Overview
UK Car Glass Ltd ("UK Car Glass", "we", "our") provides windscreen replacement, repair, and ADAS calibration services for vehicles of every major make sold in the United Kingdom. To do this clearly and helpfully, our website refers to vehicle manufacturers, vehicle models, glass manufacturers, and industry-standard part-quality terms by their proper names.
This disclaimer explains how and why we use those names, and confirms that doing so does not imply any partnership, endorsement, or affiliation with the trademark holders.
1. Vehicle Manufacturer Trademarks
Vehicle manufacturer names (for example: Audi, BMW, Ford, Mercedes-Benz, Toyota, Volkswagen), model names (for example: A3, 3 Series, Focus, C-Class, Corolla, Golf), and any associated logos are the property of their respective trademark holders.
These trademark holders:
- Are not affiliated with UK Car Glass Ltd or our website.
- Do not sponsor, endorse, or approve our services, our company, or our website.
- Are not partnered with us in any commercial sense.
We use vehicle manufacturer and model names purely to indicate which vehicles our services and products are compatible with — that is, to help you identify the correct windscreen or window for your car.
This use is permitted under Section 11(2)(c) of the UK Trade Marks Act 1994, which allows third parties to use registered trademarks to indicate the intended purpose of goods or services, provided the use is in accordance with honest practices in industrial or commercial matters.
Where these names appear on our website
For complete transparency, vehicle manufacturer and model names appear in the following places:
- Page URLs (for example,
/windscreen-replacement/audi/a3/). - Page titles, headings, and body content.
- Page metadata (such as
<title>tags, meta descriptions, and Open Graph tags used for sharing on social media). - Structured data (Schema.org markup such as
VehicleandProduct, used to help search engines understand our content). - Image alt text and file names that describe vehicles in our content.
- Internal search results, filters, and navigation within our site.
In every case, the use is descriptive and identifying, never as a brand, source identifier, or endorsement claim.
2. Glass Manufacturer Trademarks
Where we refer to glass manufacturers and brands (for example: Pilkington, Saint-Gobain Sekurit, NSG, Nordglass, AGC, Fuyao), those names and logos are the property of their respective trademark holders.
We refer to these brands to:
- Identify the manufacturer of glass we may supply or fit.
- Reference industry part numbers (such as ARGIC codes) and catalogue lookups.
- Describe glass quality and origin to our customers.
These references do not imply that any glass manufacturer is partnered with, endorses, or sponsors UK Car Glass Ltd. We source glass through our supplier network on a per-job basis, and the specific manufacturer of the glass fitted may vary by availability.
3. Industry Terminology — OE, OEM, OEE
The terms OE (Original Equipment), OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer), and OEE (Original Equipment Equivalent) are industry-standard descriptive terms used throughout the automotive glass and parts industry to indicate the origin and quality grade of components.
Where we use these terms — including in our product descriptions, T&Cs, blog content, and quotes — they are used in their industry-standard descriptive sense. Their use does not imply endorsement, sponsorship, or partnership with any vehicle or component manufacturer.
For more detail on what these terms mean, see our Terms and Conditions Section 4.
4. Logos and Images
We do not use vehicle manufacturer logos in our marketing or branding materials. Where a manufacturer logo appears incidentally — for example, in a photograph of a customer vehicle on our blog or in a customer review — it is shown only as part of an authentic image of the vehicle in question, not as a claim of association.
If you believe an image on our website inappropriately uses your trademark, please contact us using the details below and we will review promptly.
5. Insurer Names
For insurance-funded windscreen work, our forms ask you to identify your insurer (for example: Aviva, Direct Line, LV, Hastings Direct). Insurer names, brand names, and logos referenced in this context are the property of their respective trademark holders, and their inclusion in our forms does not imply that any insurer endorses or is partnered with UK Car Glass Ltd. Insurance work is handled on our behalf by our partner Auto Windscreens; see our Privacy Policy Section 5.3 for more.
6. Our Own Trademarks
The name UK Car Glass, the UK Car Glass logo, and any associated branding are trademarks of UK Car Glass Ltd. The website content (including its layout, copy, and original images) is owned by UK Car Glass Ltd or licensed to us, and is protected by copyright.
You may not copy, reproduce, or commercially use our content, branding, or trademarks without our prior written permission.
