# Display case and cabinet glass for fixture manufacturers

Glass for retail cases, museum vitrines, and store fixtures. Low-iron so the product color stays true, polished edges on exposed joints, and a low-distortion temper so the reflection stays quiet.

## What we handle here

- **Drilling and edgework in-house** Holes, countersinks, and seamed, ground, or polished edges, finished here before the glass ships.
- **Tempering under the same roof** Cut, printed and tempered in one building, so a print revision doesn't ripple through three subcontractors.
- **Large-format CNC cutting** Shapes, notches and radii cut from your DXF or DWG on lites up to 90" × 144".
- **Ceramic frit screen printing** Borders, blackout bands, logos and legends fired into the glass during tempering. Permanent.

## FAQ

### Why low-iron for display work?

Standard clear glass carries a green cast on exposed edges and washes out product color at thickness. Low-iron reads neutral, which matters in a case with lighting.

### Can you drill for patch fittings and pulls?

Yes. Holes, notches, and countersinks are cut before tempering. Send the hardware template with the drawing.

### How flat is your tempered glass?

We can run low-distortion cycles for display work where roller wave would show in a lit reflection. Flag it on the order.
