build estates to local authority housing and healthcare provision.

The Impey brand passionately champions the requirement for level-access showering across all housing sectors and has long-term links with the OT community as well as providers of specialist accessibility solutions. The team is also proud to be involved in the BMA’s special interest group, focusing on accessibility in bathroom design, and offering an insight into inclusive design and level access options for bathroom design across homes and healthcare settings.

The continued popularity of bathroom renovations and a renewed focus on ‘improving not moving’ means that the spotlight is firmly on level-access showering. Coram UK’s managing director Steve Huntly explains: “True accessible design should cater to individual preferences in harmony with family inclusiveness, embracing both physical and mental well-being.”

The Impey portfolio of accessible showering products enables the creation of elegant shower spaces, providing both form and function. The full selection of products incorporates high performance wetroom floor formers, shower trays with graded slip resistance, half height shower doors, multi-function grab rails, glass screens that provide space and dignity as well as shower seats with colour and shape variation.

In early 2022, Coram UK expanded its offering with the introduction of the Sealskin brand and its premium range of Sealskin duka glass shower enclosures, to the UK market. Positioned at the top end of Coram’s portfolio, it spans three ranges; acqua 5000, pura 5000 and libero 5000. Encompassing sliding, hinged and walk-in models in a choice of profile finishes, glass options and treatments, Sealskin duka products allow bathroom designers to create bespoke shower environments for their clients. The three ranges also feature tailor-made designs with fully integrated, soft open and close mechanisms, plus UV bonding for rollers, handles and hinges for a seamless finish.

To complement the company’s wetroom and enclosure offering is Geesa, a brand which has been designing, developing, manufacturing and supplying bathroom accessories with passion and dedication for over 135 years. Based in the Netherlands, Geesa is an award-winning specialist in high-quality, modern bathroom accessories combining well-considered design with an eye for detail.

Ultimately, Coram UK has a strong trio of high-end brands to offer the industry for designers and installers alike. The Sealskin duka portfolio can be paired with Impey’s wetroom solutions and Geesa’s contemporary accessories to create luxury, level access showering spaces ideal for residential or commercial projects.
