Laminated glass, made of two pieces of glass with a plastic layer between them, filters out nearly all UV radiation without blocking visible light. It also reduces sound transmission. It is commonly used for automobile windshields and in airports, museums, sound studios, schools, greenhouses and large public arenas.

Although the laminated windshields of modern cars protect against both UVA and UVB radiation, drivers and passengers can be exposed to a significant amount of UVA radiation that passes through side and rear windows.
