ID consultancy Bluemap Design was hired by Squid, a startup that had an idea for the bathroom.
"Shower curtains are a hassle to keep clean due to their tendency to accumulate mold and mildew. Additionally, they require frequent replacement, which is not environmentally friendly. Glass shower screens are an excellent alternative, but they can be costly and require professional installation. Fortunately, SQUID and Bluemap Design has solved these problems by offering an innovative, affordable, and easy-to-install DIY shower screen solution."
"The SQUID Acrylic Stick-On Shower Screen is a DIY shower screen kit that is very easy to assemble. You can install it in just a few minutes without any special tools. The screen kit comprises anodized aluminum frames, BPA-free transparent acrylic panels, stainless steel fasteners, and silicone rubber seals. It is a perfect fit for any bathroom decor, whether you have a modern or traditional style bathroom. The SQUID Acrylic Stick-On Shower Screen's sleek design and silhouette blend effortlessly with your shower space."
"Our design team has created the shower screen that is not only functional but also easy to install. We understand that sometimes, the simplest solutions can make a significant impact. That's why we simplified the installation process by eliminating the need to drill holes in the wall or tiles. The anodized aluminum frame is attached to the wall with specially formulated adhesive tape, which is both super strong and easy to remove without damaging the wall. The transparent panels are slotted and locked together with just a few screws, making it a hassle-free process. And the best part is, you don't need a professional installer or specialized tools to install it. You can effortlessly transform your shower space with quick and easy installation in just a few minutes."
"We help our clients build their brands through innovative design. For this project, we collaborated closely with SQUID to develop the concept, engineered all the manufacturing parts, made numerous prototypes for testing, explored and specified CMF, created the graphic and packaging design, sourced vendors, and worked with the manufacturer to produce the final products. From product to graphic to packaging design to production, we created a cohesive approach that enhanced the user experience of the product."

This is very similar to the shower treatments I have encountered since moving to the UK, which are utterly useless. They do almost nothing to prevent water splashing everything around the tub. They also fail completely at another critical function of shower curtains/doors, which is to keep the nice warm steamy air localized.
A friend with a similar screen complained about how challenging it was to keep clean due to the awkwardness of climbing in and reaching while in the tub, lots of chemical blowback as well. The hinged version looks to solve this complaint.
You can literally throw a polyester shower curtain into a washing machine.
