 Perfect Slope. Zero Leaks. Install in Minutes.

Stop wasting time with messy mortar beds. Angesen® Pre-Sloped Shower Trays provide a factory-engineered 2% slope that ensures perfect drainage every time. Made from 100% waterproof high-density XPS, it’s the professional’s choice for luxury, worry-free shower installations.

Features &  Advantages

I. Precision Engineered Slope

  • The Problem: Manual mortar sloping is time-consuming and often leads to standing water or tile cracking.

  • The Angesen Solution: Each tray is CNC-machined to provide a consistent 2% (1/4″ per foot) slope toward the drain. This guarantees optimal water flow and a flat surface for perfect tile adhesion.

II. 100% Waterproof & Mold-Proof 

  • Unlike traditional “liner” systems that can trap moisture and cause smells, Angesen trays are made of closed-cell XPS foam. Even if the tile grout fails, the tray itself remains a 100% water-tight barrier.

III. Ultra-High Compressive Strength 

  • Engineered to withstand heavy point loads. It easily supports large format porcelain tiles and wheelchairs for barrier-free (ADA) accessibility without any deflection or “spongy” feel.

Technical Specifications

Feature Angesen XPS Backer Board Cement Board Gypsum Board (Drywall)
Weight Ultralight (approx. 0.7 – 1.2 lbs/sqft) Heavy (approx. 3 – 4 lbs/sqft) Medium (approx. 1.8 – 2.2 lbs/sqft)
Easily handled by a single person. Requires two people to lift and install. Fragile and prone to breakage.

Water Resistance

 100% Waterproof Moderate Poor
Closed-cell structure; prevents mold and rot. Absorbs water, becomes heavier, and leaks. Disintegrates and grows mold when damp.
Installation Speed Very Fast Slow Moderate
Cut with a utility knife; ready for tiling immediately. Requires power cutters; creates heavy dust and mess. Requires joint taping and drying time.
Insulation (R-Value) Excellent (0.034 W/m·K) Poor Poor
Acts as a thermal break for underfloor heating. No insulation properties; high heat loss. Low thermal resistance.
Compressive Strength High (≥300 kPa) Very High Low
Rigid substrate for heavy-duty floors. Strong but brittle. Susceptible to indentation.
Bond Strength 0.5 – 1.0 MPa 0.3 – 0.6 MPa < 0.3 MPa
Superior adhesion for large format tiles. Standard adhesion levels. Risk of tile delamination.
