Front Door Polycarbonate Windows


This application is the first, fully homologated, lightweight, race-like front door with sliding window in polycarbonate glazing and protective plasma surface treatment that met all performance and homologation requirements. The door's polycarbonate glazing also features a sliding rail and small moving plastic glazing with water management. Although the solution is not feasible in conventional glass, the current design is approximately 40% lighter than glass would have been. The application is a good example of using plastics to excite and better appeal to customer while enabling regulatory compliance, homologation, and mass reduction for better performance.
