Fluted Glass Shower Screens Melbourne
Standard clear glass is the most common and practical choice for frameless shower screens. It offers a clean, simple look that works in almost any bathroom without adding unnecessary cost.
At Famous Frameless, we supply and install custom frameless shower screens using high-quality clear toughened glass across Melbourne, designed to suit your space and layout.
What Is Standard Clear Glass?
Standard clear glass is toughened safety glass with a slight natural green tint, which is most noticeable along the edges or when installed against light-coloured tiles.
In most bathrooms, this tint is subtle and goes largely unnoticed, making it a reliable and cost-effective option.

If you’re after a straightforward, functional shower screen without overcomplicating things, standard clear glass is usually the way to go.
Clear Glass vs Low Iron Glass
One of the most common questions is whether to upgrade to low iron glass.
Standard Clear Glass:
- Slight green tint
- More affordable
- Suits most bathrooms
- No green tint
- Higher clarity, especially on white tiles
- Premium option
If your bathroom features white tiles or you’re going for a high-end finish, low iron glass may be worth considering.

Frequently asked questions about standard clear glass shower screens
Here are some of the most common questions people ask about narrow-reeded glass shower screens.
Why does standard clear glass have a green tint?
The green tint comes from the natural iron content present in standard glass. It’s usually most noticeable:
- Along the edges of the glass
- When installed against white or very light tiles
In many bathrooms, especially those with darker tiles or mixed finishes, the tint is subtle and not a concern.
Is clear glass cheaper than low iron?
Yes, standard clear glass is more affordable and is the most commonly used option.
Is standard clear glass lower quality than low iron glass?
No – standard clear glass is not lower quality.
Both standard clear glass and low iron glass are toughened safety glass and meet the same strength and safety standards. The difference between them is not durability or performance — it’s purely visual.
Standard clear glass has a slight green tint due to the natural iron content in the glass. Low iron glass removes that tint, resulting in a clearer, more neutral appearance.
In terms of strength, lifespan, and day-to-day use, both options perform the same.
