Standard

Standard clear glass is a versatile and widely-used type of glass known for its clarity and transparency. While it is typically colorless, it may have a slight green tint due to the presence of iron oxide in the raw materials used to make the glass.

Low iron glass close up image

Low-Iron

Low iron glass is made with a reduced iron content, which makes it clearer and more transparent than standard glass. It is often used in applications where clarity and aesthetics are important, such as in display cases and architectural features.

Standard glass splashbacks are made from clear glass and are typically used to protect walls from splashes and spills in kitchens, bathrooms, and other areas.

They are available in various thicknesses and can be customized to fit any space. While they are generally clear, they can also have a slight green tint due to the iron content in the glass.
