Digitally printed glass offers vast design flexibility, supporting full color imagery, gradients, patterns, branding elements, and artistic compositions with high resolution and detailed designs. The ceramic inks are fused into the glass during tempering, creating a permanent, durable surface ideal for bespoke design. This precision enables architects to express identity, culture, and storytelling through the façade itself.
South Star extends digital printing into complex geometries by producing curved digitally printed glass, available monolithically, laminated, or combined with BIPV for energy generating façades. This allows designers to merge aesthetics, performance, and sustainability in a single integrated solution.
Engineered for demanding outdoor environments, the glass withstands UV exposure, weathering, and abrasion, delivering extreme durability and maintaining color integrity. The ability to print on the exterior surface supports environmental control, enabling shading, privacy, and solar control strategies directly within the artwork. The product is free of toxic heavy metals, supporting healthier, more sustainable building practices.
Digitally printed glass offers versatility in application, from façades and canopies to balustrades and interior features. The smooth ceramic surface ensures ease of cleaning and maintenance, while pattern based designs can be optimized to reduce bird collision, supporting ecological safety. Combined with long service life and efficient production, the solution remains cost effective for both small and large scale projects.
South Star reinforces long term confidence with a 10 year warranty on color performance, ensuring lasting vibrancy and architectural value.
