Glass working

We can produce the glass according to your wishes. We can adjust the edges of the glass, drill holes for handles, handrails, hinges or cut holes in the glass according to your needs.

We can produce glass of almost any shape.

Looking for a unique design for your interior or exterior? Check out our portfolio of digital printing, sandblasting or glass engraving.

Edge machining, cut-outs, holes

Edge machining

Polished edge – the polished edge has a glossy appearance.

Ground edge – the ground edge has a matt appearance.

Chamfered edge – this is the lowest level of edge treatment and serves as a safety edge against cuts. Only the sharp edge of the glass is machined during this process. It is not a sight edge, it is most often hidden in mouldings or frames.

Cutout

Using a diamond tool or water jet, we can prepare almost any hole in the glass on request. Whether it is cut-outs for hinges, fittings, locks or large penetrations through the glass technology.

Openings

According to your specification and drawing, we drill holes in the glass from Ø5 mm to Ø70 mm. In the case of holes larger than Ø70 mm it is already a cut-out.

Digital printing

A new opportunity to create unique and individual designs for exteriors and interiors. Any motif can be applied using digital technology with ceramic paints on glass, which is then cured in a hardening furnace.

This gives the glass the properties of safety glass(ESG or TVG according to EN 12150-1 and EN 1863-1) and at the same time the motif becomes resistant to abrasion, weather conditions and other environmental influences, the colours are stable and UV resistant.

This technology opens up a wide range of new applications in construction
and interior design. These glasses can be used for facades thanks to the colour fastness and safety of the glass, as well as in interiors, for example for partitions, kitchen tiles, shower screens, etc.

For inspiration and ease of choice, it is possible to draw on fixed motifs from the ISOTHERM “PRINTGLASS” catalogue, which
makes available on request, or the customer can supply their own motif.

Kitchens – sanitary ceramics – facades / railings – partitions / tiles

Laser matting is an alternative to the conventional sandblasting and etching process. Laser matting is characterised by its higher resistance to soiling compared to other matt surfaces. However, at the customer’s request, the laser frosted glass surface can also be provided with a protective impregnation against soiling.

Using laser technology, it is possible to create the finest graphic structures, such as lines and points, which cannot be created in a conventional way or are very difficult to produce.

Producing shades of grey is no problem with the laser, and so it is possible to apply photographs and graphics to glass without compromising their quality.

Laser surface frosting is possible on all common types of glass as well as on glass to be further processed for ESG or TVG, for example.

Such frosted glass can therefore be used for all-glass doors, facades or shower enclosures. Glass with glass layers such as mirrors, chrome or ceramics and organic coloured layers can also be processed with the laser process.

Parameters:

  • Maximum size: 1600 x 3500 mm
  • Minimum size: 200 x 300 mm
  • Glass thickness: 3-15 mm
  • Data format: ai, tif, jpg, pdf, dwg
  • Print quality: image resolution min. 300 dpi
  • Colour range: RAL, PANTONE, CMYK, according to our colour chart

Laser engraving

Laser matting is an alternative to conventional sandblasting
and etching. Laser matting is characterized by higher dirt resistance than other matte surfaces. However, at the customer’s request, the laser frosted glass surface can also be provided with a protective impregnation against soiling.

Producing shades of grey using a laser is not a problem, and so it is possible to apply photographs and graphics to glass without compromising

Sandblasting

Sandblasting is one of the processes that can be used to decorate the surface of glass. It is a technology of glass surface treatment using compressed air
with sand particles. The sand particles, when in contact with the glass, create a rough coating on the glass that mimics the look and feel of sand.

Sandblasting can be used to create lettering, patterns, decorative motifs on the surface of the glass or the glass can be frosted over the entire surface. It is recommended to paint the sandblasted surface with Signapur – a UV light-curing varnish.

Maximum dimensions of sandblasted glass

Maximum height of sandblasted glass: 1800 mm.

Maximum length of sandblasted glass: by agreement with the manufacturer.

Lacquering

Nano Shield lacquering – “easy to clean”

Nano-shield – transparent protective coating is a special protective coating for glass showers, sanitary ceramics or glazed tiles
for sanitary cells, which greatly facilitates sanitary cleaning and significantly reduces maintenance. On these extremely smooth surfaces, the droplets aggregate into large beads which, together with trapped dirt such as soap residues, run off almost without residue.

The nano-surface treatment causes a significant increase in surface smoothness, reducing the rapid build-up of limescale and other contaminants such as bacteria. This makes the surface easier to clean. This significantly saves time and costs in daily cleaning.

Paint Signapur

It is a transparent protective nano-coating cured with UV light.

Signapur has the same properties as the Nano Shield.
