Revolutionise High-Rise Building Branding & Save Big on Installation Costs!
Tired of sky-high installation bills for your high-rise building branding?Branding large glass facades on high-rise buildings and accessing difficult-to-reach panels at significant heights on tall buildings is now simpler with reverse-pasteable glass film prints. Instead of installing films from the building's exterior, you can apply them from the inside of each floor to drastically reduce installation costs.These specialised films feature adhesive on the front (printed) face, allowing for interior application and eliminating the need for expensive climbing equipment or external access to reach high-altitude glass surfaces. This enables you to brand your custom design, artwork, or images on the glass partitions of your workspace high-rise building without having to foot a very heavy bill for the same.
The High-Rise Challenge Solved: Say Goodbye to Expensive Scaffolding!
The glass facades of modern buildings offer prime real estate for offices within, to advertise products, showcase brand colours, or display corporate logos.However, standard glass film prints typically feature adhesive on the back (like regular stickers). And herein lies a problem. To paste these films, you need to install them from the outside of the building. And when you are working with high-rise structures and difficult-to-reach glass panels at great heights, this presents a significant installation challenge.For example, applying a sticker to a fifth-floor window would traditionally require expensive cranes or scaffolding for installers to access the glass panel from outside the building. Such a logistical hurdle can make the installation of the total project prohibitively expensive.To address these installation hurdles while keeping project costs manageable, Orchid Digitals has engineered a specialised "reverse-paste" film. Designed to be applied from the building's interior, this film functions similarly to parking stickers for cars, which are pasted on the inside of the car windscreen and remain readable from the outside.We apply the adhesive layer directly over the printed graphic/image on the front face of the film. This allows installers to work safely from any floor—regardless of the building's height.With the image facing outward, the final graphic remains perfectly visible to the street and passersby below. This interior application method significantly reduces branding costs by eliminating the need for expensive external access equipment, such as scaffolding (bamboo pahad) or cranes.
Preserve the Luxury Look: Reverse Printing for Indoor Partitions
Reverse printable films offer an additional application, even in indoor office settings where high-rise or hard-to-reach components aren't a concern. Clients often use them to preserve the glossy, glassy finish of partitions.When you place a print on a glass panel, the viewer sees the film's matte finish, which completely covers the glossy surface beneath. However, if the same film is applied to the back of the glass and viewed from the front, it creates a reverse-printed glass effect.This allows the visual to be seen through the glass layer. In addition to your communication, the viewer also sees the glass pane's shiny, glossy finish, which contributes to a luxurious look for your workspace.
Choose Your Ideal Privacy Level: Three Film Variants
Orchid Digitals provides three different variants for reverse-pasteable glass film prints, allowing clients to select the best fit for their needs:For all three variants, the adhesive is applied on the front face of the print, layered directly over the printed image. This allows the installer to paste the film from the inside of a glass panel while standing safely inside the building. While the application method remains consistent, each film type offers a different level of transparency for the glass surface.
Transparent Reverse-pasteable Glass Film Prints: Transparent films provide complete visibility, allowing individuals on both sides of a glass pane to see through clearly. People outside the building can see into the room, and similarly, those inside can easily view the exterior. Use transparent films to brand the glass fronts of showrooms and retail malls. They enable you to show ads on your partitions while maintaining full visibility on your interiors for passersby on the road outside.
Frosted Reverse-pasteable Glass Film Prints: Frosted films deliver a sophisticated, smoked look that provides dual-sided privacy for glass panels. This effect ensures that individuals both inside and outside the building cannot see through the partition. Despite obscuring the view, these films remain translucent, allowing natural light to pass through the glass pane without diminishing the room's overall brightness. These films are an ideal choice when you need to safeguard office privacy or achieve a premium, dusky look for glass partitions while maintaining an airy, well-lit environment.
Opaque Reverse-pasteable Glass Film Prints: Opaque film prints make the glass panel completely opaque, as the name indicates. They are essential for preserving the privacy of those inside the workspace. Neither the people inside nor those outside can see through the glass. Opaque films also block harsh external light and help reduce interior temperatures by minimising sun glare. Use opaque glass film prints to brand office glass panels, especially in sensitive work environments where privacy is crucial. For example, they are suitable for use in beauty parlours to shield clients from prying eyes.
Unmatched Quality & Vibrant Colours: The Orchid Digitals Printing Advantage
Wide Format Inkjet Printing
The design file or artwork you provide is printed on these large-sized rolls using our wide-format inkjet printers. These industrial-grade machines produce your images at very high resolution with vivid colours, ensuring every fine detail is accurately reproduced.
Double Strike Printing: Exclusive to Orchid Digitals for Vibrant Transparent Prints
Regular prints look excellent on white opaque vinyl because the white base fully reflects all of the colours in the printed image back to you. However, both transparent and frosted films need a different approach.Since frosted and transparent films allow light to pass through from both sides of the glass partition, applying a standard single-pass print can make the image appear dull or faded when viewed front-on, with light shining through from behind. In some cases, the image becomes so faint that details are barely visible. To address this, Orchid Digitals recommends double-strike or double-pass printing, also known as overprinting in the printing industry.How Double Strike Printing Works:Most print jobs are completed with a single pass. In double pass, or double strike printing, the inkjet printer’s head passes twice over the same area—first depositing a layer of ink to form the image and then a second layer of ink on top of the original image already printed. This means we essentially print the same image twice, hence the word double-pass or double-strike. This process is also known as overprinting in the print industry and is reminiscent of how we learned to write and overwrite in our cursive writing books as children, drawing and redrawing the same lines to create running letters.The Benefit: Enhanced VibrancyThe extra ink deposition leads to a slight over-saturation of colours, resulting in a remarkably vibrant-looking image on the frosted film. We employ this technique to account for light passing through the print once it's installed—in essence, "over-correcting" for the film's translucency. And it is this meticulous attention to detail that ensures perfection in every job executed by Orchid Digitals.
Media Roll Widths to Reproduce Large-Sized Graphics
When filming large glass facades, the graphics must be very large to fully cover them. Most glass partitions in offices are 8–10 feet high when measured from the floor to the ceiling. The width of the partition is determined by the room they cover.To enable large-format printing, we stock rolls of reverse-pastable film media in three, four, and five-foot widths. Since these rolls are 100s of meters long, your graphic print can be any desired length. For print jobs wider than five feet, the image is split into vertical tiles during printing. While pasting the film onto the glass panel, these vertical tiles are reassembled and fixed side by side to create a cohesive whole image.
Applications: Where Reverse Pasteable Films Shine
The primary use of reverse-pasteable glass film prints is to lower installation costs when applying these films to the exterior glass partitions of tall buildings. This is especially beneficial when accessing the outside of the building is challenging or costly, requiring the use of cranes or bamboo scaffolding.Another use case of reverse-pasteable films, not just on the outside of a building but even in the interiors of an office, is when the client wants to preserve the glossy shiny look of their glass partition even after pasting the print.Consider using this solution for the following:
Showroom windows
Supermarket front panels
Building facades of high-rises
Partitions of office cabins
Workshops or cafes with a serving counter at the front and a partition panel behind which operations take place.
Simple Installation Guide: DIY Application for Professional Results
Installing a glass film print is pretty straightforward. Simply follow the steps below to ensure a flawless application:
Prepare a soapy water solution and clean the glass surface thoroughly.
Use a squeegee or a clean cloth to wipe away any lingering dust.
Reapply the soapy water spray to the cleaned glass.
Lay the print face up (printed side up) on the wet glass so the printed side becomes slightly damp.
Holding the print in place, carefully peel off the release liner to reveal the adhesive on the front of the vinyl print.
Spray the adhesive side generously with the soapy water.
Flip the print over and begin the pasting process.
Start the application from a single corner or edge.
Gently smooth the film onto the glass using a squeegee or cloth.
Steadily press out any air bubbles or wrinkles.
The soapy water allows you to reposition the film until it is perfectly aligned.
Squeegee out all remaining water from between the film and the glass.
Wipe the front of the print dry.
Allow the installation to set for a few hours; as the water evaporates, the adhesive will bond firmly.
And just like that, you have achieved a professional print application on glass! Also, here is a video of the above steps to guide you.
Important Limitation: When to Use an Alternative
When utilising reverse pastable film, the printed graphic is viewed through the glass panel, which acts as an intervening layer between the observer and the communication. Consequently, if the glass panel is tinted or dark, it becomes difficult for an external viewer to see the text or images through the dark overlay. In scenarios where a building features tinted exterior glass panels, reverse pastable films are not a viable solution. Instead, you should opt for an opaque film print applied directly to the front surface of the glass panel to ensure maximum visibility.
