Why Choose Our Custom Glassware Printing?

Durability, alignment and consistency are critical in commercial environments. At The Glass Printery, our traditional screen-printing methods and kiln-fired curing ensure your branded glassware performs in real hospitality conditions.

Unlike traditional engraving or glassware etching, screen printing allows full brand colour reproduction while still delivering long-term commercial durability through kiln firing.

Our primary supplier of glassware is Fackelmann Housewares. For more information on what products we can print on, take a look at our gallery or visit their website.

Kiln Fired Durability

All commercial prints are kiln fired so the ink fuses permanently with the glass surface.

Multi-colour artwork is aligned precisely using traditional screen and decal techniques.

03

Specialist Screen Printing

04

NZ Based Manufacturing

Designed, printed and fired in Cambridge, supplying businesses across New Zealand.

Our Glassware Printing Process

Our custom glassware is screen-printed and kiln-fired for long-term commercial durability. Each stage of production is controlled to ensure accurate colour, alignment and consistency across the entire run.

1. Artwork Confirmation

We provide digital proofing to confirm sizing, placement and colour separation before screens are prepared.

2. Preparation & Set up

Your design is exposed onto a precision screen to create a clean, accurate stencil.

3. Print Application

Glassware is printed using  direct cylinder screen printing or decal transfer methods.

4. Kiln Firing

Each piece is kiln fired so the print permanently bonds to the glass surface for commercial durability.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Screen printed glassware uses specialist inks that are kiln fired so the design permanently bonds to the glass surface. This allows full colour reproduction, fine detail and strong brand visibility. Engraved or etched glassware removes material from the surface, creating a single frosted tone. While both methods are durable, screen printing provides greater colour accuracy and consistency across larger production runs, making it ideal for branded glassware used in hospitality environments.

  • Yes. Our commercial-grade screen printed glassware is kiln fired at high temperatures so the ink becomes part of the glass surface. This ensures long-term durability in commercial dishwashers and sterilisers commonly used in bars, restaurants and breweries. For domestic or promotional runs, we also offer kiln cured options suitable for household dishwashers.

  • We can either print on client-supplied stock or source wholesale glassware through established supplier partnerships. As a custom glassware manufacturer based in New Zealand, we work closely with trusted distributors to ensure consistent quality, availability and suitability for screen printing. If supplying your own glassware, we’ll confirm compatibility before production begins.

  • We accept approved vector file formats suitable for screen printing. Artwork must meet production standards before printing can proceed.

  • Our typical MOQ is 24 units. Minimum order quantities vary depending on the type of glassware, print method and artwork complexity. Direct screen printing and multi-colour decal processes have different setup requirements, so volumes are confirmed based on your specific project. Contact us with your product details and we’ll provide clear guidance and pricing.

  • Yes. We manufacture and print personalised glassware in Cambridge and supply businesses across New Zealand. This includes custom beer glassware, wine glasses with logos, promotional glassware and specialty finishes for hospitality, events and corporate use.

  • Yes. Our production process is designed to support bulk orders and repeat runs with consistent results across multiple production cycles.
