FAQ - Silkscreen

Silkscreen

  • The validation of your visual is done directly during the order. A 3D preview window allows you to check your customization and get an immediate preview of the final result, which speeds up production.

    If you wish to receive a Proof (BAT) before production begins, simply specify it in the "comment" field when placing your order. Note: in this case, production will only start after the BAT is approved, which may slightly extend the processing time.

  • Screen printing is a direct printing process on glass, performed using a frame (or screen) that allows colored ink to be deposited on the surface of the glass. Engraving, on the other hand, inscribes your visual directly into the glass material, without adding ink.

    Screen printing allows for colorful visuals (see our catalog of available colors), while engraving offers a natural monochrome customization, resulting from the glass itself.

    The visual appearance between screen printing and engraving is very different. To learn more, visit our dedicated pages on glass screen printing and glass engraving, where you will also find examples of completed projects.

  • The marking area varies depending on the lens models. You can precisely view the available surface directly in our 3D customization tool by switching to 2D mode.

    For professionals, we also provide downloadable templates on each product page to ensure perfect alignment of your design.

  • No, for optimal quality, we have chosen not to use gold or silver colors. The printing is done only in the shades available in our standard color catalog. However, it is possible to print your own specific Pantone color upon request, subject to a personalized quote.

  • The screen printing production lead time depends on your project. In our online configurator, you can choose from several proposed shipping dates based on the production workload. Feel free to use this tool to accurately estimate the delivery time of your order.

  • The majority of our glass catalog is available for customization through screen printing. The type of customization offered (screen printing or engraving) is specified on each product page.

  • The minimum is specified in our 3D customization tool. If the desired quantity is less than the suggested threshold, do not hesitate to contact our sales department for a custom quote.

  • Yes, screen printing allows for reproducing complex visuals with very fine lines and high precision. The print quality mainly depends on the quality of the original file provided. A well-prepared visual will result in a sharp and faithful rendering.

  • No, in screen printing, all the glasses in the same series must have the same design. The printing relies on the use of a fixed frame, which does not allow for variations in designs within the same production. For any specific request, please do not hesitate to contact our sales department.

  • The possibility of 360° customization depends on the glass model chosen. Depending on the shape of the glass, some areas may be non-customizable. Our 3D customization tool takes these constraints into account and allows you to precisely visualize the available marking area by enabling the 2D view.

  • No, only one customization technique (engraving or screen printing) should be used for the same series of glasses. For any specific request or special project, please do not hesitate to contact our sales department.
