Your commercial glass installation experts can give you a customized quote for adding a touch of design to your office space. Textured glass comes in an array of options, in a rainbow of colors and transparencies. It also can be used for residential glass.
Use textured glass for a variety of reasons:
Decoration
Textured glass can be customized to fit a certain theme, just like the interior glass doors in home renovations.
Privacy
Textured glass provides privacy without completely obstructing the view from outside. It also allows privacy without giving up light allowance.
Surface Covering
Textured glass reduces energy costs by reducing UV light penetration, protecting everybody indoors from UV damage.
Textured glass looks great in a variety of places:
Skylights
Textured glass can be used as a skylight’s primary glass for a decorative touch, but it allows for greater energy saving when it’s mounted as a lower pane. This is because the textured surface breaks direct sunlight, avoiding harsh light and shadowing. If the glass is also tinted, it will also add color to the room.
Office and Space Dividers
Textured glass is a great way to divide offices or meeting rooms. If your business has an open space between offices or communal areas, textured glass can give the illusion of privacy without sacrificing the flow of light between spaces.
Restrooms
Heavily textured glass is an excellent idea for dimly lit restrooms, especially as exterior windows near the sink area. You can partner the textured glass with half-curtains or blinds for extra privacy, or keep the windows high and toward the ceiling to allow light without the possibility of people trying to peep inside.
Surface Protection
Glass with one-side texture can protect the surface of tables and countertops. The glass can be permanently fixed or used as a temporary cover, both of which are easy to clean. The best type of glass for this is tempered because it has a higher tensile strength than regular glass and is more difficult to scratch.
Decoration Throughout Your Office
You can use small sections of textured glass to spruce up your office. A small piece can be hung inside a window to create a rainbow reflective effect that sprays dashes of color on walls and floors. A larger piece can block out unwanted UV rays, which will preserve the finish on furniture, carpets, and upholstery. Install textured glass for a cost-efficient want to decrease your energy cost, decrease carpet and furniture fading, and improve your office appeal. Other appealing glass options include custom mirrors, double-pane windows, and layered glass for countertops and decorative surfaces.
