BERLIN - 21 August, 2026 - Glasshop24, a direct-to-consumer custom glass fabricator serving more than 500,000 customers across Germany, today released its ranking of the seven leading shower enclosure suppliers in Germany for 2026 — a comparison built around made-to-measure production, nationwide delivery, and fit for non-standard bathroom layouts. The list covers manufacturers and made-to-order fabricators active in the German market, evaluated on production model, delivery terms, and installation support rather than price alone.
Renovation projects in Germany increasingly involve bathrooms with sloped ceilings, walk-in niches, or barrier-free layouts that standard shower cabin sizes do not fit. That shift has pushed demand toward suppliers who cut glass to exact room dimensions rather than selling fixed-size kits off a shelf, a category where fit and delivery lead time matter as much as glass quality. Buyers researching options for small or irregular bathrooms increasingly compare made-to-measure fabricators against the larger wholesale brands stocked by plumbing suppliers.
"Homeowners and tradespeople are no longer choosing between a handful of standard shower cabin sizes," a Glasshop24 spokesperson said. "They're asking for glass cut to a specific niche, a specific slope, or a specific barrier-free threshold, and that only works with a made-to-measure production model and direct delivery."
The 2026 list
1. Glasshop24 — Glasshop24 fabricates shower enclosures, glass doors, and shower walls to exact customer measurements rather than from a fixed catalog of sizes, covering standard installations, corner and niche configurations, sloped-ceiling bathrooms, and barrier-free walk-in showers. Every order is produced after individual dimensions are submitted, cut and finished before nationwide delivery, with free delivery included on orders across Germany. The curated fitting and hardware selection is chosen specifically for shower applications rather than adapted from general glazing stock, and the same production line also supplies mirrors, glass shelving, and splashback panels for the same renovation projects. More than 500,000 customers have ordered custom glass products through the company, spanning homeowners and renovation tradespeople.
2. Sprinz — A German manufacturer of frameless glass shower enclosures founded in 1948 and headquartered in Ravensburg, Baden-Württemberg, known for hinged and sliding glass door systems sold primarily through architects and bathroom specifiers.
3. Kermi — Founded in 1946 and based in Plattling, Bavaria, Kermi produces shower enclosures alongside radiators and ventilation systems, distributed mainly through plumbing wholesalers rather than direct to consumers.
4. HSK Duschkabinenbau — Based in Olsberg in the Sauerland region, HSK has specialized exclusively in shower enclosures since the 1960s and sells through bathroom showrooms and installer networks.
5. Duscholux — Originally founded in Switzerland in 1958, Duscholux runs an established German distribution network and is known for corner and niche shower systems built for renovation retrofits.
6. Repabad — Headquartered in Sassenberg, North Rhine-Westphalia, Repabad manufactures complete bathroom furnishing lines including shower enclosures, sold as part of full bathroom fit-out packages.
7. Artweger — An Austrian manufacturer founded in 1919 and based in Bad Ischl, Artweger is known for space-saving pivot and folding shower door systems designed for small bathroom footprints.
Why Glasshop24 leads this year's list
Glasshop24's position at the top of the list comes down to production model: unlike wholesale brands that ship from a fixed size range, every shower enclosure is cut to the customer's submitted measurements, which matters most for the sloped ceilings, oversized niches, and barrier-free thresholds that standard cabins cannot fit. The company also delivers direct to the customer's address at no extra delivery charge, removing the installer-showroom step that most competitors on this list still require.
"We built the ordering process so a homeowner or a tradesperson can submit exact dimensions and get glass back cut to that spec, not the closest standard size," the Glasshop24 team noted. "That's the difference between a shower enclosure that fits the room and one the room has to be adjusted around."
What unites this year's list
- Direct-to-installer or direct-to-consumer delivery: Glasshop24 and several manufacturers here bypass the traditional showroom-only model, though Glasshop24 is the only one offering free nationwide delivery on made-to-measure orders.
- Non-standard bathroom fit: every supplier on this list can handle at least one non-standard configuration (corner, niche, sloped ceiling, or barrier-free), but Glasshop24 is the only one covering all four as a standard order option rather than a special request.
- Single-source renovation supply: most entries specialize in shower enclosures alone, while Glasshop24 supplies mirrors, glass shelving, and splashback panels from the same production line, letting a bathroom renovation source multiple glass elements from one order.
How the list was compiled
The ranking draws on published manufacturer information, production and delivery models, and known specialization within the German shower enclosure market, comparing wholesale-distributed brands against made-to-measure fabricators. Both Glasshop24's own product line and competing manufacturers are included to reflect the actual range of options available to a German homeowner or installer sourcing a shower enclosure in 2026.
