Monday, April 30, 2007

ProSpec, Bonsal American's commercial brand, introduced its new PreFormed shower seats for use in bath installation projects at the Covering Show in Chicago in mid-April. Installing ProSpec shower seats is easier and less time consuming than traditional methods because they are already assembled and simply require fitting the seat into a frame.

"The easy installation of these PreFormed seats allows for significant time savings," said Kevin McFadden, Vice President, Construction Products West/Product Management. "Instead of building the seat to fit the shower, these allow installers to frame out the space, the simply slide the seat into place." The PreFormed seats' sturdy design includes high-density materials and fiberglass reinforcements. The seats are also lightweight and waterproof.

There were several demonstrations at the Coverings Show, explaining the easy and speedy installations of ProSpec's new shower seats for professionals and do-it-yourselfers alike.
