The automotive exterior is one of the first things consumers see. Out of the exterior, car glass covers almost 30%, and the market trend shows that this number is increasing.
As a design accent visible from the outside or as privacy glass on car windows to hide the interior of a vehicle from the outside world, car glass in the automotive industry becomes one of the essential items which affects the entire design. S-LEC™ PVB interlayer film for laminated glass provides various colours and gradients which support harmonizing the entire car exterior and interior design.
We believe that once a design has been created for the car windows, it is important to visualize the design glass in the vehicle concept. Our VR tool supports visualizing the image of equipping a car with our S-LEC™ Colour Film to see how it looks like to adopt different colour interlayers to the glazing.
SEKISUI S-LEC offers a wide range of colours in PVB interlayer film. The advantage is the pure and natural appearance of the glass tints for coloured laminated glass, which you can explore through our colour glass collection. The colour glass collection includes gradients, dark colours, and light colours.

S-LEC™ Colour PVB Interlayer Films in dark colours offer solutions ranging from 35% to 2% visible light transmission with several hues. In addition to reducing glare, the PVB interlayer cuts ultraviolet (UV) rays. The sound acoustic function contributes to the comfort inside the car; the solar control function can further enhance it, cutting infrared rays to prevent dramatic temperature increases inside the vehicle on sunny days.
Another significant advantage is the ability to increase the power efficiency of electric vehicles, which are becoming increasingly in demand.
S-LEC™ wide gradation film protects the driver’s eyes from the sun reflecting on the top of the windshield by adjusting the light transmittance.
S-LEC™ Wide Gradient Film has a lineup of multiple types of designs with different gradation widths and visible light transmittance of the colour portion. The appropriate combination of products can be selected according to the desired design. Customization of design is also possible based on inquiry.
Privacy glass is widely demanded by consumers around the world for its ability to add a sense of luxury to the glass while protecting the privacy of vehicle interiors.
Our Dark Colours come in a wide range of colours and transmittance, including functions such as sound insulation.
Dark colours can especially be used for privacy glass or tinted windows for cars. These colours help to block out light and heat from outside. They support the private driving experience. SEKISUI S-LEC has a broad lineup of expressive privacy colours with various visible light transmittances that can be selected according to the intended design.
S-LEC™ Wide Gradient Film provides advanced design for the rear glass window.
Continuous gradation is also possible using from the windshield to the roof and rear glass. The gradation from front to back gives the car a futuristic image.
Harmonizing colour is important when combining multiple glazed areas in a vehicle. The same colour grade on S-LEC™ Wide Gradient Film and S-LEC™ Colour Film can be used to unify the design of the windshield, roof, and rear glass window.
Customized designs are also available through the joint development of automotive glass. Please contact us about the glass colour appearance and design you seek.
Bronze privacy is an alternative view to the common option of grey privacy glass for more design freedom.
The subdued, deep bronze colour has a gentle hue to give a more natural appearance of the environment. In addition, the calm, deep tinted glass enhances the overall atmosphere of the car and creates a sense of design unity.
Soft light colours that slightly change the atmosphere of the car. When designing, experience the joy of colour while providing a clearer view for drivers and passengers. Light colours can change the impression of a car to create a pleasant, gentle design. We have a wide range of colours available that can be selected according to the image or design intention.
Green glass is usually used for automotive glass. Therefore, when you look at the car from the outside, the inside of the car looks greenish.
In luxurious and high-end cars there is often a specific intention from the designer for details used in the interior of the car, from the texture to the colours used. Green glass can change the appearance and the actual colours of the interior may look different from the original intention of the designer. Neutral grey has been developed to show the texture, colour, and atmosphere of the interior as intended by the designer.
Advanced automotive glass design with the Pure Blue Series.
Blue is a colour that is often associated with images of intelligence and tranquility. It is often intuitively associated with natural elements, such as water and the sky, and is a suitable colour for tinted car windows that want to express an environmentally friendly image. With more and more cars nowadays using eco-fuels such as electricity and hydrogen, it adds this clean and futuristic feel to the design of the car.
S-LEC™ film also enhances classical designs that have been loved for many years. For example, when the goal is to reduce weight without compromising the traditional atmosphere of a car’s design. By combining S-LEC™ light green PVB interlayer and chemically strengthened thin clear glass with high transparency, a colour match with the green glass can be achieved.
S-LEC™ film supports the design freedom of automotive glass.
We offer the following combinations of multiple functions into one film:
