At a glance

  • Are you planning a bathroom renovation and wondering which material is the best choice? We explain the features of different bathroom materials such as ceramic, glass or wood and their applications.

The best materials for your bathroom

The right material will transform your bathroom into a wellness oasis. Tiles are a classic choice. Villeroy & Boch’s wall and floor tiles combine easy-care properties with different sizes, designs and colours. If you want to use tiles as a floor covering, they will need to be robust and anti-slip. Large bathroom tiles create a consistent effect and make small bathrooms look larger. For bathroom walls, we recommend high-quality earthenware wall tiles. 

Modern bathroom design with a freestanding bath, a wooden washstand with a surface-mounted washbasin, a toilet, round mirrors and beige walls, with natural light coming in through an open door.
A modern grey bathroom with a Squaro Infinity shower tray and a brown chair.
A bathroom with an Artis washbasin in the colour Frozen and Finion furniture.

Materials such as wood and glass are still popular choices in the bathroom. Glass shower cabinets look modern and elegant. High-quality wooden panels and wooden furniture create a sense of warmth in the bathroom. If you are looking for a material for your bathroom renovation, you can also choose a special plaster instead of tiles.

Tip

For a natural alternative to bathroom tiles you can use materials such as the lime-based plaster Tadelakt. Its water-repellent, antifungal properties even make it suitable as a shower back panel.

A new take on bathroom design

Your bathroom is your very own wellness retreat. This makes it even more important to choose bathroom materials with care. Both the look and feel of sanitary objects will play a role. The design of the ceiling, walls and bathroom floor will also set the tone.
