Diffuse Light. Enhance Privacy. Design with Depth.

Translucent glazing balances light transmission with visual privacy allowing spaces to feel bright and open while obscuring direct views. Whether used to divide offices, soften building exteriors, or add artistic expression, this glass is engineered to filter light without sacrificing design intent. At Centennial Glass, we fabricate and install custom translucent glazing solutions that deliver privacy, performance, and architectural elegance across Ottawa’s commercial sector.

Want to maintain daylight while creating subtle separation?

Light Control Meets Visual Comfort

Translucent glazing is ideal for commercial spaces that need to feel open while maintaining modesty, security, or zoning. Use it in:

  • Office partitions and conference rooms
  • Washroom enclosures and locker areas
  • Entry doors, sidelites, and interior vision panels
  • Stairwells, curtain walls, and infill systems
  • Showrooms, wellness studios, and hospitality spaces

We offer acid-etched, sandblasted, fritted, or laminated interlayer options to deliver your desired level of light diffusion and privacy.

Key Benefits

  • Soft Light Diffusion
  • Visual Privacy

Translucent glazing reduces glare and eliminates harsh shadows while still maintaining a clean, consistent glow across glass surfaces. It’s ideal for projects where visibility and privacy must coexist.

  • Full, gradient, or patterned frosting
  • Clear, low-iron, or tinted glass bases
  • Options for acid-etched or sandblasted surfaces
