Collection: Printed Kitchen Splashbacks

All of our toughened glass splashbacks for kitchens are heat resistant, therefore ideal for hobs, as per BS EN 12150, BS EN 14179 and BS EN ISO 14001:2015 standards. As kitchens are busy areas used for cooking with heat, it’s only practical for this glass to be able to withstand knocks, splashes, and high temperatures.

Without the heat resistance of toughened glass, a kitchen splashback is likely to crack, or even melt if it’s made from acrylic. Therefore we offer 6mm toughened glass for walls close to heat sources – our kitchen splashback ranges are specifically manufactured to last for a long time in such environments. 

Our glass printed splashbacks allow you to improve your décor without compromising on strength and safety. They withstand various forms of wear and tear, easy to clean and best of all hygienic!

At EGW, all of our glass splashbacks are made with 6mm thick toughened glass, making them the ideal safety glass for kitchens. We understand that you may have concerns about the practicality of a kitchen splashback behind a hob, as certain materials are not heat resistant (such as acrylic).

However, tempered glass splashbacks also known as toughened glass splashbacks are suitable for use behind hobs, as the strong glass is resilient against a variety of stresses – including heat. Toughened glass can withstand high temperatures up to at least 250°C, so you can safely place them behind gas, electric, induction hobs and above ovens.

As both our painted and printed splashbacks feature artwork behind the 6mm tempered glass, these products are just as safe for use behind hobs as any clear toughened glass splashback.

Most people prefer their kitchen splashbacks to appear seamless, without visible screws or fixtures disrupting the aesthetic. This is especially true for glass with specially printed designs. For this reason, we offer a silicone-based adhesive which can be purchased online with your glass splashback.

Of course, many customers prefer to request drill holes when installing a clear splashback as this will avoid showing any messy adhesive on the final product.

In order to get a close fit most customers prepare the wall beforehand, this can be done by sanding down any bumps, or removing old tiles before installing the new splashback.

If one of the many stunning designs we have on offer isn’t quite what you’re looking for, why not find your own high-quality digital image and request a quote for a custom printed glass splashback. Alternatively simply provide us with an ID number from a royalty free website and we’ll let you know if this image is suitable – a popular choice is Shutterstock.

Get in touch to discuss your splashback image requirements. If you aren’t sure whether the resolution of your image is high enough, you can send it to us, and we’ll advise you. It’s an excellent opportunity to truly personalise your home or business, with custom photographs, artwork, or logos.

This freedom of design ensures that you’ll find the perfect glass splashback for your kitchen – you can even match it to a printed glass wall art elsewhere in the home. We’re sure that browsing our selection of digital prints below has given you some inspiration in choosing your splashback style!

We understand that not all kitchens are the same, so EGW can gladly provide cut-outs to fit your unique kitchen layout. All you have to do is contact us to discuss a bespoke order and request a quote. You can view our guide to glass splashback cut-outs to see what can and can’t be done.

We’re happy to smooth or round edges for you with dubbed or radius corners, and cut out shapes or notches to accommodate things like electrical sockets and other kitchen fittings. Glass splashbacks can also be pre-cut to different shapes to work around cooker hoods and cupboards.

When you’re ready, simply contact us with your measurements, we’ll let you know if it’s viable to produce your custom glass splashback. Some shapes may not be practical due to the increased risk of breakage, especially if the cut-outs do not conform to the dimension restrictions specified in our guidelines.
