Automotive Glass

Automotive Glass

Our automotive glass operation has the top market share in the automotive glazing industry providing laminated glass and tempered glass.
In order to serve future needs, we are committed to offering value-added automotive products including IR cut glass, water repellent door glass and glass antennas.

Basic Automotive Glass

Laminated Glass

  • Glass that provides safety and has crime prevention properties, consisting of a film laminated between two pieces of glass, which reduces scattering of fragments in the event of breakage, and makes it hard to penetrate.

Tempered Glass

  • Glass that provides safety and has strength which is increased by heating the glass and then suddenly cooling it. In the event of any breakage, the fragments are granular.

Value-added Automotive Glass

UV-cut Glass

  • Glass that cuts UV rays by over 90%, while protecting passengers from sunburn and interior materials from deterioration.

IR-cut Glass

  • Heat insulating, 2-sheet laminated glass with radio wave permeability that dramatically cuts middle infrared, the most irritating wavelength, by sandwiching a special film between two pieces of glass.
  • Heat insulating glass that reflects mainly infrared rays using a special film coating on the inner surfaces of laminated glass.

Privacy Glass

  • Glass with high heat insulation that ensures privacy by adding a colorant to glass.

Acoustic Glass

  • Glass which helps make driving a more silent experience by further increasing sound insulating properties in laminated glass.

Laminated Side Window

  • Glass with resins around the glass molded in a single unit for superior crime prevention and sound insulation properties.

Low-E Glass

  • Low-emissive coating glass to reduce energy transmission through glass in order to improve thermal comfort inside vehicle.

Water-repellent Door Glass

  • Door glass with a fluorinated coating that provides high water repellency and durability to improve visibility in wet weather.

Electro-thermal Defogging Glass

  • Rear glass with heat-generating conductive ink molded into the glass with a current that prevents fogging.

Windshields with Heated Wiper/Camera Area

  • Windshield glass with snow/ice-melting functionality due to heat-generating conductive ink molded into glass.

Heated Coated Windshields

  • Windshield glass with defog or snow/ice-melting functionality due to heat-generating coating into glass.

Heated Wire Windshields

  • Windshield glass with defog or snow/ice-melting functionality due to heat-generating wire into glass.

Printed Glass Antenna

  • Automotive antenna applied on glass by printing conductive ink on glass surface, giving it an excellent design and durability.

Embedded DTV Glass Antenna

  • DTV antenna excellent in design and durability, created by enclosing a seal-type antenna in the windshield.

Glass for Head-up Display

  • Windshields that are able to display the speedometer and other information on the glass.

Module Assembly Window

  • Glass with resins around the glass molded in a single unit.
