Water jet cutting, or abrasive jet cutting can be used on glass, metals, ceramics, plastics, rubber, foam, textiles, even stone with no heat affected zone to worry about in high tensile steels. To lift large slabs of stone or heavy sheets of glass we have lifting equipment & an overhead gantry crane. This technology uses extremely high pressure to focus ordinary water through a jewel orifice into a fine stream. This stream carries powdered garnet, which can cut through almost any material. Most materials can be cut quickly and cleanly, without heat. Water jet cutter max size 3600mm x 1800mm.

Our premium glass monuments are translucent glass memorials created with kiln formed glass, 19mm to 38mm thick. The glass is heated to temperatures over 830 degrees celsius, then requiresseveral days to a week to properly cool. Each glass memorial contains a unique array of suspended air bubbles and natural textures. Your personal information and artwork are carved into the surface after cooling. These luxury monuments can also be affixed onto a granite, concrete steel or stone foundation for permanency, and are createdwith the intent of lasting thousands of years, requiring little or nomaintenance. Compared with traditional monuments made of granite & marble, glass is a more sturdy, durable and lasting architectural material. Each glass memorial will be built uniquely for the client and will glow in natural light, differentiating itself from standard monuments. Radiant, touchable, premium monuments are designed for the modern, artistic individual who defies definition. In the setting of a memorial park or cemetery they will be a glowing tribute that will stand out from traditional stone memorials.

Spectrum Art Glass has gained a solid reputation for quality craftsmanship in stained glass and leadlight manufacture. Leadlights are individual pieces of clear, coloured or textured glass cut to shape and leaded together to form a design. This type of glass can be used for domestic or commercial appliactions. Our skills enable us to replicate turn of the century panels often found in older buildings. Stained glass is hand painted and kiln fired glass which is then leaded together to form a design. This type of work is usually reserved for churches and commercial properties, but can also be used in domestic applications. We have the archive of John Ashwin and Co, dating back to 1895, with almost 1000 original cartoons. PDF's

Laminated glass is a type of safety glass that holds together when shattered. The interlayer keeps the layers of glass bonded even when broken. Laminated glass is normally used when there is a possibility of human impact or where the glass could fall if shattered. At Spectrum Art Glass we custom laminate glass not only for safety, but also for decorative purposes. We can laminate a range of different mediums for different effects: Custom translucent densities Coloured interlayers - opaque or translucent Fabricssilks Painted designs Digitally printed images Textured glass
