UV Print on Glass

Yes. Glastrix prints on 4 mm, 6 mm, and 10 mm safety glass — the same grades used in structural installations, shower enclosures, and large-format wall art. The UV ink cures directly into the surface regardless of glass thickness.

One piece. There is no setup fee and no minimum run. You pay per piece, whether you order 1 or 1,000.

Yes. All orders ship white-label from Berlin within 48 hours of file approval — directly to your customers under your label if needed. EU-wide, no customs friction.

UV ink cures permanently into the glass surface — it cannot peel, bubble, or be lifted. Vinyl wrap is a film applied on top of glass that degrades under UV exposure, heat, and cleaning chemicals. For kitchen splashbacks, bathrooms, or any high-moisture surface, UV direct print outlasts vinyl by years with zero maintenance.

High-resolution PDF or PNG at 300 dpi minimum. Glastrix reviews every file before printing and will flag any resolution issues before the job goes to press.

Every Glastrix print carries a 5-year guarantee. UV ink is cured into the glass surface, not applied as a film — it will not peel, bubble, or delaminate. The print is scratch-resistant and suitable for both interior and exterior applications.

Yes. UV ink is permanently water- and chemical-resistant. UV-printed glass splashbacks are suitable for kitchen walls, shower enclosures, and commercial kitchens — the material meets standard hygiene requirements for food service environments.

Front printing places the design on the viewing side of the glass. Reverse printing places the design behind the panel, viewed through it — adding perceived depth and protecting the print from physical contact. For reception desks, partitions, and double-sided installations, reverse print is the recommended approach.

Yes. ESG must be thermally tempered before printing. Post-processing after the print run — cutting, grinding, or drilling — is not possible without shattering the glass. All dimensions and cutouts must be finalised before file approval.

Yes. Glastrix offers a free test print in your own artwork and material — one piece before the final order. There is no minimum quantity: single pieces and short runs are produced at the same unit price as larger orders.

Printed glass tiles create seamless surfaces with no grout joints — eliminating the moisture and mould risk that grout lines introduce in kitchens and bathrooms. With reverse printing, the UV ink sits behind the glass and creates a visual depth effect that no ceramic material can replicate. One continuous glass panel covers a full splashback or shower wall without interruption.

For large-format glass surfaces — wall or ceiling panels from one square metre — 150 dpi at final output size is sufficient. Surfaces viewed close-up, such as kitchen splashbacks at eye level or reception counters, should be planned at 300 dpi to keep fine details and typography razor-sharp.

Yes — before file approval. Whether you use point holders, U-profiles, clamping profiles, or full-surface adhesive mounting, the installation method affects glass thickness, motif margin, and depth. ESG cannot be cut or drilled after tempering and printing — millimetre deviations can require complete re-production.

Yes, for sensitive colours. UV print on glass is highly reproducible, but corporate colours, skin tones, or coordinated interior colour concepts should be approved via a free test print before series production begins. Glastrix offers this at no charge — it eliminates colour deviation risk entirely.
