INNOVATION

SAFETY 

QUALITY 

CONVENIENCE

KUDOS was first to market with the innovative and unique sliding panel release mechanism that allows the inner glass panel, from the Original range, to swing inwards to allow for easy cleaning.

Great attention to detail is taken in the design of all our products and safety is paramount, as shown in the unique curved bottom edge we incorporate in the KUDOS bathscreen.

Not satisfied with what is easily available, KUDOS often develop items specifically to improve quality, such as the superbly engineered, stainless steel roller bearings that ensure a perfectly smooth glide action on all KUDOS sliding doors.

Some design features are included to simply make your showering experience as enjoyable as possible. The door handle on the curved pivot doors doubles as a towel rail to keep your towels conveniently at hand.

SUPPORT

KUDOS believe that it is often the smallest detail that will make a huge difference. Take the hinge on our Infinite Hinge Door for instance. Not satisfied with a standard hinged mechanism, we incorporate a KevlarTM impregnated sleeve to prevent metal running against metal, greatly prolonging the life of the mechanism.

A great performing shower is wholly dependant upon being installed on a great performing shower tray. That is why KUDOS Showers manufactures its own range of Acrylic Capped ABS Stone filled trays to the most exacting standards, and is regarded as the innovator of these high quality, durable shower trays.

At KUDOS we constantly develop new and unique solutions that improve the function of all our products. One example is the unique 3-way system in the wall posts of the Infinite range that allows adjustment of the enclosure for out-of-true walls and floors. A system further enhanced over any other by the fact that adjustment can be made after the glass panels have been installed.

Every KUDOS product is handbuilt to exacting standards with precision and care, and is supported by our highly trained National team of technical sales engineers who are equipped to assist with on-site technical advice, installation queries and in the unlikely event, warranty repairs.

All KUDOS Shower Products are designed and built for greater longevity to ensure that your KUDOS shower will feel and operate like new for many years to come. To support this, all KUDOS shower products carry an unequivocal Lifetime Guarantee against material or manufacturing defects.

Totally clear, UV stable and extremely durable, Lifeshield won’t peel or flake and unlike some other systems you don’t need any specialist cleaners or top-up products to maintain its dirt repellent properties.
