BOSTON, MA – Artaic, a leading mosaic manufacturer renowned for its innovative use of robotic technology and design tools to create custom award-winning installations, is furthering its commitment to making the mosaic medium more accessible. In a bold move to lower costs and promote eco-friendly design, the company has reduced the price of its sustainable Sintered Glass Tile by 40% and expanded its color palette for greater design flexibility.
Crafted from 100% post-consumer recycled material -- specifically discarded car windshields --Artaic’s Sintered Glass Tile exemplifies sustainable circular design. Discarded windshields are ground into fine glass powder, oxidized to create vivid hues, pressed into tiles as small as ½ - x ½-inch, and then sintered in a furnace to produce exceptionally durable, premium glass tiles. This eco-friendly material contains zero VOCs, is non-porous and antimicrobial, and resists dust, dirt and water retention. Available in matte, opalescent and standard glossy finishes, it is ideal for high-traffic commercial floors, walls, pools and more.
“Going green shouldn’t have to cost so much green,” says Ted Acworth, founder and CEO of Artaic. “By lowering the cost of our Sintered Glass Tile, we’re making sustainable materials more accessible for designers and architects without breaking their budgets. Our expanded color palette provides even more options for creating unique mosaics, gradients, and blends that truly reflect each designer’s vision.”
This initiative underscores Artaic’s ongoing commitment to innovation, sustainability and efficiency. A standard feature in all of the brand’s custom mosaics, its proprietary “Print-to-Fit” precision technology ensures each mosaic is printed to the exact dimensions of a specific surface, using only the necessary materials for the project. This approach streamlines installation, minimizes project disruption and reduces material waste and costs. As Artaic continues to develop new technologies -- including its latest robotic model for 2025, Apollo -- it remains focused on cutting costs, increasing production speeds and reducing environmental impact.
