Who are Purus?
Drainage engineered for demanding wet environments.
Purus is a Swedish manufacturer specialising in drainage products for bathrooms, wetrooms and other high-use environments.
Its products sit at one of the most technically important points in any level-access shower: the connection between the finished floor, water collection, odour protection and the building's waste system.
Purus drainage is used across domestic wetrooms, healthcare, accessible housing, commercial buildings and other projects where dependable water management is essential.
At Independent 4 Life, we supply Purus linear drains, floor gullies, grates, traps and accessories, as well as incorporating Purus drainage into selected complete wetroom configurations.

Nordic plumbing expertise
Purus has developed into a specialist manufacturer of floor
drainage, channels and wet-environment systems.
The hidden part of the wetroom
Good drainage starts long before the water disappears.
The visible grate is only one part of the system. Floor falls, drainage geometry, trapping and the outlet all need to work together to move water away effectively.
Channel or Gully
The drain collects water at a linear edge or individual point, depending on the floor design.
Water Trap
The trap forms an important barrier between the wetroom and the drainage system beneath it.
Waste Outlet
Side, low or bottom outlets connect the drainage product to the building's waste pipework.
What we supply from Purus
Drainage for linear and point-drain wetrooms.
Our current Purus range covers the drainage itself, the visible finishing components and the replaceable parts that keep the system working correctly.

Tiled Floors
Use stainless-steel grates or tile-insert details to integrate the drain into ceramic, porcelain or stone finishes.
Safety Vinyl
Drainage options designed around sheet-vinyl wetroom floors commonly used in accessible and care environments.
Microcement
Adapted linear-drain details can support seamless contemporary microcement wetrooms when specified with the correct system.

Frequently Asked Questions
Questions about Purus drainage.
Common questions about linear drains, floor gullies, traps, floor finishes and accessible wetroom installation.
What is Purus known for?
Purus is particularly known for floor drainage systems, including linear channels, floor gullies, water traps, grates and associated wetroom components.
What is a linear drain?
A linear drain is an elongated drainage channel rather than a single central floor gully. It can be positioned around the edge or within the showering area depending on the system.
What is a Purus Minimax?
Minimax is part of Purus's compact floor-gully range and is commonly used where a point drain is required within wetroom construction.
What is a NOOD water trap?
NOOD is a removable trap design used in selected Purus drainage products to help prevent drainage odours entering the room.
Are Purus drains suitable for accessible wetrooms?
Yes. Purus drainage can be used within level-access wetroom systems. The correct drain should be selected around the floor construction, finish, available depth and required outlet.
Can Purus drainage be used with tiles, vinyl and microcement?
The range includes configurations for different finished floors, including tiled, safety-vinyl and selected microcement wetroom systems. The drain and waterproofing detail must match the intended finish.
Do you stock Purus replacement parts?
Yes. We stock a selection of Purus traps, adaptors, rings and other compatible spare parts and accessories.
