These pictures are for illustrations. We invite our customers to visit our factory and see actual glass making process but due to confidentiality of manufacturing process, we do not allow taking photos or making movies of our factory production areas. Any technical questions, we can answer to our valuable customers. We can also print logo our customers together with serial numbers. Serial numbers are a must to track glasses.
Production Process
KANAS manufactures multi-laminated ballistic and safety glass for different types of vehicle models, marine (ships and boats) and for high risk facilities such as Banks, Police Stations, Military buildings, Presidential and governmental buildings and VVIP stages/rostrums, etc.
Our ballistic glasses are manufactured in the supervision of our qualified technicians, using all raw materials from reputed international suppliers. The buying of raw materials and production process are closely supervised to gain the highest quality of glasses. KANAS Ballistic Glass comes in curve and flat and we can produce any design of your need.
It is very important to produce multi-laminated glasses as much transparent as a regular single glass and at the same time to ensure that its protection level is integrated. KANS glass has now become industry standard in its design, clarity, safety and high quality finishing
Bending to OEM Curvature
A minimum tolerance is required while bending the curve windscreens and curve door glasses. Our computerized bending furnaces gives accurate curvature with no distortion at all. There are some special techniques to follow to achieve almost no distortion in the glasses. We have done large and curved windscreens at present in use of various customers for buses and coasters.
Edge Finishing
Edge sealing plays very important role to stop the de-lamination of multi-laminated glasses. The UV rays make harmful effects for PU and PC if the edge seal is not good and properly in place. Air bubble is also formed by the passage of time if the edge sealing is not according to international standards. KANAS use American edge sealing in its production which gives high quality and durability. For low level protection glass we do not need to use polycarbonate. For higher protection levels, we use polycarbonate because in hot weather conditions if polycarbonate is not used then low thickness without polycarbonate is not able to stop the bullets. We can achieve customer requirement on thicknesses requests for specific protection levels. Glass manufacturing is based on multi-layer glass structures with various materials between the glasses. Glass constructions could be different as per threat and multi-glass total thickness requirement.
Anti-Scratch Film
KANAS always use anti-scratch film before making deliveries. It helps to protect the polycarbonate to scratch out during installation.
AUTOCLAVE
To get the best optical quality and durability you again need here a controlled operating autoclave with its software to control the laminated sandwich packages of multilayer glasses with balance heat and pressure. Process starts with de-airing the cold air inside the glass sandwich. Heat rising with air pressure must be controlled with software otherwise you will suffer air bubbles and de-lamination as well. Glass and PC must heat up and cool down equally. The extended warranty depends on this autoclave process on the glasses. Our production managers do understand and deliver right excellent jobs.
OPTICAL QUALITY
After autoclave process we go through optical tests to ensure the delivery of glasses without optical distortion. Visibility from glass surface will be thoroughly checked and that quality is achieved during the process of lamination of glass layers with PC-polycarbonate during the autoclave process. And thus during ride, passenger eyes do not see distortion or waves in the glass while sitting in an armored vehicle
DELIVERY
All BR Glasses KANAS offers, are always double-checked with the provided specifications and assessed by industry experts in our team to conclude the right product / solution fulfilling your need.

Most of the times specially the windscreen has distortion which gives very bad impact on vision. We do a lot of care while the process of lamination of the glass layers and the polycarbonate during the autoclave process, but the most important key point is to give best optical quality on the glass surface; without optical distortion and waviness. Please see our segment of Glass Manufacturing Process for more details.
