Abstract
A vehicle glazing comprises a pane of glazing material, an absorptive coating, which absorbs radiation of wavelength greater than 400 nm (and possibly up to 100 μm), on a first surface of the pane, and a low emissivity coating on the first surface, or a second surface, of the pane. The glazing may be used as a roof glazing. The absorptive coating may comprise either a) a metal, metal alloy or material based on a metal alloy, or b) at least one layer of a dielectric material and at least one layer of a metal or metal alloy. The low emissivity coating may comprise either a) a transparent conductive oxide (and optionally a dopant material), or b) at least one metal layer and at least one dielectric layer.
