Backsplash

11 years ago
I really love the backsplash. But I am wondering what kind of material it is and where I can find it. Thanks in advance!

    does the fabric stay in place, or have they found that it slides down between the glass at all? really lovely!

    Thank you! From what I understand, the fabric was laminated between two pieces of glass, so there must be a slight adhesive in the laminate that keeps the fabric from slipping, plus the two pieces of glass pressed together.

    The laminated backsplash likely consists of five layers: glass / interlayer / fabric / interlayer / glass; all bonded together under high heat and pressure.

    The fabric isn't going to move, it's permanently bonded in place by the interlayer.

    The interlayer typically will be either: PVB (polyvinyl butyral - same material used in automotive windshields) or EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate - often used in solar panels). Which interlayer is chosen often depends on best compatibilty with the specific fabric.

    There are other interlayer options, but with this type of product likely one of the two mentioned will be used the majority of the time.

    Thank you, Shweta! We love it, too! In this case, the architect handled the creation of this custom back-splash. To estimate pricing, we’d recommend that you contact your local glass supplier.
