Frequently Asked Questions

In railway applications, the front train windscreen (cab windshield) is exposed to high wind loads, flying debris, stone impact, and sudden mechanical shocks. At AIS Glass, we supply our LamiSafe-LT laminated glass solution for trains. Laminated glass consists of two (or more) glass sheets bonded together with a plastic interlayer (such as PVB) between them. In the event of impact, rather than shattering into sharp, dangerous fragments, the pieces remain adhered to the interlayer. This helps maintain the structural integrity of the windshield, protects the driver's visibility, and aids safe evacuation if required. Because of these safety and durability advantages, laminated glazing is preferred for train windshields in our mass-transport portfolio.

AIS Glass ensures our train grade glass meets applicable national and global standards. In India, older reference standards, such as IS 2553 (Part 1):1990, cover safety glass for general / railway use. Internationally, ISO/DIS 23340, a draft standard "Railway applications - Windscreens for trains" outlines functional requirements for laminated windscreens for heavy-rail, light-rail, metros, etc. While specific train regulatory standards may vary by country or OEM, AIS works with manufacturers to ensure our laminated windshields and sidelites meet rigorous impact, optical clarity, durability, weathering, and mounting requirements as defined by these standards and by rail-system specifications.

At AIS Glass, we engineer our train-glass products, including laminated windscreens, cab side glazing, and insulated train sidelites, to withstand demanding loads. For example, the laminated windscreen (LamiSafe-LT) uses multiple glass layers plus an interlayer that prevents full penetration and controls fragmentation. The glass is also shaped and processed to handle high differential pressure (at high speeds), vibration, and mechanical shock from thrown stones or debris. Our quality programmes ensure minimal optical distortion, robust bonding, and properly calibrated edge and frame interfaces. The entire glazing assembly meets mass-transport-vehicle conditions (rail, bus) in our "Mass Transport" segment.
