Key Advantages & Benefits

• Direct-to-Film Printing: Eliminates the need for third-party PET inserts, drastically improving the final structural adhesion of the glass.
• Vibrant Color Reproduction: Absorbs ink deeply, delivering photographic quality, high-contrast images that won't blur during the heat of autoclaving.
• Custom Opacity: By adjusting the ink density or using white ink backing, designers can control the exact level of transparency and privacy.
• Fade-Resistant: The PVB polymer matrix protects the printed inks from UV degradation, ensuring long-lasting vibrancy in exterior applications.

Versatile Applications

• Custom branded corporate facades and interior partitions
• Wayfinding and permanent signage inside glass
• Photorealistic artistic glass murals and backlit ceilings
• Customized privacy screens for hospitals and hotels

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What type of ink should I use?
A: We highly recommend using flexible UV-curable inks. Hard/rigid inks can crack when the PVB stretches, and water-based inks will boil and bubble in the autoclave.
Q: Does the ink affect the safety rating of the glass?
A: Because you are printing directly onto the PVB, the adhesion to the glass is marginally lower in heavily inked areas compared to clear areas, but it still comfortably passes architectural safety glazing standards.
