Backpainted Glass

Backpainted Glass is practical, versatile and extremely appealing from a visual point of view. It is extremely popular in modern interiors, and commercial spaces. Its long-term durability, glossy appearance and ease of installation make this type of glass a good substitute for conventional wall coverage options like tile, granite, marble or hardwood. In fact, backpainted glass is perfect for a variety of ambient designs, in both residential and corporate environments.  At Economy Glass Co. West Inc., we specialize in all forms of backpainted glass, and are sure to have the resources needed to bring your unique design concept to fruition.

What is backpainted glass?

Backpainted glass, also known as “color coated glass”, is a type of glass that is painted on one side using a durable and opaque color paint. The paint layer is uniform and usually monochrome. Bi- or multi-colored backpainted glass requires a complex painting process and has a somewhat more narrow range of applications. The glass is exposed to color on the clear side, which gives the illusion of depth and creates a glossy surface. The depth illusion of the glass depends upon its thickness. At Economy Glass, we produce backpainted glass using low-cure baked acrylic or water-based paints which create a uniform color and an environmentally-friendly product for your home or business.

Backpainted glass comes in different colors and sizes and can be employed in a variety of design products. Due to its high resistance to abrasion, it can be used in residential houses as well as in commercial buildings. Its most frequent uses include:

•         Kitchen backsplashes
•         Shelving
•         Countertops
•         Tabletops
•         Interior partitions
•         Shower walls
•         Doors
•         Bathroom vanities
•         Inserts on cabinets to match the room’s color scheme
