Beyond Decoration: Sandblasting as a Strategic Lever for More Expressive, Functional, and Sustainable Glass
Glass sandblasting is not just a decorative technique. It is an advanced, versatile, and sustainable technology, capable of impacting the product, the project, and the overall value. It’s time to rediscover it for what it can truly offer to the glass industry.
This will be the focus of Michela Pezza’s official presentation at VITRUM 2025, with a talk entitled: “Beyond Decoration: Sandblasting as a Strategic Lever for More Expressive, Functional, and Sustainable Glass. Some glassworks still consider sandblasting as a technique of the past, used exclusively for decoration.
In reality, more and more industry professionals are rediscovering it as a strategic, sustainable, and indispensable tool for producing top-quality work with refined and distinctive features. Fratelli Pezza technologies tell a different story: that of a high-performing, technical sandblasting process capable of enhancing both the aesthetics and the functionality of the products on which it is applied.

Key Topics of the Talk
During her presentation, Michela Pezza will showcase case studies and real-world applications, with a focus on:
- glass for architecture and contract projects
- technical and decorative furniture
- glass elements for interior design
- packaging and luxury branding
- projects with social and inclusive purposes
A section will also be dedicated to the Fratelli Pezza Academy technical training program, which supports operators, companies, and designers through a concrete learning path on the advanced use of sandblasting, both automatic and manual.
Why Sandblasting Is a Strategic Choice
Several industrial partners have long recognized the strategic potential of sandblasting, successfully applying it in concrete, functional, and branding-related projects. Choosing sandblasting means adopting an approach that connects the world of design with industrial production, thanks to a technology that is solid, repeatable, and easy to integrate into production lines.
Michela Pezza’s talk will therefore be not just a technical presentation, but also a true reflection on the evolution of a process that is too often underestimated: a call to action for architects, designers, glass processors, and manufacturers.
