Our prime activity focuses on the supply and fitting of windscreens and body sideglass to main line trains, light rail trams and underground systems, 24-hours a day, 7-days a week, nationwide. As rail glass is considered a safety critical item and so specialised is the installation, that our depot inducted Glass Fitting Technicians are trained up to a superior, industry leading standard giving us a pool of the most professional people in the aftermarket glass fitting business; in addition we offer a wealth of glass-related specialist knowledge and are committed to providing our customers with 100% support, 100% of the time.

Our rail customers are assured that before any installation work is carried it is first safety risk assessed before being carried out to a strict procedure. All completed jobs are traceable and are issued with a Certificate of Conformity to the relevant Rail Group Standard and with a Safe to Return to Service Time declaration to ensure compliance with any curing times.
The latest generation of high-speed trains, which have aesthetically designed raked back bonded windscreens, presents some unique challenges for glass replacement, but PSV Glass & Glazing successfully meets these challenges with highly competent Technicians using specially developed lifting equipment and tooling.
Our ERP scheduling system will provide a portal for our rail customers to access schematic diagrams of their fleets enabling the accurate identification of glass and the electronic booking and tracking of all jobs.
