Eco-Etch Glass
Eco-etch glass is a glass-decorating process that involves creating a series of small cuts on the glass. These cuts appear white against the glass and can be fashioned into various patterns or images. Skyline Design’s eco-etch glass utilizes recycled aluminum oxide, achieving the look, feel, and maintenance benefits of acid-etched glass without environmental concerns. This eco-friendly approach is chemical-free and promotes material reuse. The resulting eco-etch glass surface is remarkably durable, obviating the need for additional sealants.
Etched Architectural Glass
Eco-Etch on surface 1 of prefabricated IGUs helps prevent bird strikes and comply with local bird-safe building ordinances. Exterior applications are highly durable with never a need for replacement, available in many standard patterns compliant with all state and local jurisdiction building codes. Eco-etch patterns are engraved into the glass surface, adding to the beauty while also reducing bird collisions with buildings.

The Clark-Lindsey (senior wellness facility) campus has a very extensive tree planting program on site with tags that list the names of the species, so residents have an attachment to the trees…seeing it in the field surrounded by its environment, the landscape, and the building, the effect has a timelessness to it.”
