Colour Protected Behind Glass
Painted glass splashbacks place the selected colour behind a smooth glass surface. They can protect the wall from everyday splashes while adding a deliberate colour feature to a kitchen, laundry, vanity or other suitable interior area.
The uninterrupted surface has no grout lines across the main panel, making it straightforward to wipe down. It can be matched closely to surrounding finishes or used as a contrasting focal point.
For the broader service and installation process, see our custom glass splashbacks.
Glass Specified for the Application
The glass type, thickness, cut-outs and clearances must suit the location. Kitchen installations also need careful planning around cooktops, power points, cabinetry and other fixtures.
Colour is applied before the finished panel is installed. Once toughened glass has been manufactured, its dimensions and cut-outs cannot be altered on site.
Painted Splashback Colours
Colour can be selected to sit quietly with the benchtop and cabinetry or to become the strongest feature in the room. Whites, greys and muted greens create a restrained finish, while saturated reds, blues or yellows make the panel more prominent.
Always make the final decision from a current physical sample. Screen settings, surrounding light and the natural tone of the glass can all change how a colour appears. If texture or privacy matters more than solid colour, compare our decorative glass designs.
Custom Panels, Edges and Cut-outs
A final measure records the finished walls, benchtops, cabinets, fixtures and every required opening. Custom manufacture can accommodate suitable power-point cut-outs, notches and exposed polished edges when these are planned before production.
- Finish the surrounding surfaces. Cabinetry, benchtops and fixed fixtures need to be in their final positions.
- Choose the colour and glass specification. Your glazier confirms the available finish and suitable product.
- Complete the final measure. Dimensions and cut-outs are recorded for manufacture.
- Fit and seal the panel. The completed splashback is installed to the agreed scope.
Painted Glass Compared with Tiles
Glass offers a continuous surface with fewer joins to maintain, while tiles offer their own texture, pattern and repair options. The right choice depends on the room, budget and finish you prefer. A measure and quote lets you compare the installed result rather than the material alone.
