FORT MYERS, Fla. – MY Shower Door / D3 Glass has been named a semi-finalist in the 2022 Sterling Manufacturing Business Excellence (SMBE) Awards.

MY Shower Door / D3 Glass is the only Southwest Florida company represented in this prestigious group.

“We are honored to be named among Florida’s high-performance manufacturers,” said Bill Daubmann, President and Founder of the Fort Myers-based company. “Having been in the business for more than 30 years, manufacturing and installing over 100,000 frameless shower doors, very few companies in the U.S. have completed as many jobs and have such high ratings. We are proud to be recognized as high-performing manufacturers that help to elevate Florida’s manufacturing community.”

MY Shower Door / D3 glass has won several awards in recent years, consistently standing out because of their state-of-the-art design and quality workmanship. The company started in 2003 as a small showroom and assembly operation in Naples, Fla., later delving into manufacturing by founding D3 Glass in 2013. D3 Glass continues its explosive growth in glass fabrication and tempering, allowing the company to manufacture its own glass and expand the company brand over the past several years. The company now makes and installs frameless shower doors for nine Florida MY Shower Door locations as well as other glass shops in Florida, other products include bulletproof glass, decorative glass, wine closets, glass staircases, office partitions and other glass products.
