On the glass
Low-iron or standard float?
Low-iron is worth it beside white
On standard float glass the green cast is there but muted by the colour. Side by side with the same colour on low-iron, the float version is slightly cooler and greener; on its own, most people do not notice. Low-iron is worth the premium when the kitchen is otherwise white or cream, or the splashback meets a white worktop where the shift will show; against timber or dark units, standard float is fine.
How a painted splashback is made
6mm glass, toughened for the heat behind a hob, with the sockets and the hob notch cut before toughening, then painted on the back so the colour sits behind a glass surface that wipes clean. The colour you see is the paint through the glass, which is why the base glass matters and why the surface is always gloss.

Straight answers
RAL 1019 questions
Does RAL 1019 Grey beige need low-iron glass?
Not necessarily. Grey beige is a mid-tone, so the green cast of standard float is muted; you will see the difference beside the same colour on low-iron, but rarely on its own. Choose low-iron if the splashback sits against a white kitchen.
Will RAL 1019 on my screen match the glass?
No. RAL 1019 is defined by a painted chip, the swatch on this page is a published sRGB approximation of it, and your screen renders that in its own way. Lacquered glass also reads glossier and a little cooler than a paint chart. Use the swatch to shortlist, and settle the colour with a physical sample in your own kitchen light.
Does Grey beige cost more than another colour?
No. A back-painted splashback is priced by its glass type (standard or low-iron), thickness and size, and the colour is not a price line. The cost page shows the usual sizes priced with RAL 1019 carried across.
