By incorporating design elements such as colors, textures, and patterns, the visual appeal of glass products can be enhanced, making them suitable for home decor, gifts, art collections, and more. Unique decorative techniques (e.g., engraving, painting) can serve as brand identifiers, boosting market competitiveness.
Certain decorative processes (e.g., coating, etching) can add functional features like anti-slip or heat insulation.
Traditional techniques (e.g., filigree inlay, enamel coloring) can reflect regional cultural characteristics, imbuing products with storytelling appeal.

Below is an introduction to decorative techniques for glass products:

Screen Printing 

Spray Coating

1.Technique: Uses eco-friendly water-based or UV paint to achieve matte, glossy, pearlescent, or crackle effects.

    1. Full coating: Uniform coverage for solid or gradient designs.
    1. Partial coating: Combines masking techniques for personalized patterns.

Applications: Cosmetic bottles, home decor glass, art ornaments.

Electroplating

1.Technique: Uses vacuum coating or ion sputtering to apply a metal layer (gold, silver, chrome, rose gold, etc.) to the glass surface.
2.Applications: Luxury packaging, trophies, high-end perfume bottles.
3.Advantages: Strong metallic finish, compatible with transparent or colored glass for mirror or matte effects; corrosion- and oxidation-resistant, extending product lifespan.

Decal Printing 

1.Technique: Uses high-temperature baking to permanently fuse printed patterns onto the glass surface.
2.Applications: Irregularly shaped wine bottles, cosmetic bottles, commemorative items.
3.Advantages: Intricate patterns, rich colors, combinable with acid etching or matte finishes; scratch-resistant, ideal for long-term use.

Frosting

2.Applications: Perfume bottles, glassware, bathroom glass, premium packaging.
Advantages: Smooth texture, enhances sophistication; can be partially frosted for contrast with transparent areas.

Heat Transfer

1.Technique: Pre-prints patterns on transfer film, then heat-presses them onto the glass surface.
2.Applications: Curved bottles, irregularly shaped cosmetic bottles, full-color pattern decoration.
3.Advantages: Detailed patterns, suitable for complex surfaces; ideal for small-batch customization.

Laser Engraving

1.Technique: Uses high-precision lasers to engrave text, patterns, or QR codes on or inside the glass.
