As we all know, the regular thickness of raw glass ranges from 2mm to 19mm, so how to choose the thickness of deeply processed tempered shower glass?
The principle of choosing the thickness of bathroom glass is not simply that thicker is better, but should be considered comprehensively based on the following three factors, all of which are indispensable.
1. Safety: Safety must be the primary consideration when choosing the shower glass thickness. The tempered glass strength is 5 times higher than ordinary glass. In addition, the greater the thickness of the glass, the stronger the impact resistance and the higher the security. Moreover, the thicker the glass, the better it is at isolating sound, providing better privacy and protection.
2. Decoration style: The thickness of the glass will affect the overall appearance and style of the shower room. Thicker glass often gives a more solid and luxurious feel, while thinner glass is more lightweight and modern. This needs to be consistent with the overall style of home decoration and meet personal aesthetic needs.
Additionally, the type of shower door glass and installation method may also require different thicknesses of glass.
For example, wall-mounted sliding doors and hinged doors usually require thinner glass, while fixed glass shower screens (Walking-in Screen) are best served with thicker glass.
3. Budget: A very simple cost calculation principle, thicker glass will be more expensive. Therefore, when choosing the glass thickness, you need to choose a suitable and safe thickness that fits your budget.
After comprehensively considering these three factors, with the development of the shower glass market and products, different markets and countries have gradually formed their own preferred and standardized bathroom glass thicknesses.
