What is frosted glass?

We all know frosted glass, but why is it so popular? This type of glass has a distinct matte finish, allowing light to pass through while preventing visibility. In short, it’s the perfect choice if you’re after a bit more privacy without sacrificing natural light. This matte effect is created using techniques such as etching, sandblasting, or acid treatments. You might also come across it referred to as satin glass or acid glass.

Frosted glass can be used in countless ways – whether indoors or outdoors, in homes or offices. It’s versatile, practical, and adds a modern touch to any space.

Shower screens
Prefer privacy while showering? Frosted glass shields you from prying eyes while maintaining an open, bright feel. Perfect for light and fresh bathroom designs.

Partition walls
In offices, frosted glass is often the go-to for separating workspaces without making the room feel dark or confined. Glass partitions also make spaces look larger while still fostering collaboration.

Kitchen cabinets and furniture
Frosted glass is a fantastic choice for modern kitchens or living rooms. It works beautifully for cupboard doors – no clutter on display, but you still get a sleek and clean aesthetic.

Lamps and lighting: Say goodbye to blinding glare! Frosted glass is frequently used for lampshades, diffusing light into a soft glow that creates a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Steel-framed doors: A true statement piece. Steel doors fitted with frosted glass combine bold design with practicality and are perfect for industrial or minimalist interiors.

Balconies: Frosted glass balcony panels give you an extra touch of privacy while keeping things bright. Enjoy sitting outdoors without feeling entirely shut off from the world around you.
