Why Choose Urban?
Australian made
Our showers are made in Australia, so you’re supporting local manufacturing and getting a product designed for our climate, our beaches and our crowds. You also get local support, from specification through to installation and maintenance advice.
Marine-grade stainless that loves the coast
Each shower column is crafted from marine-grade stainless steel with an electropolished finish that reduces corrosion, plus solid welded construction, an 8mm stainless base plate and stainless fixings. The result is a tough unit made to withstand the harshest coastal climate, from salty sea spray to scorching summer sun.
Water-wise by design
Every activator button runs on a set timer, so water shuts off automatically after each use. No taps left running, no wasted water and no nasty surprises on your water bill. It’s an easy win for councils and venues working towards sustainability targets.
Anti-vandal and low-maintenance
Our showers are vandal resistant, with solid welded bodies, secure fixings and robust push buttons that stand up to constant use. An optional maintenance tap makes servicing quick and simple, so your rinse points stay in action through the busiest months.
Options to Suit Your Site
Foot wash for sandy feet
Add a foot shower combination so swimmers can rinse sand off before heading back to the car park, café or change rooms. It keeps paths, boardwalks and amenities cleaner, and cuts down on cleaning time for your staff.
Colour and custom design
Powder coating lets you match the SS150 to your council’s colour palette or your resort’s style. Need something beyond the standard range, such as a brushed brass look? Urban also offers custom design, so talk to our team about what’s possible for your project.
Where Our Showers Work Best
Our showers are made for high-traffic public places, but work in any outdoor space including:
- Public beaches, foreshores and surf lifesaving clubs
- Aquatic centres and public swimming pools
- Resorts and hotels, from a resort outdoor shower beside the lagoon pool to rinse points at the beach access
- Caravan parks and holiday parks
- Lakes, riverside reserves and waterfront parks
Wherever people swim, surf or play, a well-placed shower improves the visitor experience and helps keep sand and salt out of your facilities.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the best beach shower options for public waterfront areas?
The best options for public waterfront areas are heavy-duty stainless shower towers with timed push buttons, anti-vandal fittings and a foot wash. They handle salt air, sand and constant use while keeping water waste low. Columns set in concrete with an in-ground fixing cage suit open foreshores and beach accesses, while surface-mounted units work well on existing slabs and boardwalks. Multi-head models reduce queues at busy beaches, and a foot shower keeps sand off paths, car parks and amenities. Urban’s Australian-made SS150 and Eco Shower are both built for waterfront conditions.
What type of beach shower is best for high-traffic public beaches?
For high-traffic public beaches, a multi-head shower tower with combined foot washes is the best choice. More outlets serve more swimmers at once, which shortens queues on hot summer days. Look for solid welded stainless construction, vandal resistant buttons and fixings, and timed activators that shut off automatically so water isn’t wasted. A fixed outdoor shower head is a smarter choice than a hand shower in public spaces, with no hose to damage or steal. An in-ground fixing cage adds stability in sandy, windy locations. Our SS150 is available as a double shower with double foot showers, making it a strong fit for patrolled beaches and surf club frontages.
Where can I buy outdoor showers in Australia?
You can buy commercial-grade showers directly from Australian manufacturers like Urban. Our showers are Australian made and supplied to councils, surf clubs, resorts, hotels, aquatic centres and caravan parks across Australia. Buying direct from the manufacturer means you get expert advice on configuration, finish and installation, plus access to spec sheets, installation and maintenance guides, and warranty support. To get started, request a quote on any product page or talk to the expert team at Urban about your site.
What is the best outdoor shower system?
The best outdoor shower system for public use is one that’s durable, water-wise and easy to maintain. Choose a solid welded stainless column with timed push buttons, anti-vandal fittings and a secure in-ground or surface-mounted fixing. Then add options to suit your site, such as a foot shower, hand rails or a maintenance tap for servicing. Finally, pick a supplier with local manufacturing and support. Urban’s range is Australian made and designed for heavy daily use, so it keeps performing long after cheaper systems give out.
