The AKW Braddan shower tray is a 40mm low-profile, level-access shower tray with a slip-resistant surface. It's a popular choice for wet rooms, step-free showers and bathroom adaptations, and it comes in 24 sizes from 800x800mm to 1800x900mm, square and rectangular.
Choose your size, then choose your waste. Every size is available with a GW50 or GW19 gravity waste, with a pumped waste for use with an AKW DigiPump, or as tray only if you already have a compatible AKW waste.
Can't break into the floor for a waste at all, such as a solid concrete floor? Choose the AKW Braddan shower tray with factory-fitted upward pumped waste instead.

Choosing a pumped waste? You'll also need a shower waste pump, such as the AKW M11 DigiPump. Not sure which waste your floor allows? Send us your floor build-up and we'll confirm.
Optional Extras
- AKW Braddan Tray Ramps — aluminium ramps in 20mm and 40mm heights, straight (1800mm, cut to length) or corner (for 900x900mm trays). They bridge the tray edge when the Braddan is installed semi-recessed or surface-mounted.
- Pipe duct kits — available from AKW to avoid re-routing existing pipework. Contact us for pricing.

Frequently Asked Questions
How high is the AKW Braddan shower tray?
The Braddan is only 40mm high, which is what allows it to be installed as a level-access, surface-mounted or step-in tray.
Can the Braddan be fitted on a wooden floor?
Yes. AKW state it is suitable for wooden, concrete and screeded floors. Full level access is not possible on a concrete floor.
Which waste should I choose?
Choose a gravity waste (GW50 or GW19) where there's natural fall to the drain; the GW19 is the more compact of the two. Where there's no fall, choose a pumped waste and add an AKW DigiPump. If the floor can't be broken into at all, the Braddan with factory-fitted upward pumped waste is the one to go for.
Can I buy the tray without a waste?
Yes. Select Tray Only - No Waste from the waste dropdown.
Do you sell ramps for the Braddan?
Yes. AKW Braddan tray ramps come in 20mm and 40mm heights, straight or corner, for semi-recessed and surface-mounted installations.
Can I cut the Braddan tray to size?
Only the 1800mm trays — they come with a trim-to-length kit and can be cut down to 1500mm to fit an alcove.
