Digitaly printed & toughened glass : Seristal image
Seristal image is enamelled glass printed using a digital process; direct on glass digital printing. We use recently developed ceramic printing inks to print directly on glass any motif converted into a digital image. After the print out, the glazing is toughened which allows the enamels to be cooked and gives extra mechanical strength to the glass.
