Bathroom materials have come a long way, moving from traditional options such as ceramics to new technological solutions that redefine this essential space. In this transformation, the search for functionality, design and sustainability has been key, giving rise to trends in bathroom materials that prioritise both aesthetics and innovation.
From ceramics to new bathroom materials
Ceramic has been the star material in bathroom design for decades. Its durability, ease of cleaning and wide availability made it the material of choice for wall cladding and equipment. However, market demands and technological advances have led to the introduction of new bathroom materials that offer more sophisticated and versatile solutions.
Among these new materials, Akron®, an exclusive creation by Acquabella, stands out. This material represents an evolution in bathroom equipment, integrating cutting-edge technology and innovative design to overcome the limitations of traditional materials.
What is Akron® and why is it revolutionising bathroom equipment?
Akron® is a composite material made from recycled polyurethane and mineral fillers. This combination not only gives it strength, but also a versatility that sets it apart from other bathroom materials. Some of its main characteristics include:
- High resistance: Akron® is a material that is highly resistant to impacts, scratches and thermal shocks, ideal for demanding environments such as bathrooms.
- Anti-slip class 3: It guarantees maximum safety by significantly reducing the risk of slipping, even on wet surfaces.
- Hygiene and durability: Its non-porous composition prevents the accumulation of dirt and bacteria, making it easy to maintain and clean.
- Customisable design: Available in a wide range of colours and textures, it can be adapted to any decorative style, from classic to contemporary.
- Sustainability: Akron® is made from recycled materials, making it an environmentally friendly option.

Innovations in bathroom equipment.
The evolution of bathroom materials not only responds to aesthetic needs, but also to technological advances that improve the user experience. Akron® represents this convergence of design and innovation by incorporating properties that favour well-being and sustainability:
- Thermal and acoustic insulation: This material reduces heat loss and minimises water-generated noise, creating a warmer and more relaxing environment.
- Smart technology compatibility: Surfaces made with Akron® can be integrated with digital control systems, allowing precise adjustments in temperature and water flow.
- Chemical resistance: Ideal for everyday use, it maintains its appearance and quality despite constant contact with cleaning products.
Technology in bathroom design: the future of comfort
Technology has transformed the way we think about bathrooms. Elements such as LED lighting, touch control systems and smart showers have gone from being luxuries to becoming an essential part of modern design. Akron® complements this trend by offering materials that not only accommodate these innovations, but also enhance them.
For example, combining Akron® with technological accessories creates spaces that prioritise comfort and user experience. From anti-slip shower trays to customised furniture, this material redefines the concept of functionality in bathroom design.
