Fiberglass is defined as a "material made from extremely fine fibers of glass" which are silica-based. Their most attractive feature is their high ratio of surface area to weight. This makes them simultaneously strong and light-weight. Ever since its development, fiberglass has found its way into daily life acting as the foundation for alot of modern technology and thermal insulation. It has even been applied to shower stalls, which benefit from seamless insulation.
Fiberglass shower enclosures are excellent in many ways. For cold winters when you absolutely cannot sacrifice any warmth, the fiberglass in the shower will guarantee that no cold air will come in while ensuring that the heat from the hot water will be able circulate. Another big benefit of fiberglass shower enclosures is the fact that they are easy to maintain. Because the fiberglass material is a single unit with no seams, it can resist soap scum and moisture buildup. It therefore does not grow mold or mildew which is something that acts against so many conventional showers. Fiberglass showers can be customized according your specific needs and can come with anything--from installed seating and safety rails for easy maneuvering to cutting edge hydro massage devices.
The only downside to fiberglass shower enclosures is their often steep prices. The synthesis of fiber glass is a sophisticated and therefore expensive process so the construction of such a shower would inevitably set anyone back a couple thousand dollars.
