Production technology:
A file with a ready image in Photo Editor is converted into print-ready files. By means of special digital technology the image is applied on glass directly from the file without making a screen printing. Painted glass is dried and then tempered / thermally strengthened. During the hardening process the ceramic ink is burnt in into the surface of the glass and supplementary protection is not required.
