How to choose a shower curtain for a shower cubicle or bath?

Well-fitted shower curtains can transform a bathroom and add a cosy feel to the space. The wide range of patterns and colours of textile shower curtains available from the REA shop lets you match a specific curtain to the style of the room. Do you prefer muted shades? Check out classic shower curtains in white or light blue. For bathrooms with character, a shower curtain for a bath with bold animal prints or colourful prints will be a great fit.

One of the key functions of shower curtains is separating the wet zone from the dry zone in the bathroom. They also provide privacy, and keeping them clean is exceptionally easy. Just leave the fabric to dry after cleaning.

Types and benefits of shower curtains

Depending on whether you have a bath or a shower, you can choose:

• a shower curtain for a bath
• a shower drape

The first option deserves particular attention. If you have a bath, you don’t have to give up the shower function. Simply use a textile shower curtain and separate the bathing area from the rest of the room. This way you’ll avoid splashing the floor or the mirror. It’s an interesting solution for people who, due to limited bathroom space, had to choose a bath at the expense of a shower. A shower curtain will let you enjoy quick, energising showers without having to fill the bath each time.

A shower drape is also an alternative to classic shower enclosures. It’s much cheaper than a full enclosure and takes up less space. A shower curtain will let you make use of even a small or non-standard recess in the bathroom for a shower. Along with a floor drain, you can create a shower that blends unobtrusively into the room.

A shower curtain is also an essential element of public showers and zones at swimming pools, in spas or leisure centres. They’re much cheaper than full enclosures, take up less space, and neatly separate the shower from the rest of the room.
