Shatterproof, armoured film

Shatterproof and armoured window glass film is a high-tech means of protection that ensures safety and minimises risks from explosions and blast waves in industrial, educational, laboratory, office and commercial premises. In environments where the safety of people and the security of property is critical, such film becomes a reliable barrier against the devastating effects of dangerous events.

Key benefits of blast resistant film include

Protection from blast waves. When an explosion occurs, the shock wave exerts significant pressure on glass surfaces, which usually results in their destruction. Shock resistant and armoured film holds glass fragments in place, preventing them from flying around. This significantly reduces the risk of injury to people from debris, which is one of the main threats in an explosion.

Enhanced strength. The film significantly increases the glass's resistance to shattering, even under the intense pressure or impact that occurs in explosions. It not only prevents the glass from shattering, but also helps reduce the destructive effect of the blast wave.

Anti-vandal and protective function. In the event of targeted attacks, vandalism or terrorist threats, armour film provides an extra layer of protection, making it difficult to penetrate glass surfaces.

Minimising secondary damage. Even if an explosion damages a building, the film prevents the formation of dangerous debris that could harm people, equipment or products.

Fire resistance. Certain types of film have increased resistance to high temperatures, which is important in cases of explosions accompanied by fires.

Areas of application

Industrial areas. In areas where there is a high risk of explosions (e.g. chemical, gas or power plants), the film reduces the risk to personnel and preserves the functionality of the workplace.

Educational facilities. Ensuring the safety of students and teachers, especially in crisis situations such as explosions or man-made accidents.

Laboratories. Establishments that work with explosive materials or in high-risk environments need maximum security to protect personnel and valuable equipment.

Office buildings. Protect employees and clients in the event of terrorist threats or emergencies.

Commercial premises. Minimising damage to visitors and preserving goods even in the event of emergency events.

Technical characteristics

High resistance to impact and blast waves.

Retention of glass fragments thanks to the multi-layer structure of the film.

Compliance with international safety standards, particularly for areas with a high risk of explosions.

UV protection and additional thermal insulation properties.

Why is this important?

Explosions, even small explosions, can cause significant damage due to the shock wave and glass fragments that travel at speeds of more than 100 kilometres per hour. Shatterproof and armoured film transforms glass from a potential source of danger into an effective protective element that keeps people safe, reduces property damage and minimises the length of time it takes to recover from an incident.

Conclusion

Installing shatterproof and armoured film on window glass is a strategic approach to security in any type of premises. Its ability to resist blast waves and reduce the impact of hazardous situations makes it an important element of protection for modern buildings and businesses where safety is a priority.
