Laminated

Name: Laminated
Brand: Octoglass

Laminated glass, or triplex, consists of several glass layers bonded with a strong polymer interlayer. After a hard impact the glass may crack, but fragments stay bonded by the film and do not fly freely through the cabin. That helps reduce injury risk for the driver and passengers and keeps the window opening covered longer. A laminated construction suits not only windshields, but also side, rear, and panoramic glazing — depending on the vehicle model and project requirements.

Laminated glass benefits

Holds fragments after damageThe polymer interlayer binds glass fragments and keeps them from flying freely through the cabin.
Improves safety in a crashSafer break characteristics help reduce the risk of cuts to the face, hands, and other exposed areas.
Keeps the opening covered longerEven after damage, the glass can stay in the construction longer, protecting the cabin from the outside.
Adds noise insulationMultilayer glass helps reduce road noise and makes trips more comfortable.
Helps protect the interior from UVPolymer interlayers can reduce ultraviolet exposure, helping preserve upholstery and cabin trim color longer.
Allows additional functionsTinting, heating, decorative elements, and other project-specified functions can be integrated into a laminated construction.

Base specifications

For a typical automotive laminated glass construction, Octoglass uses the parameters below as a baseline. They are the starting point when assessing a request and selecting a multilayer construction for a specific model.

M1 glass, 2 mm thick
EVA/PVB lamination
Light transmission >85%
Weight — 10.3 kg/m²

These values describe the base configuration and do not lock the project to a single option. Depending on the order, other glass can be used — both by thickness rating, for example 1.7 mm, 1.5 mm, or 0.5 mm, and by tint characteristics, for example low-iron (extra-clear) glass.

The exact layer stack, polymer interlayer type, and finished thickness are agreed during project preparation, based on OEM glass geometry and requirements for optics, mass, and operating conditions. If needed, ionoplast lamination or chemical strengthening can be used — that is a different product, Octoguard®.

Made for a specific model

Size, shape, thickness, and multilayer composition are selected for OEM glass geometry and finished-product requirements. Octoglass manufactures automotive glass to custom parameters and supports the project from construction selection through finished product release.

Frequently asked questions

What information do you need to assess a request for this product?

Share the vehicle make, model, year, and the required glass position. Briefly describe the task and attach available inputs — we will refine the exact list for the project.

Can we discuss the task before a formal request?

Yes. Email sales@octoglass.ru or use the contacts page — the team will help clarify whether laminated automotive glass fits.

If I need a single laminated glass pane for my car, can I contact you?

In that case we recommend the Retrofit service.

Can you manufacture glass under the brand I need?

We also work with Private Label; however, you must prove that you are the full rights holder of the trademark under which the products are to be made. And yes — we cannot manufacture glass for you under the BMW brand.
