Hi guys, can I use Waterproof Hybrid flooring in my shower?

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @jamdanicky. It's brilliant to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about using Hybrid Vinyl Flooring.

Although Hybrid Vinyl can be used in a bathroom, I haven't encountered literature suggesting it can be used within a shower recess. It's a waterproof product designed not to let spills damage it, but under immersion situations that would be experienced in a shower, it will let water penetrate the surface. The actual product is waterproof, but it doesn't provide a waterproof surface under extreme conditions.

I suggest the Johnson Brunswick range of timber-look tiles as a much more appropriate surface for a shower recess.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
