Why should you choose crystal glass nail files Aveniro®?


Glass nail files treatment of nails is quality and careful.Crystal glass nail files


Owing to the manufacturing technology the grinding surface of crystal glass nail files consists of sharp spikes that are very evenly distributed on the surface. This way it is achieved that filing of nails with crystal glass nail files is gentle and considerate, yet efficient at the same time. The user does not have an uncomfortable feeling while filing. Nails are after treatment with crystal glass nail files smoother than after usage of ordinary paper of metal files, do not split and peel. Long-term usage of crystal glass nail files prevents nail chipping and contributes to overall well-being of the nails.


Glass nail files do not blunt and wear out.


Crystal glass nail filesThe grinding surface of ordinary paper or metal nail files is formed of grinding grains attached to a base. The grains tend to fall off after some time; the file gets blunt and needs to be replaced. The grinding surface of crystal glass nail files is created right out of the file body, by chemical action onto the glass surface. This way a practically unlimited lifespan of crystal glass nail files is achieved. 

 

Glass nail files are sufficiently mechanically resistant.


All crystal glass nail files from our production pass during the production through hardening process (chemical hardening), during which their mechanical resistance is significantly increased. A certificate elaborated by an accredited laboratory confirms that the mechanical resistance of hardened crystal glass nail files increases by over 100% in comparison with non-hardened samples.


Glass nail files are hygienic.


Crystal glass nail filesDue to the material features the crystal glass nail files are not porous, which means that they do absorb water and multiplication of germs does not occur. Besides that the crystal glass nail files can be disinfected, scalded out and sterilized by any means (heat, liquids like e.g. 60% ethanol, UV light). Even in aggressive conditions the properties of crystal glass nail files are not influenced, the files do not suffer from corrosion or any other negative change of their properties. Decorated crystal glass nail files should not be exposed to solvents and temperatures over 200 °C, because under such conditions the decoration might deteriorate. The qualities of the file itself are not affected.


Glass nail files are convenient for professional usage.


Two features of the crystal glass nail files are important for professional usage: firstly the excellent grinding properties of the crystal glass nail files, which guarantee quality and careful nail treatment, and secondly the feasibility of sterilization, which eliminates the risk of translation of skin and nail infections among the customers. 


Glass nail files are health-safe and ecological.


Crystal glass nail filesMaterial the crystal glass nail files are made of is flat glass of common composition, which does not contain any dangerous, deleterious or allergenic components. The health-safety of crystal glass nail files has been confirmed by a certificate elaborated in an accredited laboratory of the National Health Institute of Czech Republic. In relation to the environment glass is an inert and easily recyclable material. 



Glass nail files are multifunctional. Crystal glass nail files


Crystal glass nail files are primarily determined for filing and treatment of both natural and artificial nails (for artificial nails it is recommended to dip the file in water frequently). Crystal glass nail files can be used also for removal of callous skin in the heel or elbow area, for treatment of pets’ claws and in technical fields for gentle filing of softer materials like plastics or wood (e.g. in modeling). However the crystal glass nail files are not suitable for materials harder than glass (like e.g. metals). In any application it stands that the resulting surface is highly smooth.

Types of crystal glass nail files


Sizes of crystal glass nail files


We produce crystal glass nail files as standardized production in three different sizes:

  • small files – length 90 mm, width 10 mm, thickness 2 mm
  • medium files – length 135 mm, width 11.5 mm, thickness 2 mm or 3 mm
  • large files – length 195 mm, thickness 3 mm, width 18 mm or thickness 4 mm, width 22 mm

Crystal glass nail filesStandard types of crystal glass nail files are designed so that they are suitable for various purposes and the customer can choose according to his/her needs. Small crystal glass nail files are convenient especially for travel purposes, e.g. as an important handbag accessory. Medium crystal glass nail files are the best-seller; they are used particularly for at-home nail care. Large 3 mm thick glass nail files are favourite with professionals, because their larger size enables faster work during manicure. Large 4 mm thick glass nail files are due to their sturdiness determined mostly for pedicure treatments. Upon demand it is possible to produce crystal glass nail files of virtually arbitrary dimensions, there are only limitations resulting from technical aspects. The sizes of 115 mm and 155 mm are the often requested bespoke production.


Grinding sides of the crystal glass nail files


By default the crystal glass nail files are produced in double-sided version (i.e. the grinding surfaces are present on both sides of the file). The advantage of this design is that during manicure it is possible to turn the file in hand and use both sided of the glass nail file. The other option which is produced upon-demand are single-sided files (i.e. the grinding surface is only on one side of the file and the other side is smooth). Single-sided files are popular with professionals who use them for whole day work because due to the one smooth side they are more considerate to their hands. Single-sided files are used also for special prints (full-area photoprinting and printing of long logos).


Pointed and rounded tips of the crystal glass nail files


Small and medium files are produced as standard production either with one tip pointed and one rounded (type p, pointed) or with both tips rounded (type r, rounded). large crystal glass nail files are because of safety reasons produced only with both tips rounded. For travel purposes and for children because of higher level of safety the crystal glass nail files with both tips rounded are recommended.



Decorations of crystal glass nail files


For decoration of crystal glass nail files we use a number of different techniques so that every customer can choose according to his/her taste. Some of the techniques belong to traditional mostly hand-made methods of glass decoration; some techniques belong to recent modern technologies.

Technology of production of crystal glass nail files


The raw material for production of crystal glass nail files is flat glass, so-called float glass (sheet glass similar to window glass). Glass composition corresponds to common composition of these kinds of glass (sodium-calcium-silicate glass), and therefore it does not contain any heavy metals or other undesirable substances.

Crystal glass nail filesThe first production step is production of the grinding surface. Roughing is achieved by chemical etching (acid engraving, action of a mixture of acids onto the glass surface). The production technology is a modification of the process of glass etching that has been used in glass industry for centuries. Grinding elements are formed right out of the glass body, which contradistinguishes the crystal glass nail files significantly from any other files. Other types of files usually have the grinding grains attached to a base; in the course of time the grains tend to fall off and the file blunts. This never happens with the crystal glass nail files. At the same time due to the production by chemical reaction very evenly roughened and sharp abrasive surfaces are obtained, which gives to the grinding surface of crystal glass nail files its outstanding grinding qualities.

After production of the abrasive surface cutting of the shape of the glass nail file follows. Cutting of crystal glass nail files is carried out by the traditional hand grinding. Next step is chemical hardening, where the crystal glass nail files are subjected to action of melted potassium nitrate under high temperatures. During hardening process the sodium ions in surface layers of glass are exchanged for potassium ions, the process increases the surface tension and overall firmness and mechanical resistance of the crystal glass nail files.

Subsequently sorting and quality control are carried out; thereby the process of production of the plain crystal glass nail files is finished. According to the requests of customers most part of the production of crystal glass nail files is further decorated with some of the decoration techniques we offer. After decorations are done another quality control follows.

In production of our crystal glass nail files we accentuate top-notch quality and high-class workmanship. Majority of the manufacturing operations are performed in traditional by-hand manner that enables running quality control. Standards are stipulated for all production operations, against which the products are inspected after each operation. Moreover all products are subjected one-hundred-percent final inspection. This system guarantees outstanding quality of our crystal glass nail files.

Thus our customers are getting in their hands a top-class hand-made product.
