Frontline Bathrooms launches AquaKast bath collection in collaboration with Barrie Cutchie
n an industry increasingly shaped by long-term value, material performance and design integrity, Frontline Bathrooms’ latest launch reflects a deliberate shift away from transient trends towards products built for longevity. The new AquaKast bath collection, created in collaboration with British designer Barrie Cutchie, brings together decades of design experience with a clear understanding of how baths must perform in contemporary homes and commercial settings. Cutchie’s influence on the UK bathroom market is well established. Over a career spanning more than forty years, he has played a defining role in reintroducing classical bath forms and refining them for modern use, drawing on early experience restoring period pieces alongside extensive product development work. That heritage underpins the AquaKast collection, which has been designed to feel comfortable in both traditional and modern environments without relying on exaggerated styling or novelty. Instead, the range prioritises proportion, comfort and familiarity. At the core of the collection is AquaKast, a premium material combining high-quality acrylic with stone resin reinforcement. Selected for its

strength, durability and refined surface quality, the material is produced using advanced reverse- moulding technology to ensure a smooth, flawless finish before each bath is carefully hand-finished and inspected. While the baths have a reassuring sense of weight and solidity, they are engineered to be weight-optimised, helping to simplify handling and installation across a wide variety of property types, including upper-floor bathrooms and older homes where access can present challenges. The AquaKast range offers a broad selection of bath types, including compact oval and slipper designs, back-to-wall, as well as traditional boat baths. This breadth allows retailers to address differing room sizes and layouts within a single,
coherent collection. Practical detailing has been integrated throughout, with features such as discreet pipework recesses, integrated tap ledges and space-conscious dimensions designed to support real-world bathroom planning rather than purely visual appeal.
All models are supplied in gloss white as standard, with the option for sanding and painting available across the collection. This provides retailers with additional scope for personalisation, enabling the bath to be specified in a colour that complements the wider scheme without compromising material performance. Priced at an RRP of £1,600 and supported by a lifetime guarantee, the collection has been positioned to deliver strong design credentials while remaining commercially accessible.
Available exclusively toFrontline Bathrooms retailers, the AquaKast collection represents a confident evolution for the Aqua brand, grounded in experience, material quality and a clear understanding of what both the trade and end users require from a modern bath range.
