Streamlined shower floor channel drain solutions
Unlike traditional point drains, a shower floor channel allows water to drain evenly along its length, reducing pooling and improving overall drainage efficiency. This makes channel drains particularly suitable for walk in showers and large-format tiles.
Our range includes sleek linear designs that can be installed along a wall or at the shower entry and channel grate shower options, offering flexibility in layout and floor gradients. Many options feature tile-insert designs or stylish exposed finishes, allowing you to match your drain to your tiles or bathroom fittings.
Built to last with premium materials
Swan’s channel drain bathroom solutions are crafted from high-quality materials such as stainless steel and durable alloys, ensuring long-term resistance to corrosion, moisture and daily wear. Each design withstands high water flow while maintaining a refined appearance.
With a variety of lengths and finishes available, including modern tones that pair beautifully with bath tapware, our channel drains make it easy to achieve a coordinated bathroom design. For projects that require alternative drainage solutions, we also offer a full range of floor wastes to suit different bathroom layouts.

FAQs
What is the difference between a shower channel drain and a traditional shower grate?
A shower channel drain runs linearly across the shower floor, allowing water to drain evenly along its length, while a traditional shower grate drains water at a single point.
How do I choose the right shower floor channel for my bathroom?
Consider your shower size, tile format, desired placement and finish. Larger showers often benefit from longer channel drains for improved water flow.
What materials are shower channel drains made from?
Most channel drains are made from stainless steel or corrosion-resistant alloys for durability and longevity in wet environments.
Are channel drains compatible with all types of shower tiles?
Yes. Many channel drains are suitable for a wide range of tile types, including large-format and stone tiles. Tile-insert options allow the drain to blend seamlessly with your flooring.
Can I install a linear shower drain in an existing bathroom?
