A glass shower cabin – an element of elegance and functionality of your bathroom

Our busy everyday lives leave little time to indulge in a simple childhood joy – a bubble bath! Baths have been replaced by the more popular glass showers and glass shower structures, as they save both time and space in your bathroom. The bathroom is one of the most important spaces in a modern home. Of course, it must meet relevant technical measurements and requirements; however, when furnished with loving taste, it can become a space of real satisfaction in your home.

A bit of history – the first modern shower cabin was invented in 1767 by the Englishman William Fitham It was equipped in a rather unusual way: a tank was installed above the metal shower structure, manually filled with warm water. Used water accumulated in a pan in which the bather stood. From time to time, the bather had to use a hand pump to pump the cooled, soiled water into the upper tank for reuse. Modern shower lovers are unlikely to like this procedure. Later, shower cabins began to utilize running water supplied by pressing a lever; various materials had to be used for their manufacture. By the end of the 19th century, shower cabins began to acquire the look and shape we are accustomed to, and their production and use became widespread.

Where to use glass structures for showers and bathrooms – due to the properties that distinguish glass favorably from other materials, it becomes indispensable in the arrangement of modern bathrooms. Light transmission, moisture resistance, safety and durability make glass structures increasingly popular in bathrooms within residential apartments, private houses, cottages, hotels, health and sports clubs, fitness centers, saunas, swimming pools, water parks and water-related recreation centers.

Glass shower fittings – the right fittings play an important role in the modern glass shower. Currently, there is a huge selection of mounting elements for showers. GlassPro uses only high quality fittings made of stainless steel or chrome-plated brass. These products, designed specifically for use in humid rooms, are made of materials that are resistant to rust and have additional anti-corrosion coatings. Hinges for shower cabins are usually equipped with a self-leading mechanism and are designed for 500,000 openings / closings. You can find more details and choose accessories here…

The fittings for frameless shower cabins are made of reliable stainless metals and are attached to the glass through holes drilled in it, eliminating the need for adhesives.
