Madras® Satin and Textured Glass: Innovation and Design
Madras® Satin Finish Collection has revolutionized the concept of frosted glass for construction and furniture. Unlike sandblasting and painting, Madras® chemical processing permanently frosts the glass surface, offering a refined, fingerprint-resistant finish. This technology ensures uniform light diffusion and simplified maintenance, making Madras® frosted glass ideal for doors, partition walls, and other architectural applications. The
Madras® textured glass line offers a wide range of patterns inspired by the textile world, transforming glass into a material rich in charm. These textures, available in semi-transparent, transparent, and opaque finishes, give the glass a unique tactility, making it a warm and precious finish in harmony with interior spaces. Madras® fabric-like glass is particularly suitable for doors, walls, sliding systems, and wardrobes, offering aesthetic and functional solutions for contemporary interior design.
Madras® Nuvola, the gradient glass
Madras® Nuvola is a frosted glass with
gradient that gradually transitions from opacity to transparency. This characteristic gives the glass a unique visual lightness, ideal for creating modular walls, doors, shower screens, and balustrades, both indoors and outdoors. The perfectly smooth surface ensures high resistance to fingerprints and scratches, facilitating cleaning and maintenance.
Madras® Laminated Colored Glass: Chromatic Customization
Madras® glass is produced with float glass in six color variants: extra-clear, clear, bronze, gray, green, and blue. Through lamination techniques using EVA or PVB interlayers, the base color of the glass can be transformed into different shades not included in the standard range. This allows for the creation of impactful architectural and design elements, personalizing workspaces, hospitality environments, or residential spaces. Lamination also gives the glass the safety characteristics required by interior regulations.
