Built-in showers are one of the main trends in bathrooms. Their integration into the floor, accessibility and safety are a perfect combination of design and practicality. Butech presents new technical solutions for the designs, while maintaining the waterproofing and drainage functions.
The shower tray with concealed drain Shower Deck n adapts to ceramic collections with reduced thickness. Thus, the system can be used with PORCELANOSA models of 8.5 mm, and XLIGHT of only 6 mm. In addition, Butech presents the new Shower Line drainage system, which is hidden from view. Drainage is achieved through an open joint between the floor and the wall.

Butech offers the Eco Linear Grating Kit for classic shower trays. This waterproofing system has a smaller width -just over 5 cm of grid- than the conventional one. It is available in four steel finishes, Chrome, Square, Line and Matt Black. At the same time, there is a reversible model with two finishes: Texture or Revestible, with the same material as the rest of the shower tray.
The installation of the Eco Linear Grating Kit reduces the visual impact of the drainage system. It is complemented with the Imperband Eco waterproof sheet for interiors, which is compatible with ceramic tile installation materials. Its sustainable composition stands out, with 70% recycled fibers.
Along the same lines, the company is expanding its range of Colorstuk Rapid gaskets for shower trays and wet areas. These new colors resist contact with water (Ash, Maple, Beech, Elm, Oak, Iroko and Doussie).

Industrialization is presented as the main way to build in the future. For this reason, Butech, through its Porcelanosa Offsite range, is committed to developing new solutions. For this International Show, the firm presents a new concept of facades with modules of up to 12 m2.
This new module includes the standard elements of the envelope and incorporates all the metalwork such as windows, parapets and balconies. In addition, it allows different exterior finishes such as fachada ventilada with PORCELANOSA ceramics or SATE (Exterior Thermal Insulation System).
This breakthrough in industrialized facades is being installed in the expansion of the Hospital Clínico Universitario de Valencia. The 8,000 m2 modular façade has been designed by the AIC EQUIP and FJ Jiménez Arquitectura studios. For this project, 836 modules will be used, clad with XLIGHT (Porcelanosa) large-format technical porcelain tile.

Interior design and contemporary architecture pose new challenges every day that Porcelanosa Grupo faces with new materials and finishes. In this new paradigm, the technical solutions developed by Butech and Porcelanosa Offsite acquire special relevance.
