CARE for your glass
Glasstrends is pleased to offer customers the option of having
their glass Clearshield treated. Clearshield is a lasting protective
barrier which is applied to the shower glass to prevent limescale
and other residue damaging and staining the glass surface.
Clearshield coated glass resists staining, is easier to clean and
prevents the growth of bacteria. We recommend using the
aftercare cleaner to guarantee the sparkling finish of your glass
for many years to come.
WATERPROOFING
Glasstrends offers a comprehensive range of water seals and
design detailing to provide a waterproof frameless shower.
We strongly recommend that the shower rose or body jets do
not face the door. Glasstrends cannot guarantee a waterproof
frameless shower door when the shower rose or body jets are
directed towards the door. Glasstrends individually assesses
every shower and discusses options with the client before
manufacture to ensure the design incorporates the most efficient
method of waterproofing. Some showers do not require any
waterproof detailing. For example when the shower is being
fitted to a wet room floor where there is sufficient drainage built
into the floor, any water escaping around the door will naturally
flow back underneath it, towards the drain. We can also provide
sealing solutions for steam showers where an air tight door
may be required.
Safety glass
All glass used in Glasstrends frameless showers is 10mm thick
toughened safety glass which is manufactured to British and
European Safety Standard BS EN 12150:2000 and impact
tested to BS EN 12600:2002. Toughened glass is a thermally
strengthened glass which is five to seven times stronger than
non-toughened glass. In the event of breakage, toughened glass
will fracture into small uniform fragments with dulled edges to
prevent serious injury.
Glass Options
You can choose to have your shower glass made with
Standard Clear Glass
which has a natural green hue or
Ultra Clear Low Iron Glass
which does not. For example
when looking through
Standard Clear Glass
with a white
background the glass will appear quite green. Because
Ultra Clear Low Iron Glass
is optically clearer, it is almost
unnoticeable against the same white background.
There are various applications available to provide colour and
texture to your shower glass. Please call us and one of our
technical advisers will be happy to discuss your requirements
and offer some options for you.
