One of the critical aspects of a standard shower cubicle or enclosure is its maintenance. It is not always easy to keep it always transparent, free from traces of limescale, soap and various detergents. To achieve it usually the continuous cleaning is necessary.

Over time, the signs of deterioration and the opalescence effects are observed on the glass that make its maintenance particularly laborious.

A few months ago, Pilkington Italia has launched to the market Pilkington OptiShower™ a new type of glass specifically designed to solve such problems.

The glass thanks to its special surface coating, helps to keep the shower enclosure transparent and clean over time. The highly resistant coating has an anti-corrosion properties that protect glass surface and the shower box looks always nice and is easy to clean.

Due to its high resistance to abrasion and a high durability, the coating doesn’t deteriorate during the designed working life of the shower cubicle, keeping all its properties constant over time.

Pilkington OptiShower™ is a very useful product also for public showers (swimming pools and sports facilities) and is ideal for hotels, where the reduction of maintenance time can be a considerable cost saving.

Further applications of Pilkington OptiShower™ may include wall coverings in bathrooms or wet rooms in general.

Thanks to the anti-corrosion coating, it can also be used in the naval sector.

Glass processors appreciate the pyrolytic coating of Pilkington OptiShower™, as it is easy to work with using standard techniques. In fact this product can be toughened, bent, laminated as well as silk-screened even on the coating side.
