Newer materials are being used for corner baths these days as well. Lucite is a popular material, and it is heated to various temperatures during the molding process, which helps to form a high quality, consistently durable bath tub shell. Baseboards are 15mm thick on many models, and fully encased, to make the tubs more stable. You can purchase corner baths without tap holes as well, which leaves you with the option of mounting deck or wall mounted taps.
