In recent years, Mexico has witnessed the large-scale installation of smart shower glass doors in healthcare facilities, hospitality units, residential structures, and corporate spaces, as smart glasses enable the blockage of light through the surface. Additionally, the light transmission property of smart glasses, which changes with the application of heat, voltage, or light on them, also encourages their adoption in the country. For example, Intelligent Glass provides switchable laminated glass for internal applications, such as showers and bathrooms, and double-glazed units for external glazing, under its smart glass range.
In contemporary times, the Mexican population is preferring frameless shower glass doors over framed doors due to the low maintenance cost and exceptional aesthetic quotient of the former. These doors can be availed through indirect sales channels, such as online channels, big-box stores, and kitchen and bath showrooms, and direct sales channels. In the coming years, a considerable population of Mexico will purchase shower glass doors from direct sales channels because door manufacturers have started offering a wide range of doors to customers at discounted prices.
Frameless and framed shower glass doors available in Mexico are made of tempered and laminated glasses. These doors are made of varying thicknesses— 1/4″, 5/16″, 3/8″, and 1/2″. Shower glass doors of varying thickness are available as single, sliding, or bifold types. In comparison to the residential sector, the commercial sector of Mexico adopted a higher number of shower glass doors due to the increasing construction of commercial structures to accommodate the incoming tourists.
