Sandblasted Glass | Custom Designs for Architectural and Decorative Applications

Sandblasted glass designs are fabricated using tempered glass panels and specialized blasting techniques to create custom decorative effects with precision.

Design options can range from simple borders, corner accents, and ornamental patterns to detailed graphics, company logos, brand slogans, portraits, and themed illustrations. Popular design directions include nature-inspired motifs, oceanic themes, abstract patterns, privacy panels, and custom decorative artwork.

These designs can be used to enhance glass surfaces in commercial interiors, hospitality spaces, residential bathrooms, office partitions, storefronts, entry systems, and other architectural applications.

Sandblasting Techniques

Sandblasted glass can be produced using different techniques depending on the desired visual effect.

Surface etching creates a one-dimensional opaque effect by sandblasting the surface of the glass. This is commonly used for privacy panels, simple patterns, decorative borders, and clean frosted finishes.

Surface etching and shading creates areas that gradually transition from opaque to clear glass. This technique is useful for designs that need depth, softness, or a more gradual visual effect.

Carving and shading create a more dimensional appearance by sandblasting selected areas for longer periods. This can produce sculpted effects, brighter carved edges, and a more detailed three-dimensional look within the glass design.

Glass Panel Fabrication

Sandblasted glass can be fabricated in large panel sizes for architectural and decorative projects.

Available fabrication capabilities include glass panels up to 110” x 198”, depending on the project requirements, glass type, thickness, and final design.

For projects that require custom artwork, graphics, logos, or illustrations, designs can be submitted as digital files and processed through a CAM system for production. This helps translate approved artwork into accurate glass fabrication instructions.

Diamond Seal coating may also be available to help protect sandblasted glass surfaces from fingerprints, staining, soap buildup, and everyday wear. This can be especially useful for shower doors, partitions, tabletops, and other surfaces that are touched or cleaned frequently.

Sandblasted glass is a strong choice for projects that need privacy, branding, decorative detail, or custom glass artwork.

With multiple techniques, large panel fabrication, digital artwork processing, and protective coating options, sandblasted glass can support both functional and design-driven applications.
