Printed glass - colour and graphics permanently fused into the glass, not applied to its surface.
Printed glass is the ideal solution whenever glass needs to serve as a design element, whether for building facades, interior spaces, furniture, or expressing a distinctive architectural style. After printing, the glass is placed in the tempering furnace, where the ceramic inks permanently fuse with the structure of the material at temperatures above 650°C.
With printed glass, the colours do not fade, peel, or require maintenance, while its mechanical and chemical resistance is identical to that of standard tempered glass.
Applications in architecture
and interior design
Printed glass meets a wide range of requirements in projects such as:
Facades and curtain walls
Architectural branding
logos, visual identity, and custom graphics on tempered glass
Balustrades and parapets
gradients of opacity, graphic patterns, partial transparency
Glass partitions
graphics embedded in the glass structure, without additional adhesives or films
Furniture and interior design
tables, kitchen countertops, decorative panels

Frequently Asked Questions from Facade Contractors and Window and Door Manufacturers
How does ceramic printing differ from UV printing or decorative films?
UV printing and decorative films apply a layer to the glass surface that can scratch or peel over time. Ceramic printing uses anorganic ceramic frits fused into the glass at over 650°C—it is not a coating, but a homogeneous surface with the same strength as the glass itself.
Do the colors withstand prolonged sun exposure?
Yes. Anorganic pigments are completely resistant to UV radiation—the colors do not lose their intensity even after decades of direct sun exposure. The ideal solution for facades, exterior railings, and any permanently exposed glazed elements.
Can I use printed glass in the kitchen, behind the stove?
Yes. It withstands the high temperatures generated by the stove without cracking, yellowing, or emitting odors. It is hygienic, easy to clean, and durable in demanding thermal environments.
Can any type of graphic be printed?
Yes — photos, geometric patterns, textures, logos, custom graphics.
Can I order just one piece?
Yes. There are no minimum order quantities. A single piece undergoes the same manufacturing process and meets the same quality standards as a bulk order.
