Our process
The first part of our process is a discussion, with input from the customer, including details about the vehicle's make and model, as well as the specific window position. Following a consultation to determine the most suitable application, we choose the material and thickness required. A CAD model is then prepared. Next, a cut file is generated and forwarded for CNC cutting. Once the piece is precisely cut it undergoes moulding. Subsequently, it is carefully enveloped with a protective coating before being meticulously packed for dispatch.
Initiate a consultation where we meticulously review drawings, patterns or samples, providing the client with a comprehensive and detailed quote.
Generate precise drawings, intricate patterns and essential jigs required for manufacturing bespoke plastic windows.
Using our in-house CNC machine, we cut out the precise shape of the window with accuracy and precision, ensuring a perfect fit and finish.
Each piece undergoes expert bending, curving, or forming processes to craft a flawless finished product, ensuring the highest standards of quality and aesthetics.
Completed windows undergo a thorough quality assessment before being having a protective film applied, ensuring their pristine condition upon delivery.
Once checked and finalised, the completed products are promptly packed and dispatched for delivery to our valued customers.

Contact the teamAuto windscreens enhance driving safety and comfort. Heated glass windscreens have heating elements for defrosting, while heated plastic windscreens are lighter, defog quickly, and suit performance cars. Standard windscreens are made of tough laminated glass to resist shattering and protect against the elements.

Our laminated glass windscreens are not only effective in preventing fogging, but they also offer additional benefits. The microtungsten heating elements embedded within the interlayer can quickly defrost a layer of frost, ensuring clear visibility in minutes. This technology is highly efficient, similar to the systems used in certain standard road cars in colder climates.
The construction of these windscreens involves bonding two curved pieces of glass with a heat or UV-activated plastic interlayer. This interlayer can include various features, such as tinting, which blocks over 90% of ultraviolet radiation, reducing sunlight energy transmission and enhancing passenger comfort. It also helps in reducing the energy consumption for air conditioning due to its solar control properties.
These windscreens are designed to be fully compliant with road safety regulations and are WOF and RAC (Road Authority Card) approved, ensuring they meet legal standards for road use. They are custom-made and available for a wide range of vehicle models, including unique or rare cars. For racing teams, these windscreens are invaluable for maintaining clear visibility during wet races
The windscreen is constructed from polycarbonate material that has been treated with a hard coating for enhanced durability. It features integrated heating elements made of micro-tungsten, which provide the warmth necessary to prevent ice and fog build-up. Unlike traditional laminated glass, this polycarbonate windscreen is less prone to cracking or shattering. While the current product line is somewhat limited, the selection is gradually increasing to include a wider variety of vehicle models.
Our standard laminated windscreens are designed to meet road safety standards without the additional heating feature. These windscreens are composed of two layers of glass bonded with a tough polyvinyl butyral (PVB) interlayer. This construction enhances the windscreen’s integrity, making it less likely to shatter upon impact and providing an extra layer of safety.
While they may not have heating elements, these windscreens still offer significant benefits. The PVB layer filters out UV rays, protecting both passengers and the interior of the vehicle from sun damage. It also contributes to noise reduction, creating a quieter cabin environment.
We also cater to those seeking specific or hard-to-find windscreens. Whether you’re looking for a bespoke design or a rare model, our network allows us to source the right windscreen for your motor vehicle needs.
Plastic windows in cars offer practicality and weight savings. Front and door plastic windows are strong and clear, made for lighter vehicles like race cars. Rear plastic windows often have heating features to keep them clear, and both types are customisable for different vehicle models, favoured in performance vehicles.
