FREESTANDING BATHTUB STYLES

Our collection includes modern and classic tub styles, so think about the tub's purpose. Will the tub be used daily or weekly? Does the bathroom already have an established shower, or will it be incorporated with the tub? 

Choose the tub that includes every feature you are looking for by considering the following:

● Independence: A freestanding bathtub is not connected to the shower area or other bathroom elements. It is placed independently in the center or corner of the bathroom to form a unique bathroom focus.

● Various shapes: Provides various shapes and shapes to choose from, including classic oval, rectangular, round, etc., to meet the aesthetic needs of different users.

● Free placement: Since the freestanding bathtub does not need to rely on walls or other structural supports, it can be placed anywhere in the bathroom, providing high flexibility.

● Depth Design: Usually has a relatively deep design, allowing users to better enjoy the comfort of a soaking bath.

FREESTANDING BATHTUB MATERIALS

● Cast Iron: Cast iron bathtubs are generally very strong and durable. They have a smooth surface and good insulation properties, but are relatively heavy. Cast iron bathtubs can be surface-coated for added corrosion protection and the ability to maintain water temperature for relatively long periods of time.

● Steel: Steel bathtubs are lightweight, strong, and relatively inexpensive. However, they generally have poorer thermal insulation properties compared to cast iron. The surface is usually enamel coated, which helps protect against corrosion and makes it easy to clean.

● Acrylic: Acrylic is a lightweight plastic used to make lightweight bathtubs. Acrylic bathtubs come in a variety of looks and are relatively easy to maintain. They also have better thermal insulation properties. Acrylic bathtubs are usually formed by bending, blow molding, or injection molding.

● Composite materials: Composite material bathtubs are usually made from a combination of materials, such as acrylic, steel, fiberglass, etc. This design can combine the advantages of various materials to provide a strong, lightweight and beautiful-looking bathtub.

● Quartz/Marble: These tubs are usually made from quartz or marble particles mixed with resin. They have a unique appearance, like natural stone, while being relatively lightweight. These tubs often require special cleaning and maintenance.

Purchasing a bathtub is an important investment in upgrading your bathroom space, and by considering the above factors, you can choose the ideal bathtub that meets your personal needs while providing comfort.
