2. INTRODUCTION
• A windshield provides up to 45% of the
structural integrity of the automobile
• Although automotive glass looks the same as
any other type of glass, it functions in a
different way
• Automotive glass includes windshields, side &
rear windows and so on
3. KEY BENEFITS OF
AUTOMOTIVE GLASS
• Improves air-conditioner's performance due
to less heat transfer from outside.
• Even if the car is parked under the sun, they
ensure faster cooling of the cabin.
• Ensures longer life of seat covers due to
reduced heat.
4. TWO TYPES OF
SAFETY GLASS
Laminated Glass
For windshields
Tempered Glass
For side and back windows
5. LAMINATED
WINDSHIELDS
Laminated-LT
• This type of glass consists of a layer of
plastic (PVB) is sandwiched between two
sheets of float glass
• Laminated glass is used in places where the
possibility of injury during accidents is high
• It also provides strength to the car roof
6. It is safe because during an accident if the glass breaks the shards remain
stuck in the glass itself instead of shattering.
WHY IS AIS
Laminated-LT SAFE?
7. TEMPERED
GLASS
Temperlite-LT
• This type of glass is used primarily for side
window glass and rear windshield glass
• When it breaks, tempered glass shatters into
many very small pieces rather than long
sharp shards, thus protecting people from
causing injuries
• Its sturdy, thick and durable
8. Tempered glass is close to four or five times as sturdy as any other glass type,
that shatters into very small pieces if its broken on impact with blunt edges making it safer.
WHY IS AIS Temperlite-LT
SAFE?
