Sandblasting - a sheet with frosted strips

GLASS SANDBLASTING

Sandblasting frosts the glass surface with a stream of fine abrasive. The glass still lets light through but is no longer see-through, so it provides privacy without darkening the interior. The degree of frosting can be adjusted - from a delicate, semi-translucent matt to a deep, distinct one.

We sandblast entire sheets or only selected areas using a stencil. This is how privacy strips on office glazing, ornaments on doors, logos on shop windows and zone markings are made. The background can be frosted and the pattern left clear, or the other way round.

SANDBLASTING OR SATIN

Sandblasted glass has a texture you can feel and allows any pattern. Acid-etched satin glass, such as our Perlsatin, has a smooth, uniform matt finish across the whole sheet. The choice depends on whether you need a pattern or an even surface.

SANDBLASTING AND FURTHER PROCESSING

Sandblasted glass can be tempered and laminated. A pattern sealed inside a laminate is protected from touch and dirt, while the outer surfaces stay smooth.

Frequently asked questions

  1. Can I order sandblasting with my own pattern or logo?

    Yes. Send a graphic file, ideally vector, and the dimensions of the element. We will prepare a stencil and sandblast the pattern.

  2. How should I care for sandblasted glass?

    A matt surface picks up fingerprints and grease more easily. A mild glass cleaner is enough for cleaning. If the glass will be touched often, a pattern sealed inside a laminate will work better.

  3. Can tempered glass be sandblasted?

    We sandblast before tempering, together with the other processing, so as not to weaken the tempered sheet.
