SANPLAST shower enclosures - 30 years of pure showering pleasure

SANPLAST shower enclosures - 30 years of pure showering pleasure

The history of SANPLAST began 38 years ago - in 1983. It was then that two brothers, Karol and Wiesław Podraza, started their activities in their hometown of Wymysłowice. In the beginning, they were involved in the production of car wheel arches and bumpers, later - polyester sinks. The breakthrough year turned out to be 1991, when the first shower enclosures were produced and introduced to the domestic market, straight from the SANPLAST factories.

SANPLAST shower enclosures - pioneering products on the Polish market

In 2021, we celebrate the thirtieth anniversary of the first SANPLAST shower enclosure. At this time and place, the proper history of us as a Polish producer begins. The huge success associated with the production of shower enclosures led to further projects, generating more and more bold business goals. In 1997, we started the production of acrylic bathtubs, which were later equipped with whirlpools systems. Even then, the production line was located in a newly built hall. Today, SANPLAST is a leading manufacturer of shower enclosures, shower trays and bathtubs in Poland, as well as an international leader in the bathing salon equipment sector.

Working on success is not a one-time job - it is a continuous path to excellence

By implementing our ideas, we have gained a large group of clients and trusted partners. Modern technology, continuous development and the creation of bold visions resulted in the recognition of the brand. Obtaining the title of a leader is a continuous process, constant work of designers, specialists, industry experts and a team of production workers.

SANPLAST is synonymous with continuous development. When shower enclosures were introduced 30 years ago, they were significantly different from what we know today. It proves following the best solutions and creating trends.

The first shower enclosures were filled with polystyrene. The shape was limited to a choice of square and rectangular. Over time, products were equipped with 4 mm tempered glass, increasing the safety of use, which at that time was not as obvious as today, while in SANPLAST it was always a priority. Currently, the glass from which shower enclosures are made is a 5, 6, 8 mm thick tempered glass with the Glass Protect surface modification.

Shower enclosures have evolved over the years. 30 years ago, a shower enclosure was supposed to be practical in the first place. The colors of the available shower enclosure elements also changed - a dozen or so years ago, shower enclosures with profiles in shades of green, yellow, red and even pink and navy blue were popular. Today, such colors are no longer welcome in the bathroom. Customers focus on chrome or black details, the more universal solutions the better. Over time, the variety of products increased, attention began to be paid to design and aesthetics, as well as more and more functionality of the shower area. Along with the development of products, the philosophy of bathing salons has also evolved - starting the way with typical practical solutions - striving to fuse practicality, functionality, appearance and aesthetics. Nowadays, the shower enclosure has become the central part of the bathroom, giving it greater utility value.

By choosing the SANPLAST brand, you choose the quality that comes from many years of experience. You become a part of history and a partner in creating the future - another 30 years of pure showering pleasure.
