01KITCHEN & BATHROOM DIY
A tiled recess for the wet room
This Della Francesca niche offers a precise architectural detail for bathrooms and wet rooms, creating a clean recess for storage or display without complex masonry work.
The unit provides a stable, waterproof substrate that accepts tile or render, suiting both interior showers and exterior features where moisture resistance is essential.
02MATERIALS
Polystyrene core with sealed finish
Constructed from high-density polystyrene, the niche is coated in a liquid-applied sealant to create a robust, waterproof shell. This composition ensures the material remains stable and resistant to degradation, even when exposed to frequent water contact in showers or wet rooms.
04PRACTICALITY
Lightweight and easy to cut
Weighing just 2.7 kg, the unit is simple to carry and manoeuvre into position. Should adjustments be required, the material can be trimmed using a fine saw or a sharp Stanley knife, offering flexibility for custom fits around existing fixtures or irregular wall spaces.
05PERFORMANCE
High compressive strength for durability
With a compressive strength of 300 kPa, the bond between the reinforcing fibreglass mesh and cement mortar withstands significant pressure. This structural integrity makes the niche suitable for demanding environments, including external walls, balconies, and garden water features.
