Household Glass ------- A functional glass material designed for home environment

By admin / Date Jun 20,2025

Household Glass is a functional glass material designed for home environment, which is widely used in home appliances, furniture, decoration and smart home systems. It combines the high light transmittance and durability of traditional glass with modern technology (such as touch, dimming, intelligent interaction, etc.) to provide modern families with beautiful, practical and innovative solutions.

The reason why Household Glass is suitable for various home scenes mainly depends on the following characteristics:

High transparency & optical performance: ensure clear display (such as home appliance screen) or enhance decorative beauty (such as glass tabletop, lamps).

Wear-resistant and scratch-resistant: tempered or specially coated to withstand friction and impact in daily use.

Multifunctional integration: touch technology, dimming film, temperature control layer, etc. can be embedded to achieve intelligent operation.

Safety and environmental protection: some products use explosion-proof glass (such as stove panel) or low-e glass (energy-saving and heat-insulating).

Design flexibility: customizable color, texture (such as frosted, gradient), shape (curved, special-shaped cutting) to adapt to different home styles.

3. Main application scenarios
(1) Home appliances

Panels & displays: Glass panels for home appliances such as refrigerators, ovens, and washing machines are both beautiful and easy to clean.

Touch interface: Glass with integrated touch technology (such as smart ovens and coffee machines) enhances the interactive experience.

Cookers & range hoods: High-temperature resistant glass (such as microcrystalline glass) is used for induction cookers and gas cooker panels.

(2) Furniture & decoration

Tabletops & cabinet doors: Tempered glass tabletops, cabinet glass doors (can be paired with LED lights to enhance the visual effect).

Partitions & walls: Glass partitions (such as shower rooms), decorative glass walls (wired glass, glazed glass).

Lamps & mirrors: Glass lampshades, smart mirrors (with integrated lighting, defogging, weather display, etc.).

(3) Smart home integration

Smart dimming glass: Controls transparency through electric current to replace curtains to protect privacy (such as bathrooms and bedrooms).

Interactive glass: voice or gesture control of home appliances (such as glass panel linkage smart home system).

Energy management: Low-E glass reduces ultraviolet/heat transfer and saves air conditioning energy.

Advantages compared with traditional materials:

Features Household glass Plastic/metal
Aesthetics Transparent, modern Easy to look cheap, easy to scratch
Durability High temperature resistance, anti-aging Easy to deform and fade
Cleaning and maintenance Stain resistance, easy to clean Easy to leave fingerprints and oil stains
Function expansion Intelligent technology can be integrated Single function

Through different processing techniques and technical treatments, household glass can present a variety of visual effects, adding a unique artistic beauty and technological atmosphere to modern home spaces. The following are the special visual effects that various types of household glass can achieve:

1. Transparency and reflection effects
Fully transparent glass effect:
Presents a completely transparent visual experience, light penetrates without hindrance, creating a pure and bright space atmosphere. High transparency can reach more than 92%, achieving a nearly "invisible" visual effect.

Highly reflective mirror effect:
The surface is specially coated to form a mirror-like high reflective property, which can fully reflect the surrounding environment and light, creating a virtual and real interlaced visual experience. The reflectivity can reach 85%-95%.

2. Translucent and hazy effect
Fog hazy effect:
Through frosting or chemical etching, the glass surface produces a uniform micro-concave and convex structure, and the light is diffusely reflected, forming a soft visual effect like mist, and the light transmittance can be controlled between 30%-70%.

Water ripple light effect:
The embossing process is used to form regular water ripples on the glass surface. When light passes through, it will produce a shimmering dynamic light and shadow effect, just like the natural light spots of sunlight shining on the water surface.

Ice flower crystal effect:
The special acid etching process forms crystal lines similar to ice flowers on the glass surface, which presents a crystal clear visual effect under light, just like frost on a winter window.

3. Dynamic and intelligent light effects
Gradual dimming effect:
Through the electric control dimming technology, the glass can achieve a smooth transition from completely transparent to atomized state within 0.1-1 seconds, and the transparency can be adjusted steplessly to create a dynamic space change effect.

Rainbow halo effect:
Nano-level optical coating technology is used to make the glass surface present colorful rainbow light under different angles of light, and a flowing color halo is produced as the viewing angle changes.

Dynamic projection effect:
Specially treated projection glass can transform ordinary images into suspended stereoscopic projections, and can achieve dynamic visual effects of touch response with the interactive system.

4. Color and texture effects
Gradual dyeing effect:
Advanced spraying technology is used to achieve a smooth transition from dark to light colors, and the gradient effect of any two colors can be customized, with a color saturation of more than 95%.

3D stereo texture:
Multi-layer laminated technology is used to form a texture pattern with a real three-dimensional sense inside the glass, and a layered three-dimensional visual effect is produced through light refraction.

Metal texture effect:
The surface is coated with a special metal film layer, presenting a metal texture such as stainless steel and bronze, while maintaining the light transmittance of the glass, with a reflectivity of 60%-80%.

5. Natural bionic effect
Bionic texture effect:
The digital printing technology accurately restores the texture details of natural materials such as wood and stone, achieving a realistic bionic visual effect with a resolution of up to 1440dpi.

Dynamic water ripple effect:
The built-in LED light source and the special light guide layer can simulate the dynamic light and shadow effect of flowing water. The ripple change frequency can be adjusted to achieve a realistic water flow vision.

Starry sky light spot effect:
The glass is embedded with micro-fiber guide points, which can present starry starlight in a dark environment, and the light spot density can reach 100-200 points/square meter.

6. Special optical effects
Prism spectroscopic effect:
The surface is processed with a precision prism structure, which can decompose the incident light into a colorful spectrum and project a rainbow light band on the wall and the ground.

Holographic phantom effect:
The nano-grating technology is used to observe the suspended holographic image at a specific angle, achieving the naked eye 3D visual effect.

Infinite reflection effect:
Through multi-layer coating, a visual spectacle of infinite reflection is formed between two parallel glass surfaces, just like entering an infinitely extended optical maze.
