"The Monochrome Masterclass" — If you are choosing the Matt Black Ravine, don't let the design stop at the bath.

Expert Tip: To truly make this bath "pop," install it against a light-coloured or marble-effect tile (like your Alure White tiles). Pro Tip: Match the exterior with Matt Black waste and overflow covers (IMEX MPN: HCCB106MB). Most people forget this and use standard chrome, which breaks the sleek look. Using the matching black waste makes the bath look like one solid, custom-designed piece.

Freestanding luxury without the space compromise. The IMEX Ravine is expertly designed to sit flush against your bathroom wall, giving you the stunning silhouette of a freestanding tub while making cleaning easier and saving vital floor space. This "Back-to-Wall" hybrid is the perfect solution for modern British bathrooms where you want a designer focal point without sacrificing practicality.

Hand-finished in the UK, the Ravine is constructed from high-grade IMEX Cast acrylic, which is fully reinforced for maximum strength and exceptional heat retention. Whether you choose the compact 1500mm for a smaller en-suite or the full-size 1700mm for a master suite, the Ravine offers deep, luxurious soaking and a timeless aesthetic that suits both contemporary and traditional settings.

"The Shelf Advantage" — The genius of the back-to-wall design isn't just space; it's the built-in ledge. Unlike a traditional freestanding bath where you have nowhere to put your shampoo or a glass of wine, the Ravine allows you to use the rear ledge or even drill it for deck-mounted taps. Expert Tip: If you want a truly high-end look, pair the 1500mm version with a tall floor-standing bath shower mixer in Brushed Brass. It creates a boutique hotel vibe that makes a small bathroom feel like a luxury spa.

The ultimate "Imperial-to-Metric" retrofit solution. The IMEX Croma 1675mm bath is specifically engineered to replace old 5'6" imperial-sized baths without the need for extensive tiling or wall adjustments. While standard modern baths are 1700mm, this unique 1675mm length is a lifesaver for renovations in older UK properties where every millimeter counts.

Constructed using Premiercast Technology, this bath isn't just acrylic—it's a multi-layered masterpiece. Each bath is hand-formed from 5mm high-grade acrylic, reinforced with a full timber frame, and then strengthened with seven layers of fiberglass core matting. The result is a bath that has the heat-retaining properties of acrylic but the incredible rigidity and strength of cast iron.

Key Features

• Premiercast Reinforcement: 7 layers of hand-applied fiberglass and resin create a "Superstrength" bonded core that eliminates flexing.

• Superior Heat Retention: The multi-layer construction acts as an insulator, keeping your bath water warmer for significantly longer.

• Perfect Retrofit Size: At 1675mm, it is the exact equivalent of the old 5'6" imperial bath, making it the premier choice for renovations.

• Reinforced Timber Frame: A full timber frame supports both the base and the underside of the rim for maximum stability.

• Generous 180L Capacity: Designed with a deep internal profile for a more immersive soaking experience.

• Lucite Acrylic Surface: High-gloss white finish that is warm to the touch and incredibly easy to clean.

Technical Specs

• Dimensions: 1675mm (L) x 700mm (W) x 545mm (H)

• Capacity: 180 Litres

• Material: 5mm Acrylic + 7-Layer Premiercast Reinforcement

• Configuration: Single Ended (Waste at one end)

• Guarantee: 25-Year Manufacturer's Guarantee

Norbreck Expert/Design Tip

If you are renovating a bathroom in a house built before 1970, measure your existing bath carefully. If it's roughly 167cm, a standard 1700mm bath will not fit without cutting into your walls. This 1675mm Croma model is our "secret weapon" for these installs. Pair it with a Croma Premiercast front panel to ensure the reinforcement extends to the visual finish, giving the whole setup a solid, "built-in" feel that doesn't creak when you step into it.

Modern durability meets the classic Imperial fit. The IMEX Platto 1675mm Single Ended Bath is a high-performance solution for UK bathroom renovations. Specifically designed at 1675mm (5'6"), it is the exact size required to replace old imperial baths without the need to alter existing wall structures or disturb original tiling layouts.

Built using the IMEX Cast reinforcement process, this bath starts with a premium 5mm acrylic sheet, which is then strengthened with a full timber-supported base and rim. A high-density fiberglass spray layer encapsulates the frame, creating a rigid, durable, and highly stable bathing area. Finished with a specialized resin coating, the Platto offers the reliability of a traditional bath with the sleek, easy-clean benefits of modern acrylic.

Key Features

• IMEX Cast Reinforcement: A hybrid construction of hand-finished acrylic and automated fiberglass spraying for a consistent, high-strength build.

• Problem-Solver 1675mm Length: The perfect "retrofit" size for older properties, ensuring a flush fit between walls where a 1700mm bath is too large.

• Full Timber Support: Reinforced at the base and the underside of the rim to prevent bowing or creaking during use.

• Heat Preservation: The reinforced fiberglass layer helps maintain water temperature for longer than standard, unreinforced acrylic baths.

• High-Gloss White Finish: Made from high-quality acrylic that is resistant to staining and easy to buff back to a shine.

• Single Ended Design: Features a comfortable sloped back for lumbar support, with the waste and taps located at the opposite foot end.

Technical Specs

• Dimensions: 1675mm (L) x 700mm (W) x 545mm (H)

• Internal Depth: 400mm (Approx)

• Material: 5mm High-Grade Acrylic + IMEX Cast Fiberglass Reinforcement

• Water Capacity: 180 Litres

• Guarantee: 25-Year Manufacturer’s Guarantee

The Platto 1675mm is our "go-to" bath for landlords and professional renovators. Because it is reinforced with the IMEX Cast process, it feels significantly more solid than a standard DIY-store bath. If you are fitting a bath screen over this unit, the reinforced timber rim is essential; it provides a much more secure anchor point for the screen's bracket, preventing leaks caused by the bath rim flexing over time.
