Toughened Glass Splashbacks

Custom-made shower screens for homes

Renovate your bathroom with a made-to-measure tempered glass shower screen, cut to your exact specifications. At Toughened Glass Direct, we’ve made securing professional-grade glass more affordable than high-street shopping.

But how? By focusing on small, made-to-measure glass for DIY/home projects (bought direct), we can offer bespoke shower screens for prices you won’t find anywhere else.

Designed for over-bath screens, wet rooms and showers, our toughened glass panels make personal hygiene easier (and safer).

Sick of water flooding your bathroom floor? Shower curtains are great in the short term, but our screens offer better water containment: toughened shower screen glass will make puddles on the bathroom floor much less likely.

Where shower curtains harbour mould and bacteria, glass shower screens are quick to wipe down. Plus, they’re a long-term investment: once you’ve ordered, your shower screen should protect your bathroom for years to come.

Toughened safety glass explained

With toughened shower screen glass, style and safety go hand in hand. Standard float glass may be economical, but in many cases, it isn’t resilient enough to withstand the wear and tear of busy family bathrooms.

Bumps and sudden temperature changes are common, and your shower screen needs to withstand this kind of impact for the foreseeable. To manufacturer bespoke shower screens, we use toughened glass.

The difference between standard float glass and toughened glass lies in the processing – our glass is heat-treated, making it around 4–5 times stronger.

Where standard glass could shatter into jagged, dangerous shards, toughened glass is designed to shatter into small, blunt-edged granules. In the unlikely event of failure, a tempered glass shower screen offers a secure, long-term solution.

Made to measure for a neater fit.

Why settle for ‘near-enough’ when you could have exactly right? Off-the-shelf shower screens are limited to standard widths and heights, which can create gaps or require bulky framing to bridge the difference.

Our toughened shower screen glass is available in personalised sizes for walk-in showers, wet rooms, alcoves, over-bath layouts and any area where standard retail sizes just won’t work.  

Made-to-measure glass also gives you more control over how your screen works in the room. Where fittings are required, cut-outs can be specified at the time of order, so the panel is manufactured to suit your bathroom from the start.
