The material in detail

UV ink doesn't easily adhere to glass โ€” it cures directly into the primed surface using a 5-colour flatbed press. The result is scratch-resistant, water-resistant, and UV-stable, with no film peeling or lamination. Glastrix prints on flat glass, safety glass (any thickness), mirrors, and back-painted glass up to 3.20 ร— 2 metres without joints. Whether you're a photographer producing iris prints on thick safety glass, a lighting company sourcing backlit panels, or a brand ordering white-label glass products shipped directly to your own customers โ€” the process is identical: no setup fee, no minimum run, printed and shipped within 48 hours of file approval and glass availability from Berlin. Every print carries a 5-year guarantee. Used by iris photographers, interior designers, hotel groups, and brand partners across Europe who need glass products delivered directly to their end customers without touching inventory.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you print on tempered or safety glass?

Yes. Glastrix prints on 4 mm, 6 mm, and 10 mm safety glass โ€” 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.

What is the minimum order for glass printing?

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

Do you ship finished glass prints across Europe?

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

How does UV print on glass compare to vinyl wrap or printed film?

UV ink cures permanently into the glass surface โ€” 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.

What file format is needed for glass printing?

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.

How durable is UV print on glass?

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

We print your product and ship it to your customer โ€” invisibly.

As a creative myself I love working with Eric at Glastrix as he thinks just like a creative and he is always looking for the best solutions and ideas for the artwork. Eric is super nice and fast when he works and I can only recommend anybody who would like to print on creative surfaces, to go to Glastrix. I already have my next project planned at Glastrix!
