Cast iron roll top bath suppliers often extole the vitues of the cast iron material. However, the Albion baths are made from our unique material called Iso-Enamel which creates a solid, one-piece, 15-20mm thick bath. This gives a luxurious and strong construction much like that of a cast iron bath. Cast iron roll top baths have often been named as the ‘real thing’ by cast iron roll top bath suppliers. However cast iron roll top baths have many drawbacks such as incredible heat loss and excessive weight.
As we are using a resin mineral mix, our baths are not as heavy or cold like cast iron roll top baths. They are around 1/3rd the weight of a comparative quality cast iron roll top bath (65-70kg for a 6 foot Albion bath as opposed to approximately 200kg for a cast iron roll top bath). Albion baths will keep your bath water hotter than a cast iron roll top bath as the material insulates rather than loses heat. Also baths from cast iron roll top bath suppliers have a proneness to chipping and homeowners found that modern liquid cleaners would instantly attack and spoil the white interior surface, unlike Albion baths which are more durable.
The look and feel of our baths is totally unique and cannot be compared to inferior acrylic.
