Experience rapid and efficient glass personalization through laser engraving and increase your business margins. Glass laser engraving doesn’t damage or heat up the product content.

The result is a polished, frosted or sandblasting effect.

We recommend using various techniques to achieve optimal results:

  • Utilizing wet paper, the most common method, which reduces surface temperature and prevents splinters.
  • Leveraging the halftone mode on Gravostyle™ for our LS laser tables, which prevents overheating and splintering.

Enhance your glass and crystal engraving by adding color using gilding wax, available in gold or silver, for an elegant finishing touch to your products.

 

Advantages of glass laser engraving

Glass laser engraving offers the following benefits:

  • Speed and silence: fast and quiet engraving processes, ideal for in-store personalization.
  • High precision: achieve intricate designs effortlessly with laser beams as thin as 0.1mm, ensuring precision even with complex patterns. This enables detailed work, such as precisely filling in logos and text, and even engraving photos.
  • Contactless engraving: ensure safety and the etched product integrity with contactless engraving, eliminating the need for jigs and minimizing the risk of damage.
  • Versatility: a CO2 laser source allows to engrave not only glass but also various organic materials, eliminating the need for multiple machines.

Glass mechanical engraving

The glass mechanical engraving process ensures precision without the risk of product breakage, as machine pressure is meticulously adjusted.

Engraving gel is employed to prevent glass splinters and prolong the life of tools.

The resulting engraving is characterized by a white appearance, with grooves carved by a rotating diamond tip, making it perfect for stroke fonts and unfilled logos, achieving an authentic look.

Add color to your engravings using gilding wax, available in gold or silver, and add an elegant touch to your products.

 

Advantages of a rotary glass engraver

Using a rotary glass engraver offers the following benefits:

  • Precision: achieve precise engravings with thin strokes, creating an elegant and visually pleasing result that reminds of handmade engravings.
  • Enhanced results: incorporate gilding wax for a touch of color, enhancing the overall appearance and adding an extra layer of elegance.
  • Versatility: mechanical engraving machines are capable of engraving various materials, eliminating the need for multiple machines and offering flexibility in your engraving projects.

Why choose glass engraving over other techniques

While many other glass personalization exist, glass and crystal engraving is:

  • Timeless and heat resistant. Engraving ensures enduring personalization that withstands heat without deterioration.
  • Clean and precise. Unlike techniques like sublimation or inkjet printing, engraving offers clean and precise personalization, even for small details.
  • Durable. Other techniques may be susceptible to scratches or damage from dishwashers, while engraving maintains its integrity over time.
  • An interactive experience. Offering engraving services in-store allows customers to witness the personalization process firsthand, creating magical and memorable moments that enhance their experience.
