Launch of THERLITE™ heater-lined tempered glass

Launch of tempered glass glazed with heating wire

Advances in automobiles brought demands for new functions in automotive glass. For defogging the rear window, NSG licensed the technology from Saint-Gobain of France, and in 1969, began manufacturing “THERLITE™” heat-lined-installed tempered glass. Fused with electrical conductive elements for defogging, it has become a standard for car rear windows.
