Why Colour Coated Glass Outshines Coloured Quartz
Transforming Resin Bound Design with Colour Coated Recycled Glass
At SureSet Resin, we redefine what’s possible in resin bound surfacing by manufacturing our own colour coated recycled glass. Designed for both performance and visual impact, our glass offers a sustainable, versatile, and highly customisable alternative to traditional coloured quartz.
Whether you're creating striking public installations or adding decorative flair to a private space, our glass aggregates provide unmatched flexibility and brilliance.
What Makes Our Recycled Glass Unique?
We start with clear, recycled glass, which is:
- Carefully tumbled for smooth, safe edges
- Professionally colour-coated using advanced techniques
- Available in almost any colour imaginable
- Offered in bespoke blends and combinations
This allows designers, contractors, and specifiers to achieve truly unique finishes that stand out.
Recycled Glass vs Coloured Quartz: Why Glass Wins
- Superior Sustainability
Unlike quarried quartz, our product is made from 100% recycled glass, reducing landfill waste and the environmental impact of extraction. It’s an ideal choice for eco-conscious projects aiming to meet sustainability targets.
- Brighter, More Vibrant Colours
Colour-coated glass delivers cleaner, brighter, and more vivid tones than coloured quartz, which can often appear muted or inconsistent due to natural variation.
- Unlimited Design Flexibility
Quartz is limited to naturally occurring shades. Our glass, on the other hand, can be:
- Matched to brand colours
- Designed into logos, patterns, and lettering
- Blended for custom gradients or artistic effects
- Consistency Across Every Batch
Because we control the coating process, you get consistent colour results every time—critical for large-scale or phased installations.
- Enhanced Visual Impact
Glass reflects light differently than quartz, offering a subtle sparkle that elevates:
- Resin bound courtyards
- Pathways and plazas
- Feature areas and focal points
