Which brand is BMW glass from?
2 Answers
BMW glass uses China's Fuyao Glass and Japan's AGC. Here is some extended information: 1. Logo. The B.M.W. in the BMW logo stands for Bavarian Motor Works, and the colors and combination of the logo come from the state emblem of Bavaria, where BMW is located. 2. History: BMW, Bayerische Motoren Werke AG (German: Bayerische-Motoren-Werke-AG, or BMW). BMW is one of the world's renowned automobile companies and a pioneer in the production of premium cars. Founded in 1916 and headquartered in Munich, Germany, BMW has evolved over 80 years from an aircraft engine manufacturer to an enterprise group that focuses on luxury cars and also produces globally acclaimed aircraft engines, off-road vehicles, and motorcycles, ranking among the top 20 automobile companies in the world. BMW is also translated as "Bayer" in Chinese.
When driving my own BMW, I noticed small markings in the corners of the windshield, usually from the brand Saint-Gobain, which is commonly used in European cars. BMW has several glass suppliers, including Saint-Gobain and AGC, and the choice may vary depending on the model. For example, the 5 Series I drive uses Saint-Gobain, while the X Series has used Fuyao Glass. These brands excel in heat insulation and explosion-proofing, ensuring clear visibility and safe driving. When I replaced the rear window at the dealership, they insisted on using original factory glass to match the car body. BMW chooses these partner brands for their quality and durability, avoiding issues like cracks or fogging. I also make sure to avoid scratching the glass surface when washing the car to keep it clean and prolong its lifespan.
