Bathtubs: a real source of relaxation

At the end of the day, after a long day's work, the best way to restore our vitality and to relax is undoubtedly a long hot bath. When you are immersed in water, in which you have poured scented crystals or an abundance of bubble bath, you easily forget the problems of everyday life and benefit from relaxation. A bathtub is therefore an essential bathroom fixture, necessary for personal care and well-being: it must be comfortable, functional, aesthetically agreeable and made of excellent quality. All these requirements can be fulfilled with extreme simplicity thanks to the wide range of bathtubs in the catalogue which are offered by Kerasan.

Classic and modern style bathtubs

This specific bathroom fixture must first be chosen based on the overall design of the room in which it should be placed. That’s why it is essential to draw a distinction between classic and modern style bathtubs. The latter are characterized by a clean and minimalist outline and are usually white, a good chromatic choice particularly suitable for contemporary style environments. Generally, a modern bathtub is free from the stylistic framework that differently distinguish vintage style sanitary ware; notwithstanding, it can be placed in different areas of the room. Cleaning will be very easy thanks to the smooth and polished surface of these bathtubs. The materials used in the production are innovative and very resistant to moisture and chemicals. On the contrary, a classic bathtub has smoother shape and meets more traditional standards of beauty, consistently in harmony with the architecture of past times. Usually, these products are more tasteful and visually impressive: they are an authentic symbol of elegant and original style especially for their chrome feet featured as supports which are so well-made that they look like a work of art. Similar stand-alone bathtubs should be placed in large and bright rooms, so that they perfectly fit in the surrounding environment without interfering with the beauty of the other bathroom accessories.

How to choose a bathtub?

Kerasan offers a wide range of bathtubs which are different in size, material, colour and shape. They range from elliptic to square bathtubs, including the most versatile, original and modern ones. There are small and large bathtubs that can be equipped with an efficient whirlpool system: they can be recessed, back to wall or placed in the middle of the room: in this case they are called free-standing bathtubs.

The variety of materials used

The Kerasan bathtubs are manufactured using a wide range of raw materials, among which some are already tested and trusted, while others are the result of in-depth studies on the newest discoveries. Speaking of the most common substances, a prominent role is played by ceramic, enamelled steel and acrylic: these are materials that ensure beauty and considerable resistance at the same time. We can state the same for raw materials that only few people instinctively link to bathtubs, such as cast iron and natural stone which is perfect for country style environments. On the other hand, many designers nowadays prefer more advanced solutions that ensure high performances and extraordinary resistance, such as fibreglass and marble resin. Also noteworthy is Living Tec, a non-toxic and antibacterial material, and Quaryl, characterized by a shininess that remains unchanged over time and consequently by an exceptional robustness. These new and eco-friendly materials, which are patented and certified, allow the production of long-lasting, safe, elegant and functional bathtubs.
