The process of grinding and polishing a sloped angle on the face of the edge of flat glass which results in a decorative edge appearance.

When applying colour to glass for worktops and Splash backs we can mix colours to match customer specific details or to RAL/BS codes. We also have a large quantity of swatches for customers to choose from at our office. Colour can also be incorporated into highly decorative panels to enhance the design further. All our colour coated glass is done on Low Iron glass unless requested otherwise.

Low Iron v. Float Glass

Colour coating can be applied to both Low Iron, and clear float glass. Clear float glass has an iron content that gives the glass a green tint. Low iron glass, as the name suggests, does not, therefore offering a better clarity of colour.

Cut outs in glass should be no larger than 1/3 of the total area of the glass. It is recommended to check with the sales team with regards all cut outs. The internal corners of cut outs and notches must have a radius. This radius will be dependent on the thickness of the glass.

Kitchen, Wet room and Bathroom Splash backs are becoming popular, modern and hygienic alternatives to using traditional ceramic tiles.

With the easy cleaning and non staining quality that glass naturally has, they are the perfect solution for maintainable surfaces in numerous locations. A clear non stick surface coating can be applied to aid with the ease of cleaning. Please see here for further details: http://www.ritec.co.uk

Glass is toughened to BS: 6206 Class A for Safety and Security, this is up to 5 times stronger than the equivalent thickness in standard float glass. If broken, the panel will shatter into small, blunt edged fragments which reduce the risk of personal injury.

UV Bonding is a technique that allows glass to be bonded directly to other substances including mirror, tiles, stone & metal. The technique creates a joint cured by ultra-violet light that is stronger than the materials that are joined. This is an alternative to drilling for the fixing of hinges, feet; locks etc. The optically clear adhesive used to create the bond is invisible. Coloured UV adhesives and glass can also be used to create unusual colour bleeds and designs.

For more specialised and complex shapes we can provide glass cut by a water jet machine. Subject to the complexity of the shape it may not be possible to toughen the glass. The cut will also leave the glass with a ground and sometimes rough finished edge. Please contact our office staff for further details.
