Pilkington OptiShower™

Over time, glass exposed to water, heat, and humidity can corrode, diminishing its transparency and aesthetics. Pilkington OptiShower™ anti-corrosion glass from GGI is an excellent solution to this problem. It makes cleaning and maintaining shower glass easier and provides enhanced protection. This durable protection allows glazing contractors to offer added value to shower enclosure installations, ensuring lasting benefits for the end user.

Features

Ideal Shower Protection for Lasting Results

Pilkington OptiShower™ is the ideal glass solution for use in humid environments.

It offers a modern and easy-to-clean shower solution. For standard glass cleaning, we recommend using a soft cloth, water and a neutral detergent. Avoid aggressive products that could damage the coating thus compromising the glass transparency.

BENEFITS

  • Durable, on-line coated clear float glass that provides a protective barrier to reduce corrosion and facilitate ease of cleaning the glass surface.
  • Thanks to its high abrasion resistance, the durable pyrolytic coating does not deteriorate during the lifetime of the shower enclosure and retains its properties over time.
  • Easy to process using standard techniques. It can be heat-treated, laminated and digitally printed on the coated side.
  • Suitable for further additional treatments to improve limescale protection and aid cleaning.
  • Available in extra clear version Pilkington OptiShower™ OW (coating on low-iron extra clear Pilkington Optiwhite™ substrate).
  • Limited lifetime warranty available

APPLICATIONS

Pilkington OptiShower™ is ideal for bath and shower enclosures, including glass walls to create wet rooms and spa enclosures. It can also be used in other applications such as maritime and naval industries thanks to its high corrosion resistance over time.
