Need a New Shower? Why Designers Love Onyx Showers
What Is an Onyx Shower Insert?
An Onyx shower insert is a customizable shower system made with coordinating Onyx components. It typically includes a shower base, wall panels, and trim pieces. Instead of building the shower surface with individual tiles and grout, large Onyx panels are installed. As a result, they create a smooth, finished surround.
Unlike a basic one-piece fiberglass shower insert, an Onyx shower can be custom-fitted to the space. Therefore, this gives homeowners a more polished, upscale look. It also offers the convenience of a low-maintenance shower system.
That combination of beauty and practicality is why The Onyx Collection, proudly made in Kansas, USA, is such a great option for bathroom designers and homeowners.
A Clean, Customized Look
Onyx offers shower bases, wall panels, trim, lavatories, backsplashes, and coordinating components. These elements help create a cohesive, custom look.
The large wall panels provide a clean, continuous appearance with fewer grout lines than traditional tile, making them a beautiful choice for both classic and contemporary bathrooms.
Easy to Maintain
One of the biggest benefits of an Onyx shower is how simple it is to care for. A basic weekly cleaning is often enough to keep surfaces looking new.
Most household cleaners can be used as long as they are non-abrasive and contain no grit. A surface protectant can also help reduce water spots and mineral deposits.
For homeowners who want a beautiful shower without spending their time scrubbing grout, that’s a major advantage.
Flexible for Installation
Onyx materials can be cut, notched, and trimmed with standard woodworking tools, allowing installers to make adjustments for a custom fit.
The wall panels are also compatible with several common backing materials, including properly prepared sheetrock, cement board, Hardie-type board, and Schluter/Kerdi Board.
A Thoughtfully Engineered Material
Onyx products are made primarily from alumina trihydrate combined with a specially developed polyester resin. The company has refined its formula over more than 30 years. Furthermore, it states that its resin does not contain urea formaldehyde.
Proudly Made in Kansas
Another reason we appreciate The Onyx Collection is its American-made story. Their products are proudly manufactured in Kansas, USA, giving designers and homeowners the opportunity to choose a domestically made product backed by decades of experience.
Beauty That Works in the Real World
Great design is about more than first impressions. It’s about choosing materials that continue to look beautiful and function well for years to come.
With its customizable style, easy maintenance, installation flexibility, and American manufacturing, The Onyx Collection is a strong choice for creating a bathroom that is both beautiful and livable.
