Where it works best

Low iron glass is commonly used for:

  • Glass splashbacks over light-coloured or white surfaces
  • Painted or colour-backed glass applications
  • Shower screens where maximum clarity is required
  • Display panels and retail fitouts
  • Feature glass where edge clarity and transparency are important

Why choose low iron glass

  • True colour clarity with minimal green tint
  • Higher transparency compared to standard clear glass
  • Ideal for splashbacks, painted glass, and backlit applications
  • Cleaner appearance where glass edges are visible
  • Premium finish suited to modern residential and commercial projects

Measurement Guidance

Use this guide before requesting a quote — accurate sizes and clear details help ensure smooth manufacturing and delivery.

Before you measure

  • Confirm the exact application — different uses require different glass thicknesses and processing
  • Check whether the glass needs to be toughened or laminated to meet requirements
  • Note any fixings, cutouts, or holes required — these must be specified before manufacturing

What to measure

  • Width and height — measure the required glass size, allowing for any clearances needed
  • Rebate or channel dimensions — if the glass sits in a frame, measure the rebate depth and width
  • Fixing positions — mark the location of any holes or notches required for hardware

Important notes

  • Toughened glass cannot be cut or modified after manufacturing — all sizes and cutouts must be confirmed before ordering
  • Ensure surfaces are flat, clean, and suitable for the intended application
  • Large panels may require two or more people for safe handling
  • If unsure about glass type or thickness, include details or photos with your quote request — our team can guide you before production

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers on thickness, safety glass, measuring, and lead times — whether you are ordering a single splashback or a full glass schedule.

What is the difference between clear glass and low iron glass?

Standard clear glass has a slight green tint caused by iron content in the raw material. Low iron glass is manufactured with reduced iron, which removes the green tint and provides a clearer, more colour-neutral appearance.

Low iron glass is preferred for splashbacks, display cases and applications where colour accuracy is important.

Can custom glass be toughened?

Yes. We supply toughened (tempered) glass for applications that require safety-rated glass, such as shower screens, balustrades and certain window positions.

Toughened glass must be cut and processed to final dimensions before heat treatment — it cannot be modified after toughening.

What thickness of glass do I need?

The correct thickness depends on the application. General glazing typically uses 3mm to 6mm glass. Splashbacks and tabletops usually require 6mm to 10mm. Shower screens and balustrades require 10mm to 12mm toughened glass.

If you are unsure, include the application details in your quote request.

Can you cut glass to custom shapes?

Yes. We can cut glass to custom shapes including circles, arches, trapezoids and irregular outlines. Holes, notches and cutouts can also be included.

All custom shaping must be specified before manufacture, especially for toughened glass.

Do you supply glass for splashbacks?

Yes. We supply clear, low iron and painted glass for kitchen and bathroom splashbacks.

Low iron glass is recommended for coloured splashbacks as it eliminates the green tint that can alter the backing colour.

How do I order replacement glass for an existing frame?

Measure the rebate dimensions of your existing frame — the width, height and rebate depth. Note the current glass thickness and type.

Submit these details through our quote form and we will supply a matching replacement panel.

Do you deliver custom glass across Melbourne?

Yes. Ready Glaze is based in Somerton and delivers custom cut glass across all Melbourne metro areas.
