Back-Painted Glass

Best of 2025
Back-painted glass by GGI is created using an environmentally friendly water-based paint applied to an ultra-clear, low-iron glass substrate for the truest color rendering. The paint coating can be applied to any glass thickness for interior applications. It is ideal for wall cladding since the non-porous glass surface is easy to clean and can withstand frequent cleanings without concern for degradation. Back-painted glass requires no maintenance and provides a more hygienic, sleek, and modern aesthetic for elevators, elevator banks, and other wall covering or wall cladding applications. It can include a digitally imaged design that is then back-painted to support wayfinding, art displays, branding, and more. 

The Design Process

Back-painted glass is ideal for wall cladding where modern design, hygienic surfaces, and durability are top of mind. 

Sustainability

GGI's back-painted glass is manufactured using a water-based, low-VOC paint applied to the #2 surface of the glass substrate, which can be clear, low-iron, satin-etched, or low-iron satin-etched glass. Glass with Alice® digital imaging or patterns may also be back-painted to create an opaque solution.

Pricing

Highly cost-effective versus natural stone, wood grains, and even traditional wall coverings, especially when considering the durability of the back-painted glass application.
