❓ Your Acid Etched Glass Questions Answered
Q1: Can you acid etch both float glass and tempered glass?
Yes, we process both annealed float glass (3-19mm) and fully tempered glass. For tempered glass, we etch before tempering to avoid compromising strength.
Q2: What's your minimum order quantity for acid etched glass?
We accept orders as small as 10m² for standard grades and 50m² for custom patterns. No MOQ for prototyping – perfect for R&D projects.
Q3: How do you ensure consistent quality across large batches?
Our automated optical inspection system checks 100% of production for:
- Etch depth uniformity (±0.05mm tolerance)
- Surface roughness consistency (Ra 0.4μm ±0.1)
- Visual defect detection (cracks, scratches, uneven etching)
Q4: What's your lead time for acid etched glass?
Standard: 10 calendar days from order confirmation
Express: 5 calendar days (10% premium)
Prototype: 3 calendar days for samples (€50 setup fee refunded with first order)
Q5: Can you create custom patterns for acid etching?
Absolutely! We offer:
- Custom stencil patterns (up to 300dpi resolution)
- Graduated etching (varying depth across surface)
- Selective etching (protecting specific areas)
Q6: What payment terms do you accept?
Flexible options to suit your cash flow:
- T/T: 30% deposit, 70% before shipment
- L/C: Irrevocable at sight
- PayPal: For samples under €500
