The waterproof wall panel concept was developed in Scandinavia and Mermaid is now renowned as the UK's market leader in this sector. Its panels have been tested by the Norwegian Building Research Institute and awarded NBI Technical Approval No 2294 for use in wet areas. In addition to being attractive and easy to maintain, they also offer many other advantages to the installer and consumers alike.

Mermaid panels are made of 9mm water-resistant WBP plywood. This is bonded with a decorative high pressure laminate which results in a 100% waterproof surface. There is also a balancer laminate to the reverse.

Mermaid can be used for two- or three-sided shower enclosures and are available in two different sizes to suit most shower trays.

Hi-ShowerWall - 2400mmx 900mm
For shower installations where the wall is less than or equal to 900mm

Wide ShowerWall - 2400mm x 1200mm
For shower installations where the wall is less than or equal to 1200mm

If you are installing a three-sided shower enclosure, you will require a Shower Kit and an End Kit. 

Whatever size you select, the only join line will be in the corner. A colour-coordinated Click-Seal corner profile will be supplied with your kit and will ensure a neat, watertight finish. For smaller enclosures, Mermaid panels can be cut to size with normal woodworking tools.

The Mermaid Transeal bottom system is supplied as standard with Wall Kits. This will accommodate movement between the bath or shower tray and the wall to ensure a leakproof finish. This patented profile and special formulation sealant allows shower trays to drop by up to 10mm and still remain watertight.

Please check before ordering that the size and shape of your shower tray is compatible with the Transeal bottom seal profile.

Shower Kits include:

• Two 900mm-wide panels, one 900mm-wide and one 1200mm-wide panel or two 1200mm-wide panels
