When design demands a fusion of vibrant color, sleek surfaces, and uncompromising durability, one material stands out. At ColorKote, we champion back-painted glass that has been tempered, as it offers the ultimate combination of strength and style. This versatile product transforms any space, providing a luminous, modern finish that is as tough as it is beautiful.
The process of back-painting involves applying a specialized color coating to the reverse side of the glass. This protects the color layer from scratches, wear, and UV rays, ensuring it remains vibrant and flawless indefinitely. The light refracts through the glass before hitting the color, creating a unique sense of depth that other materials simply cannot replicate.
Safety and durability are paramount in any architectural application. By using tempered glass, we increase the panel's strength by up to five times compared to standard glass. If it ever does break, it crumbles into small, dull-edged cubes rather than dangerous shards. This makes it the ideal choice for high-traffic or high-impact areas like kitchens, bathrooms, and lobbies.
Because we create each custom glass panel to your exact specifications, you can design large, seamless surfaces without the need for grout lines. This creates a clean, modern aesthetic that is incredibly easy to maintain. The non-porous surface resists stains, bacteria, and mold, making it a superior hygienic choice for any environment, from healthcare to hospitality.
From wall cladding and elevator interiors to markerboards and tabletops, the applications are nearly limitless. As every project involves custom cut glass, we can fabricate panels to fit any shape or size, complete with cutouts for outlets and fixtures. This design freedom allows architects and designers to specify a unique, high-performance surface that perfectly matches their vision.
The combination of aesthetic brilliance and robust performance makes back-painted tempered glass a premier choice for modern design. It offers a sophisticated and lasting solution that elevates any interior space.
