Citroen Commercial Vehicles Windscreen Replacement

VehicleGlaze® offers windscreen replacement for Citroen Commercial Vehicles at a location of your choice, whether it be at home or work, you can be sure we can accommodate your needs, your Citroen Commercial Vehicles windscreen can be changed in approximately 30-40 minutes. We use an advanced polyurethane bonding glue which has a fast drying time of around one hour, but this can increase to two hours in freezing conditions.

All windscreens in vehicles manufactured in the last 20 years are made with laminated glass. Laminated glass is a type of safety glass that holds together when shattered. In the event of breaking your Citroen Commercial Vehicles Windscreen, it will be held in place by an interlayer, typically of polyvinyl butyral (PVB) or ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), between its two or more layers of glass. The interlayer keeps the layers of glass bonded even when broken, and its high strength prevents the Citroen Commercial Vehicles glass from breaking up into large sharp pieces. This produces a characteristic "spider web" cracking pattern when the impact is not enough to completely pierce the glass. In the case of the EVA, the thermoset EVA offers a complete bounding (cross-linking) with the material whether it is glass, polycarbonate, PET, or other types of products.

Laminated glass is normally used when there is a possibility of human impact or where the glass could fall if shattered and also for architectural applications. Skylight glazing and automobile windshields typically use laminated glass. In geographical areas requiring hurricane-resistant construction, laminated glass is often used in exterior storefronts, curtain walls, and windows.

Laminated glass is also used to increase the sound insulation rating of a window, this was first invented when diesel became popular due to louder engine noise, it significantly improves sound attenuation compared to monolithic glass panels of the same thickness. For this purpose, a special "acoustic PVB" compound is used for the interlayer. In the case of the EVA material, no additional acoustic material is required, since the EVA provides sound insulation. An additional property of laminated glass for windows is that a PVB and EVA interlayer can block essentially most ultraviolet radiation. A thermoset EVA could block up to 99.9% of all UV rays.

Citroen Commercial Vehicles Side Door Window Replacement

The side windows on your Citroen Commercial Vehicles are what's known as toughened or tempered glass, they are much stronger than the front windscreen and will withstand a higher impact before damage occurs, but due to the nature of heat-treating glass, when the windows experience an impact high enough to cause damage, the glass will shatter into many pieces. this can look very messy and may cause more stress to the owner of the vehicle than front windscreen damage, At VehicleGlaze® we are experienced in every aspect of glass replacement and Citroen Commercial Vehicles side window replacements are no exception, we have replaced just as many side windows as windscreens due to the ever-increasing level of crime in London. If  your vehicle gets broken into, one of our technicians will remove the inner door panel from the door and remove as much of the broken glass as possible from inside the door itself, this will stop any rattles when the door is being closed, many other company's around the London area fail to take action in this step and just slot the glass in from the top, this is not the correct way to complete the job. we will also give your car interior a quick hover as well and remove all the visible glass. Tempered or toughened glass is a type of safety glass processed by controlled thermal or chemical treatments to increase its strength compared with normal glass. Tempering puts the outer surfaces into compression and the interior into tension. Such stresses cause the glass, when broken, to crumble into small granular chunks instead of splintering into jagged shards as plate glass (a.k.a. annealed glass) does. The granular chunks are less likely to cause injury. As a result of its safety and strength, tempered glass is used in a variety of demanding applications, including passenger vehicle windows, shower doors, architectural glass doors and tables, refrigerator trays, mobile phone screen protectors, as a component of bulletproof glass, for diving masks, and various types of plates and cookware.

Citroen Commercial Vehicles Rear Heated Window Replacement

The heated rear window on your Citroen Commercial Vehicles is made in a similar way to the side windows on your Citroen Commercial Vehicles, its a toughened piece of glass but with antennas for radio and GPS and heated connections installed also, this is why heated rear windows are generally quite expensive compared to most other car glass, although they are fitted in the same manner as the front windscreen. Just like side windows we also remove the panel in the boot and vacuum as much glass as we can out, along with any glass that may have entered your vehicle in the boot space and rear seats.
