What is Heated Windshield Market?
Heated windshield is made by laying a nearly invisible web of extremely fine tungsten wires within the windshield glass. The very thin web of tungsten wire layered in the glass are heated up to raise the temperature of the surface of the glass to defrost or melt snow and ice away from the windshield. Heated windshield technologies use an electrical element to heat the window, making it easier for wipers to clear condensation without affecting visibility and leaving streaks on the windshield, this is projected the growth of the global heated windshield market in the forecast period.
