Bathtub Screens
The bathtub screens and enclosures by Infinito Italian Bath Atelier make it possible to use the bathtub as a shower area while helping to contain water splashes and improve everyday bathroom functionality.
They are designed for rectangular, corner and asymmetrical bathtubs and are available in different dimensions, configurations and opening systems.
The collection includes complete enclosures for corner bathtubs, fixed or movable over-bath screens, models with sliding panels, folding solutions and reversible glass panels.
The right choice depends on the shape and dimensions of the bathtub, the bathroom layout, the space required for opening and the desired aesthetic effect.
A correctly selected bathtub enclosure preserves the comfort of bathing while adding the practicality of a shower without requiring two separate installations.
Clear glass also maintains greater visual continuity and helps make the bathroom appear brighter, more open and more orderly.
Which bathtub screen or enclosure should you choose?
The choice should begin with the shape and dimensions of the bathtub and the space available for opening the panels.
Complete enclosures are particularly suitable for corner bathtubs, while a single over-bath screen may be sufficient to protect the shower area of a rectangular or asymmetrical bathtub.

Bathtub screens for corner, rectangular and asymmetrical bathtubs
The shape of the bathtub is the first factor to consider.
An enclosure for a corner bathtub must follow the profile of the product correctly and allow the panels to open or slide without interfering with nearby sanitaryware, furniture or walls.
For rectangular bathtubs, a single over-bath screen may be sufficient when the shower is positioned at one end.
This solution protects the area most exposed to water without completely enclosing the bathtub.
Asymmetrical bathtubs require particular attention to their geometry, the installation side and the position of the tapware.
Certain screens, such as Paloma 90 and Lilli Special, are designed for both rectangular and asymmetrical bathtubs.
Before choosing a model, it is therefore important to check not only the length of the bathtub, but also its geometry, the radius of the corners, the width of the rim and the availability of a suitable fixing surface.
Tempered glass and thickness
The models in the collection use tempered glass, often with a thickness of 6 millimetres.
This material is suitable for bathtub screens and enclosures because it combines transparency, resistance and a visually light appearance.
Clear glass allows light to pass through and keeps the shape of the bathtub visible.
It is therefore particularly suitable for smaller bathrooms and interiors where a strong visual division could make the room feel more confined.
The quality of the final installation also depends on the profiles, seals, hinges and sliding mechanisms.
Every element must be installed and adjusted correctly to ensure stability, smooth movement and effective splash containment.
Sliding, folding, fixed and rotating panels
The type of opening affects the space required in front of the bathtub, ease of access and the everyday use of the screen.
Sliding panels
Sliding panels are particularly useful when the space in front of the bathtub is limited.
They move parallel to the bathtub rim and do not require a clear area for outward opening.
Folding panels
Folding or concertina screens can be folded back when they are not being used.
This solution makes access to the bathtub easier and can be practical in family bathrooms or when the inner rim needs to remain easily accessible.
Rotating panels
Rotating screens can move inwards or outwards.
The Flipper model, for example, rotates through 180 degrees and is reversible, providing greater flexibility during installation and use.
Fixed panels
Fixed panels prioritise visual simplicity and structural stability.
They are suitable when the remaining access to the bathtub is sufficiently wide and there is no need to move the glass after every use.
Reversible bathtub screens
A reversible bathtub screen can be installed on either the right or left side, depending on the position of the bathtub and the shower area.
This feature offers greater design flexibility and reduces the risk of purchasing a configuration that is incompatible with the bathroom.
Reversibility should nevertheless always be checked on the individual product page.
Even when the glass panel is reversible, the position of the tapware, shower head, walls and nearby elements may determine the most suitable installation side.
Before installation, it is therefore advisable to establish precisely where the shower will be used and in which direction the screen should open, fold or rotate.
Profiles and finishes
The profiles perform both a technical and aesthetic function.
Chrome finishes coordinate easily with most bathroom tapware and create a bright, contemporary appearance.
Certain models, such as Paloma 120, are also available with white or satin aluminium profiles.
These options make it easier to integrate the screen into minimalist bathrooms, interiors with satin-finish tapware or compositions characterised by softer tones.
The selected finish should ideally be coordinated with the taps, handles, accessories, profiles of other glass elements and the overall style of the bathroom.
Measurements and space planning
Before purchasing a bathtub screen or enclosure, the bathtub and the surrounding walls must be measured accurately.
The nominal dimensions of the product should be compared with the actual dimensions of the bathtub rim and with any available adjustment tolerances.
It is important to check:
the length and width of the bathtub;
the available height;
whether the walls are vertical;
the presence of projecting or uneven tiles;
the position of the tapware;
the space required for panels, hinges and profiles;
the distance from sanitaryware, furniture, doors and windows.
For corner enclosures, both sides must be measured.
For single over-bath screens, the precise fixing point and the available surface on the bathtub rim must also be identified.
Bathtub-screen installation
A bathtub screen must be installed on a stable, even and properly waterproofed surface.
The profiles must be fixed securely and aligned accurately to avoid stress on the glass and difficulty during opening.
The seals and contact points with the bathtub must be sealed correctly to limit water leakage.
Inaccurate installation can cause leaks, panel movement or premature wear of the components.
For enclosures made up of several panels, the guides and sliding systems must be adjusted carefully.
For rotating or folding screens, the movement radius must be checked and kept free from obstacles.
Cleaning and maintenance
After use, it is advisable to remove water from the glass with a squeegee and dry the areas close to the profiles.
This simple routine helps limit the formation of limescale and water marks.
For regular cleaning, non-abrasive products suitable for glass and metal profiles should be used.
Abrasive sponges and aggressive cleaning products may damage the surfaces, finishes or seals.
Sliding guides, hinges and rotating mechanisms should be checked periodically.
The seals may also require cleaning or replacement over time to maintain effective water containment.
Bathtub screens for homes, hotels and hospitality facilities
In a private home, a bathtub screen can make the main bathroom, guest bathroom or family bathroom more versatile.
It allows users to alternate between showering and bathing without occupying the space required for two separate installations.
In hotels and hospitality facilities, an over-bath screen can improve the practicality of the bathroom and help keep the floor drier while guests use the shower.
In contract projects, ease of cleaning, simple operation, component durability and the possibility of carrying out maintenance quickly should also be considered.
The selected model should be compatible with the shape of the bathtub, the bathroom layout and the expected frequency of use.
Frequently asked questions about bathtub screens
What is the difference between a bathtub enclosure and an over-bath screen?
A bathtub enclosure may surround a larger part or even the entire perimeter of the bathtub.
An over-bath screen is generally a single panel, or a smaller group of panels, installed on the bathtub rim to protect the area mainly used for showering.
Can a bathtub screen be installed on any bathtub?
Not always.
The shape, dimensions, rim width, installation side and compatibility with the fixing system must all be checked.
Is a sliding or folding screen better?
It depends on the available space and the intended use.
Sliding panels are useful when there is not enough space for outward opening.
Folding screens allow more of the bathtub rim to be cleared when they are not being used.
How thick should the glass be?
Several models in the collection use 6 mm tempered glass.
The glass thickness should nevertheless be considered together with the structure, profiles and opening mechanism.
Are reversible bathtub screens available?
Yes. Certain models can be installed on either the right or left side.
The individual product specifications and compatibility with the bathroom layout should always be checked.
Does an over-bath screen completely prevent water from escaping?
It significantly reduces splashing, but the result depends on the screen dimensions, the position of the shower head, the water pressure and the correct installation of the seals.
How should the measurements be taken?
The bathtub rim, available height, surrounding walls and the space required for opening must all be measured.
For corner enclosures, both sides must be measured.
Are bathtub screens suitable for hotels?
Yes. They make it possible to use the bathtub as a shower and can be a practical solution for hotel rooms, suites and other hospitality facilities.
