Their ability to reflect light, visually expand space and contribute to a sense of cleanliness and elegance makes them the perfect choice for modern and practical homes.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"592\" data-end=\"954\">Unlike traditional solutions, glass coverings offer a smooth, flawless surface without joints that retain dirt and moisture, and thanks to the possibility of custom-made, they are easily adapted to any type of kitchen.<br data-start=\"810\" data-end=\"813\" \/>In this article we guide you <strong data-start=\"838\" data-end=\"879\">step by step - from idea to installation<\/strong>, through everything you need to know before deciding on glass in the kitchen.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"142\" data-end=\"594\">1. What is kitchen glass and what is it for?<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"651\" data-end=\"946\">Kitchen glass is a special tempered glass that is placed on the wall between the lower and upper kitchen elements. Its main purpose is <strong data-start=\"792\" data-end=\"851\">protection of the wall from splashing water, grease and other impurities<\/strong> which arise during cooking, but also <strong data-start=\"886\" data-end=\"930\">adding a contemporary, elegant look<\/strong> your space.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"948\" data-end=\"1093\">Unlike tiles, glass cladding forms <strong data-start=\"997\" data-end=\"1038\">unique, smooth surface without joints<\/strong>, which makes cleaning easier and creates a minimalist look.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"948\" data-end=\"1093\">2. Advantages of kitchen glass<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1140\" data-end=\"1215\">The introduction of glass as a material for kitchen walls brings numerous advantages:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li data-start=\"1219\" data-end=\"1297\"><strong data-start=\"1221\" data-end=\"1233\">Aesthetics<\/strong> \u2013 a modern, clean and elegant look that fits any style.<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1219\" data-end=\"1297\"><strong data-start=\"1302\" data-end=\"1321\">Easy maintenance<\/strong> - no joints, simply wipe with a damp cloth or glass cleaner.<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1219\" data-end=\"1297\"><strong data-start=\"1398\" data-end=\"1411\">Resistance<\/strong> - tempered glass is resistant to high temperatures and impacts.<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1219\" data-end=\"1297\"><strong data-start=\"1476\" data-end=\"1500\">Choice of colors and designs<\/strong> - available in full colors, matte versions, with print or reflection.<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1219\" data-end=\"1297\"><strong data-start=\"1577\" data-end=\"1601\">Light reflection<\/strong> - glass visually enlarges the space, which is ideal for smaller kitchens.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2595 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.staklaris.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/modern-kitchen-with-green-quartz-counter-top-close-2024-09-06-01-20-27-utc-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Kitchen glass\" width=\"1900\" height=\"1268\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.staklaris.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/modern-kitchen-with-green-quartz-counter-top-close-2024-09-06-01-20-27-utc-scaled.jpg 1900w, https:\/\/staging.staklaris.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/modern-kitchen-with-green-quartz-counter-top-close-2024-09-06-01-20-27-utc-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/staging.staklaris.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/modern-kitchen-with-green-quartz-counter-top-close-2024-09-06-01-20-27-utc-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/staging.staklaris.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/modern-kitchen-with-green-quartz-counter-top-close-2024-09-06-01-20-27-utc-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.staklaris.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/modern-kitchen-with-green-quartz-counter-top-close-2024-09-06-01-20-27-utc-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/staging.staklaris.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/modern-kitchen-with-green-quartz-counter-top-close-2024-09-06-01-20-27-utc-18x12.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1900px) 100vw, 1900px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>3. From idea to realization: what does the process look like?<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1734\" data-end=\"1821\"><strong data-start=\"68\" data-end=\"138\">Installing kitchen glass does not have to be complicated or stressful.<\/strong> With the right contractor, the entire process can be quick, precise and completely tailored to your space and desires. Whether you are renovating the entire kitchen or just replacing the tiles, glass paneling offers a simple solution with a superior aesthetic effect.<br data-start=\"375\" data-end=\"378\" \/><strong data-start=\"378\" data-end=\"433\">Here&#039;s what the entire flow usually looks like - step by step:<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4 data-start=\"1823\" data-end=\"1861\"><strong data-start=\"1828\" data-end=\"1861\">Step 1: Idea and consultation<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p data-start=\"1862\" data-end=\"2063\">The first step is to think about <strong data-start=\"1895\" data-end=\"1927\">the style direction of your kitchen<\/strong>. Do you want colored, printed, sandblasted or glossy glass? Is contrast important to you or do you want the glass to blend in with the elements?<\/p>\n<h4 data-start=\"2234\" data-end=\"2268\"><strong data-start=\"2239\" data-end=\"2268\">Step 2: Precise measurement<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p data-start=\"2269\" data-end=\"2494\">Given that glass <strong data-start=\"2298\" data-end=\"2318\">custom-made<\/strong>, it is important to measure the space precisely. The craftsmen come to the site to determine the exact dimensions, places for sockets, switches, cables and even irregularities on the wall.<\/p>\n<h4 data-start=\"2496\" data-end=\"2540\"><strong data-start=\"2501\" data-end=\"2540\">Step 3: Selection of materials and design<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p data-start=\"2541\" data-end=\"2563\">After measuring, you choose:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li data-start=\"2566\" data-end=\"2622\"><strong data-start=\"2568\" data-end=\"2584\">Type of glass<\/strong> (hardened is mandatory for safety)<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"2566\" data-end=\"2622\"><strong data-start=\"2627\" data-end=\"2645\">Finishing<\/strong> (glossy, matte, reflective, textured)<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"2566\" data-end=\"2622\"><strong data-start=\"2690\" data-end=\"2709\">Color or print<\/strong> (monochrome, patterned glass, digital print)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4 data-start=\"2841\" data-end=\"2880\"><strong data-start=\"2846\" data-end=\"2880\">Step 4: Making custom glass<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p data-start=\"2881\" data-end=\"3134\">After the final confirmation of the design and specifications, the glass is cut and processed in the workshop. If necessary, holes for sockets are drilled, edges are processed and paint or printing is applied. The manufacturing process can take from a few days to a few weeks, depending on the complexity.<\/p>\n<h4 data-start=\"3136\" data-end=\"3162\"><strong data-start=\"3141\" data-end=\"3162\">Step 5: Installation<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p data-start=\"3163\" data-end=\"3367\">Installation takes only a few hours. The glass is carefully placed on the wall, leveled and fixed. It is important that the wall be <strong data-start=\"3277\" data-end=\"3298\">flat, clean and dry<\/strong>. After installation, the glue must dry, which usually takes up to 24 hours.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"3163\" data-end=\"3367\">4. Kitchen glass in different styles<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"3426\" data-end=\"3544\">Regardless of whether your kitchen is modern, rustic, industrial or classic, <strong data-start=\"147\" data-end=\"237\">kitchen glass can fit into any style without disrupting the design integrity<\/strong>. Thanks to the wide selection of colors, finishes and custom-made options, glass coverings are easily adapted to different environments - from minimalist interiors to warm, traditional kitchens.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3426\" data-end=\"3544\">See how glass can fit perfectly into any style of kitchen:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li data-start=\"3548\" data-end=\"3635\"><strong data-start=\"3548\" data-end=\"3570\">For modern kitchens<\/strong>: glossy glass in white, black or gray, with straight edges.<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"3548\" data-end=\"3635\"><strong data-start=\"3638\" data-end=\"3661\">For rustic styles<\/strong>: frosted glass in warm tones (beige, earth colors).<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"3548\" data-end=\"3635\"><strong data-start=\"3716\" data-end=\"3745\">For lovers of minimalism<\/strong>: plain glass without print.<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"3548\" data-end=\"3635\"><strong data-start=\"3779\" data-end=\"3804\">For dynamic spaces<\/strong>: glass with digital printing - nature, geometry, abstractions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2589 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.staklaris.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/grey-kitchen-table-top-with-electric-stove-with-a-2025-01-09-07-56-17-utc-1-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Kitchen glass in different styles\" width=\"1900\" height=\"1267\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.staklaris.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/grey-kitchen-table-top-with-electric-stove-with-a-2025-01-09-07-56-17-utc-1-scaled.jpg 1900w, https:\/\/staging.staklaris.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/grey-kitchen-table-top-with-electric-stove-with-a-2025-01-09-07-56-17-utc-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/staging.staklaris.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/grey-kitchen-table-top-with-electric-stove-with-a-2025-01-09-07-56-17-utc-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/staging.staklaris.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/grey-kitchen-table-top-with-electric-stove-with-a-2025-01-09-07-56-17-utc-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.staklaris.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/grey-kitchen-table-top-with-electric-stove-with-a-2025-01-09-07-56-17-utc-1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/staging.staklaris.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/grey-kitchen-table-top-with-electric-stove-with-a-2025-01-09-07-56-17-utc-1-18x12.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1900px) 100vw, 1900px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>5. Maintenance \u2013 quick and easy<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"82\" data-end=\"401\">One of the biggest advantages of kitchen glass is <strong data-start=\"131\" data-end=\"164\">simple and quick maintenance<\/strong>. Unlike classic ceramic tiles, glass <strong data-start=\"217\" data-end=\"270\">there are no joints that collect dirt, grease and mold<\/strong>, so hygiene is much easier to maintain. The surface is completely smooth, without joints, which allows you to wipe it in one stroke.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"403\" data-end=\"652\">In addition, <strong data-start=\"415\" data-end=\"467\">kitchen glass is resistant to moisture and bacteria<\/strong>, which makes it an ideal choice for the area where food is prepared. Due to these characteristics, glass coverings are not only aesthetically attractive, but also <strong data-start=\"615\" data-end=\"651\">extremely hygienic and long-lasting<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"654\" data-end=\"705\">All you need for daily cleaning is:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li data-start=\"4081\" data-end=\"4100\">Microfiber cloth<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"4081\" data-end=\"4100\">Glass cleaner or mild degreaser<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"4081\" data-end=\"4100\">Hot water<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"4171\" data-end=\"4285\">For more stubborn oil and food stains, gentle rubbing is enough - the surface remains shiny and clean without any effort.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"4171\" data-end=\"4285\">6. Price and cost-effectiveness<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"4323\" data-end=\"4364\">The price of custom-made kitchen glass depends on:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li data-start=\"4367\" data-end=\"4395\">Wall surfaces to be covered<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"4367\" data-end=\"4395\">Type and thickness of glass (most often 6 mm)<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"4367\" data-end=\"4395\">Whether to choose color, print or texture<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"4367\" data-end=\"4395\">Number of openings (sockets, switches)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"4516\" data-end=\"4742\">Although the initial price may seem higher than tiles, <strong data-start=\"4565\" data-end=\"4589\">it pays off in the long run<\/strong> due to its longevity, easy maintenance and luxurious appearance. Glass does not require additional investments in grouting, re-gluing or replacement of cracked tiles.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"4516\" data-end=\"4742\">Why are more and more people choosing kitchen glass?<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"4823\" data-end=\"5127\">Kitchen glass is a modern, practical and aesthetically powerful solution that completely changes the appearance of the space.
