Fabric laminated glass is decorative architectural glass solution that combines fabrics with laminated glass panels to create depth, texture, softness, and visual richness while maintaining the performance and durability of safety glass. its widely used and specified for luxury residential, hospitality, retail, and commercial projects where the designer want a warmer and more tactile decorative finish compared to standard glass surfaces.
At Tekcoglas, we supply, fabricate, and install custom fabric laminated glass panels for architectural and interior applications, with options to tailor fabric type, transparency, colour tone, and overall visual effect to suit the project requirements.
Fabric laminated glass is produced by encapsulating decorative fabric materials between layers of glass using a laminated interlayer system (PVB, SGP or resin) the fabric will become permanently embedded within the glass while remaining protected from moisture, dust and external contact.
This creates effects such as:
Fabric laminated glass is often used when a project requires decorative detail and material richness while still maintaining brightness and spatial openness.
Fabric laminated glass is typically specified for serval architectural and interior design reasons.
Unlike metal or heavily reflective finishes, fabric laminated glass introduces softness and warmth into space while still preserving the clean appearance of glass.
The embedded fabric creates visual layering and texture without relying on thicker decorative wall systems or cladding materials.
Depending on the selected fabric and transparency level, fabric laminated glass can provide varying levels of privacy while allowing natural light to pass through.
Different fabric selections can dramatically change the mood of a space, ranging from soft luxury and hospitality aesthetics to bold contemporary feature installations.
Fabric laminated glass is commonly used in:
Because the fabric is protected within the laminated build-up, the surface remains durable and easy to maintain compared to exposed fabric finishes.
Fabric Laminated glass can be customised using different fabric types, colours, and transparency levels depending on the intended interior or architectural effect.
Common design directions include:
When selecting fabric laminated glass, it is helpful to define:
If you are unsure which fabric laminated glass is suitable for your project, Tekcoglas can assist in selecting the appropriate samples and specification.
Fabric laminated glass is produced by placing a decorative fabric between multiple laters of glass together with a specialised interlayer system (PVB, SGP, Resin)
The assembly is then processed under controlled heat and pressure so that the laminate permanently bonds into a single glass panels.
Because the fabric is encapsulated within the glass:
Depending on the project requirements, the glass can also be tempered, heat strengthened, or produced as tempered laminated safety glass.
Fabric laminated glass can also be combined with:
This allows designers to create more layered and unique decorative compositions.
When specifying fabric laminated glass, it helps to confirm:
Fabric selection should be considered together with surrounding lighting and material finishes to ensure the intended visual effect is achieved.
Fabric laminated glass is typically part of a wider decorative glass strategy. For a full overview of finishes and design approaches, refer to our main hub page:
