Toughened glass is most frequently used in the rear and side windows of vehicles. It is designed to be much stronger than standard glass. In the case of a breakage, it shatters into very small blunt pieces thereby significantly reducing risk of injury.

Pilkington Hærdet glas er et godt glasvalg, når egenskaberne ved almindeligt glas skal kombineres med øget styrke, sikkerhed eller varmebestandighed. Pilkington Hærdet glas er fremstillet ved at opvarme det tilskårne kantslebne glas og derefter afkøle det hurtigt.

Pilkington Marine uses toughened glass to give constructions high strength. Strength is further improved when lamination is added to provide security, producing glass products well suited to the marine environment.

High quality glass production starts with the float process, developed by Pilkington and now the industry standard. Automotive glass production includes pre-processing, toughening, laminating, encapsulation, extrusion and assembly, adding functionality.

Pilkington Automotive is a market leader in the development of dark tinted automotive glasses, producing two suites of glasses that provide significant benefits to privacy, solar control and overall vehicle styling. The Galaxsee glass suite is a major player in privacy glazing.

The type of glazings used in the side windows (sidelights) of cars is moving from toughened glass to laminated glass. Pilkington Automotive supplies laminated side glazing that provide increased levels of security and passenger comfort by increasing attack resistance and defence against theft.

In servicing the aftermarket, Pilkington Automotive is able both to leverage its global OE supply programmes and to utilise its flexible, short-run manufacturing expertise to produce glazings for models which are no longer current, or for which Pilkington Automotive is not the OE supplier.

Pilkington K Glass™ N er kendetegnet ved høj transmission af solenergi, fordi glasset slipper gratis energi fra solen ind, samtidig med at det giver en god varmeisolering og et behagligt indeklima.
