This work presents a process for producing a transparent endless flat E-glass fibre reinforced composite material with a PC/PCT blend matrix. The resulting material boasts high strength and low weight, surpassing laminated glass properties. E-glass fibres are treated in an ethanol bath and spread using a novel air vibration spreader, achieving a maximum spreading degree of 3.5. The transparent portion of the heat-pressed sample reaches 96.5%, with 92.6% of the glass fibres aligned parallel to the sample surface, essential for maintaining an undisturbed beam path. The consolidated material exhibits a tensile strength of 221 MPa and a tensile modulus of 12 GPa, along with a bending strength of 309 MPa and a flexural modulus of 13 GPa. It achieves an optical transparency of 80.4%. The technical feasibility is validated through these results, indicating the realization of a competitive material. An economic analysis compares the production costs of this new process with those of laminated glass, demonstrating its economic viability. A market analysis identifies four potential applications for transparent FRPs, including automotive panes, transparent columns, aviation windows, and glass facades in construction. The analysis highlights that the introduction of transparent FRP as vehicle panes presents the most significant economic opportunity.
