just-auto estimates the automotive glazing market for passenger car and light truck applications in Europe, North America, Japan and China was worth EUR3.7bn in 2007, with that figure having the potential to reach EUR4.4bn by 2014.

Europe tends to lead styling trends for advanced glass shapes, including panoramic windshields and large roof glazings, as well as colour tints such as blue glass. So, with design trends pointing to greater usage of glass in the future, and a growing trend toward aerodynamic design, glassmakers must be able to control the pattern of temperatures in the glass throughout the shaping process if shape, optical quality and stress patterns are to be achieved.

Vehiclemakers' needs with respect to glass are also becoming increasingly sophisticated and diversified, priority is being given to the heat resistance of the cabin, sound-proofing, upgraded glass antennae, the adoption of lighter-weight glass varieties and the encapsulation of glass.

In our fifth edition of the popular Global market review of automotive glazing systems report we discuss the latest trends and technologies in more detail, review the emerging markets, and provide forecasts showing how the replacement glass market will evolve in Europe from 2004 through to 2014.
