Production
Twice a year quality management system of Magistral is inspected by the independent auditors. We welcome our customers’ involvement to such inspections together with us.
20% of our employees are engaged in the Quality Control activities.
At least 10%Quality Control stations are incorporated into the produc-tion chain.
Quality control
Quality management system complies with ISO 9001:2008 and GOST RV 0015-002
Polished edgesWe use different types of edge polishing to produce lifted ballistic side glasses. Polished edges allow side glasses to move smoothly in door frames of the vehicle.
Sealed edgesBallistic glasses are provided with reliable edge sealing for protection against environmental impacts and for easy mounting into the body of the vehicle.
Complicated glass shapeEspecially for armoring of Toyota Land Cruiser 200 the company experts developed technology that enables to manufacture ballistic glass of any shape to fit the vehicle body perfectly.
The company products are designed for field operation in any climatic environment.
Vehicles equipped with our ballistic glass are operational in either deserts or mountains where the temperature may be near +70 °C that confirms the excellent ballistic glass performance.
This fact is proven more than once be the “Russian winter” with its temperatures lower than −50 °C.

Automotive ballistic glass
At any weatherThe fast growing direction of our activity is production of the electrical heating glazing for the wheelhouses and side lights of the civil and naval river boats and sea crafts. Electrical heating is intended to ensure visual observation at low temperatures and to protect against icing and fogging.
All products are certified according to Russian River Register and Russian Maritime Register of Shipping.
Wireless electrical heatingTo improve optical and operating performance of the heated glass units we developed absolutely wireless glass heating system. Thereby there is no more need to incorporate metal wires between glass layers to make it heated. Thanks to our technology the optical performance of such glass units was increased.
