Durable Solutions for Government Housing: Meridian Solid Surface® Shower Bases and Wall Panels

September 9, 2025

When building new government housing or updating existing structures, it is important to find materials that are durable enough to withstand repeated use. Traditional tile bathroom products can crack harbor bacteria and mold, and look unsightly as grout deteriorates. Meridian Solid Surface® shower bases and tile-pattern wall panels are a heavy-duty, clean and quality solution for government housing. Whether you are installing bathroom products for active military personnel and their families, Meridian Solid Surface® can withstand use for years to come.

The Meridian Solid Surface® Advantage

Meridian Solid Surface® shower bases and wall panels offer several advantages over traditional tile shower products. The bases and wall panels are virtually indestructible for durability you can count on. They are easy to clean and scratches, if they happen, can be buffed out. Traditional tile can foster the growth of bacteria and fungus, but the non-porous material of Meridian Solid Surface® gives bacteria no place to take hold. Thanks to their durability, Meridian Solid Surface® bathroom products provide long-term cost savings.

Unmatched Durability

Government housing sees high volumes of people using bathroom facilities each day. Bathroom products need to be durable to withstand this constant use. Meridian Solid Surface® shower bases and wall panels can handle repeated use with no problem. They are virtually indestructible and stronger than tile. If the showers get scratched, imperfections can easily be buffed away with light sanding instead of replacing the entire shower. When you need military-strength bathroom products, turn to Meridian Solid Surface® for solutions.

Cleanliness Solutions

Keeping military personnel and their families healthy is a top priority. Meridian Solid Surface® bathroom products are manufactured using a non-porous material that will not allow for the growth of bacteria, fungus, mold, or mildew. Since they are designed with no seams or grout lines, Meridian Solid Surface® shower products are easy to clean with no crevices for dirt to hide. 

Easy Installation

Meridian Solid Surface® showers are easy to install. Tile installation is a lengthy and tedious process. In comparison, Meridian Solid Surface® products can be installed with efficiency in mind. When you are building or renovating government housing, you will likely be installing multiple showers. Save time and effort with easy installation using Meridian Solid Surface® showers.

Classic Design

Following design trends may look stylish at the moment, but as trends quickly change, you are left with outdated fixtures or the need to replace showers that are still in good condition. With timeless designs and colors, you will never be in this position with Meridian Solid Surface® bathroom products. Our shower bases and wall panels feature classic styling that will look good today, tomorrow, and years down the road. Choose from a range of colors that will complement any bathroom aesthetic.

Customizable Options

Tower Industries manufactures Meridian Solid Surface® shower products in customizable options. If you need ADA-compliant shower bases that can be walked or rolled into, we provide barrier-free entry shower pans. We also have the option to customize your shower bases if your project requires unique dimensions, drain configurations or threshold options.

Slip Resistant for Safety

Showers can pose a serious slipping hazard for users. Meridian Solid Surface® shower bases are made to be slip resistant. This eliminates worry over shower injuries caused by slippery floors. The textured base provides additional grip, even when wet. To further ensure non-slip safety, the tapered design directs water to flow toward the drain and not pool on the surface.

Each Meridian Solid Surface® product is designed and manufactured in Massillon, Ohio. You can trust our bathroom products to carry a high level of quality. We are committed to producing bathroom solutions that are reliable, durable and hygienic. Our American-made shower bases and wall panels are the top choice for military and government housing.
