Introducing Delta Matte Textured Glass: A Smoother, More Refined Finish
GGI now stocks Delta Matte textured glass, replacing the previously offered sandblasted Delta Frost pattern.
Delta Matte features an acid-etched satin finish that provides a smoother, more uniform surface than the grainier sandblasted finish of Delta Frost. The less porous surface is more resistant to staining and cutting oil residue, making it easier to fabricate, clean and maintain.
Product Details:
Pattern: Delta Matte
Finish: Acid-etched satin
Thickness: 5/32"
Sheet size: 63" x 63"
Availability: Stocked domestically
More Glass Options. One Convenient Delivery.
Glass fabricators, wholesalers and OEMs can combine Delta Matte with float glass, mirror, laminated glass, fire-rated glass and other specialty products in mixed full- or half-truckload shipments from GGI.

Designing With Linear Textured Glass: A Balance of Light, Privacy and Style
Not all textured glass delivers the same visual effect. The depth, spacing and clarity of a pattern influence how light moves through a space and how much privacy it provides.
GGI`s Flutes LN Low Iron textured pattern glass combines a contemporary linear design with an ultra-clear, low-iron substrate, creating visual interest without sacrificing natural light.
What makes Flutes LN Low Iron different?
• 92% visible light transmission allows natural light to flow between spaces
• Low iron for truest color rendering
• Medium to high visual privacy gently obscures views without completely closing off a space
• 6mm-wide flutes with a pattern depth of 1.0 to 1.2mm create clean, closely spaced vertical lines and subtle dimensional effects
• Versatile fabrication options include tempering, laminating, insulating and back-painting.
For architects and interior designers, Flutes LN Low Iron offers design flexibility across office partitions, glass doors, shower enclosures, cabinetry, decorative panels and hospitality interiors.
Whether the goal is to define spaces, introduce architectural texture or balance privacy with daylighting, the glass pattern itself becomes an integral part of the design.
