Merlyn have \u201craised the bar\u201d with their installer-friendly IONIC portfolio. The collection has been developed to offer plumbers and installers uncomplicated products which meet increasing consumer demand for high quality with a modest price point. All the products in the IONIC range are stylish, easy fit and offer excellent value for money. There is a dedicated website, brochure and customer service team to support the collection. www.ionicshowering.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The range of IONIC shower walls has been enhanced with the new walk in shower wall which incorporates a very practical Stabilising Bar.<\/p>\n

The bar is perfect for wetroom installations which would previously have been deemed impractical (due to windows etc). The 3m high bar also adds an attractive design feature, adding definition to the minimalist look. The bar can be cut to fit and even retrofitted if necessary.<\/p>\n

The IONIC collection features many wetroom configurations giving the choice to mix and match many combinations of shapes and sizes to any space required. As well as the Stabilizing Bar option there are innovative Swivel Panels available. All the models feature luxurious 8mm glass<\/p>\n

The Ionic wetroom collection also has a 20 year guarantee and Mershield Stayclear glass protection.<\/p>\n
