What is Obscure Glass?

Obscure glass, sometimes called patterned or textured glass, is non-transparent glazing that allows light through while obscuring visibility. Popularly used in bathrooms, entryways, and meeting rooms, it lets natural light flood interiors but prevents on-lookers from seeing inside.
It is available in several variations, including sandblasted (frosted), acid-etched, ribbed (reeded), bubbled, and patterned designs like Cathedral, Satinlite, and Spotswood. Importantly, obscure glass can be supplied as Grade A safety glass, meaning it’s toughened or laminated for enhanced strength and compliance
