Satin Patterned Glass
Smooth Acid-Etched Privacy with Soft, Diffused Light
Satin is a refined acid-etched glass with a beautifully smooth, translucent finish that obscures views while allowing soft, diffused light to fill your space.
Unlike textured patterned glass, Satin achieves its high level of privacy through a chemical etching process that is then polished for an easy-clean surface—delivering a sleek, modern look with excellent functionality.
With high visible light transmission, Satin glass is ideal for en-suites, utility rooms, interior doors, and partitions where privacy matters. Its unique optical property means objects become increasingly obscured the further they sit from the glass—providing effective concealment in most residential and commercial settings.

Why Choose Satin Patterned Glass
High Privacy, Clean Aesthetic
Satin glass softly blurs what’s behind it, preserving only general shapes and muted colour while concealing fine details. The further an object is from the glass, the more opaque it appears—making Satin an excellent choice for doorways, side panels, and room dividers where you want light without a clear line of sight.
Easy-Clean Polished Finish
Unlike standard frosted or sandblasted glass, Satin’s acid-etched surface is polished smooth after etching. This means it resists fingerprints and smudges far better than rough-textured privacy glass, and cleans easily with a simple wipe—a practical advantage in high-traffic areas like bathrooms and kitchens.
Versatile Design Application
Satin’s understated, pattern-free finish makes it one of the most design-neutral privacy glass options available. It integrates seamlessly into contemporary, minimalist, and traditional interiors alike, pairing effortlessly with any hardware, frame colour, or surrounding material.
See the Difference
Compare clear glass to Satin and see how the acid-etched finish softly dissolves the view of objects behind it while maintaining a bright, light-filled appearance. General shapes and colours remain faintly visible up close, but details are effectively concealed—and the effect increases with distance. The result is a clean, elegant privacy solution that keeps spaces feeling open and luminous without revealing what’s on the other side.
