Saint-Gobain Glass has launched TIMELESS庐, an innovative shower glass designed to meet the growing demand for more sustainable, easy to clean, anti-corrosion glass.

is a fully mineral coating that achieves long-lasting transparency thanks to an advanced production process that features an exclusive magnetron coating. The breakthrough technology, developed by Saint-Gobain Glass R&D team, creates an anti-corrosion glass that does not contain intentionally added organic chemicals like fluorinated compounds (e.g. PFAS). In addition, made of flat glass, TIMELESS is fully recyclable. Everyday cleaning is easy and limescale traces can be simply removed using natural agents such as vinegar.

TIMELESS glass addresses two major concerns for glass professionals in today鈥檚 market: the need for durable, crystal-clear shower glass, and the demand for safer, more sustainable products. Consumers expect shower glass that remains transparent over time and is easy to maintain. At the same time, installers and fabricators face increasing pressure to provide solutions that minimise chemical usage, aligning with tighter environmental regulations and the industry鈥檚 shift toward responsible practices. TIMELESS delivers on both fronts, providing an opportunity for glass processors to offer a premium product that combines superior performance with care for people and the planet.

Magnetron treatment
TIMELESS is manufactured using Saint-Gobain Glass magnetron coating technology, an advanced industrial process that deposits a highly resistant metal oxide layer onto the glass surface. This coating provides robust protection against the corrosive effects of water exposure, preventing the unsightly white veiling commonly seen as glass ages. The result is a glass that maintains its clarity and neutral appearance over the long term, offering a high-quality solution that stands up to daily use in humid environments like showers.

Short- and long-term benefits
TIMELESS offers easier cleaning in day-to-day use. Any anti-limescale agent, including natural cleaners like vinegar, can be used to remove white marks. Over the long term, the anti-corrosion treatment prevents the gradual whitening that often develops with standard glass. Instead, it remains clear, shining and attractive. Following extensive ageing testing, Saint-Gobain Glass is so confident in the glass anti-corrosion performance that it is guaranteed for ten years.

TIMELESS also offers a safer choice. As European regulations place growing restrictions on the types of coating used for shower glass, Saint-Gobain Glass is leading the way with commitment, backed by its leading expertise in shower customer experience.

For glass processors looking to supply the market with shower glass that delivers on transparency, durability, and sustainability, TIMELESS is the smart choice. With its innovative magnetron coating, long-lasting performance, and reduced environment impact, TIMELESS sets a new standard for the shower glass industry.

TIMELESS shower glass features a virtually invisible coating on its clear glass surface. Even after more than 14,000 showers*, it retains its pristine appearance.

*TIMELESS is designed to withstand the equivalent of +14,000 showers, as estimated by Saint-Gobain鈥檚 product development team. This estimation is based on rigorous testing under harsh conditions, simulating the wear and tear equivalent to 10 years of regular use by a family of four individuals under regular cleaning conditions.
