HOW IT WORKS
Print the graphic directly onto the glass.
UV printing can cover a whole glass panel or selected areas. Fine linework, photographic imagery and white ink can be combined for transparency, opacity and contrast. The design can be adapted to glass partitions, wall panels and other specified applications.
Glass is a smooth, non-porous material, so adhesion depends on correct cleaning, preparation, ink selection and any required protective system. Boran Reklam reviews the substrate and intended installation method before production.
PROJECT SPECIFICATION
Options for a defined brief.
The original page specifies a maximum printable area of 2,500 × 3,000 mm and glass up to 50 mm thick. It also lists tempered and laminated glass, primer options, white ink and clear/varnish effects. Final availability depends on glass type, handling requirements and the current production setup.
Artwork can be produced for one panel or a repeated programme. For large-volume or international orders, share the quantities, delivery location and schedule so pricing and logistics can be reviewed.
THE FINISH
Colour, transparency and light.
A translucent image can preserve some view through the glass; a white ink layer can make colours more opaque. For backlit features, the print and lighting should be sampled together so the image reads as intended when illuminated.
WHY UV GLASS PRINTING?
Detail with an engineered finish.
UV cured ink enables direct printing onto a prepared glass surface. Detailed artwork can be reproduced without applying a separate printed film. White ink can support designs on clear glass or increase contrast where the colour of the wall behind would affect the image.
The original page describes a special protective treatment and options for laminated constructions. Performance depends on the exact glass, print build-up, adhesive or silicone used, orientation and exposure. Confirm the intended cleaning regime and sample any construction that will be bonded or used outdoors.
OFFICES / HEALTHCARE / COMMERCIAL
Turn a partition into a designed surface.
Printed glass separators can add artwork, privacy patterns, wayfinding or brand identity to offices, hospitals and commercial buildings. A partial print can preserve openness; a denser print can create a visual screen. The original page highlights large format work and fine detail for glass partitions.
For doors, dividers and public areas, specify the suitable safety glass, visible markings, fire and cleaning requirements with the project team. The artwork and glass construction should be approved together.
KITCHEN APPLICATION
A custom image behind the worktop.
A printed glass backsplash can carry photography, patterns or a colour design across a kitchen wall. Its smooth face can simplify routine cleaning, while the chosen glass type, finish and installation detail determine where it is appropriate.
The source page mentions tempered glass for backsplashes. Heat exposure, edge details, outlets, adhesives and proximity to cooking equipment need to be checked for each project. Artwork, glass and any coating should be specified for the actual kitchen environment.
ARCHITECTURAL APPLICATIONS
Coordinate the image with the construction.
Printed glass can be considered for wall cladding, feature panels, doors, retail interiors and selected restoration projects. Where the print is bonded to a wall, some sealants or adhesives can affect a printed surface. A compatible ink and protective build-up should be specified and tested for that method of installation.
The old page also describes encapsulating artwork between glass layers with an EVA lamination process. If laminated glass is needed, the print, interlayer and fabrication process must be approved together by the glass processor for the intended use.
WHERE IT CAN WORK
From private interiors to public spaces.
Interior and retail
- Home feature walls and kitchen backsplashes
- Shopping mall and store displays
- Office partitions and glass doors
- Architectural wall panels and stair features
Special environments
- Healthcare dividers and wayfinding features
- Lift and elevator lobby panels
- Shower enclosures and wet areas
- Aquarium themed or water related graphics
Each application calls for a suitable glass construction, mounting detail and exposure assessment.

PRICING
Price depends on the full specification.
Glass printing is priced according to panel dimensions, glass type, quantities, artwork coverage and the ink build-up, including CMYK, white or clear effects. Preparation, lamination, protective treatment, cut-outs and delivery can also change the scope.
Repeat quantities may reduce the unit production cost, but the right comparison is based on the same glass and finish specification. Share your drawings or quantities to receive a project-specific quotation.
