Safety & Security Window Film

Blocks out up to 99% of the sun’s harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays to protect your eyes and skin
Clear as glassy
Resists typhoon & more safety in the event of glass shattering
Anti-bandit, bullet resistance and boom resistance
Flame-retardant Durable & quality material

A series of colorless, transparent polyester films are designed and constructed specially featuring an ultra- strong bonding system to hold the shattered glass together. Under unpredictable weather conditions, safety window film can withstand gale-force wind and resist typhoon to prevent injuries and related damages. Even in extreme force, the top security film can successfully reinforce ordinary, commonly available glass to meet “Anti-Bandit” BS-5544 high impact standard. Glass with adequate thickness can be strengthened by top security film to resist rounds fired from a range of pistol weapons including 9mm, 0.45, 0.38 and “0.357Magnum” handguns.

All of the safety & security films are able to block up to 99% of the sun’s harmful ultraviolet radiation (UV), which not only substantially reduce fading of furnishings, but protect your eyes and skin.

Safety & security window film is installed on the inner surface of the glass. It acts as an invisible armor against intruders by reinforcing the glass and can thus resist penetration. In most cases when it is used with an appropriate alarm system, it will deter intruders from entering your premises.

Glass Protection Guide

Glass Thickness	Glass Type	Film Thickness	Protection Level
4mm, 6mm	Plate, Float and Tempered	2mil, 4mil	Holds shattered glass during accidents and therefore reduces the risk of injury. Upgrades existing glazing to meet current Health & Safety standards.
4mm, 6mm	Plate, Float and Tempered	7mil, 8mil, 12mil	Provides all the benefits of 2 mil, 4 mil with added strength. Suitable for larger panes of glass in excess of 2m². In the event of malicious vandalism while entry into the building is not the objective, it therefore significantly reduces damage and injury.
4mm, 6mm	Plate, Float and Tempered	14mil, 15mil	Provides all safety and anti-vandal characteristics of 4 mil, 7 mil, 8 mil & 12 mil, as well as high grade protection in the event of a bomb blast, and reduces the threat of flying glass. It will upgrade the glass and substantially increase security level to withstand repeated physical attack and deter would be thieves or intruders.
10 mm	Plate, Float	14mil, 15mil	As well as providing all the safety, anti-vandal and physical security properties with an application to a 4mm, 6mm glass, this combination has been shown to withstand 20-gauge shot gun at a distance of 2 meters or a 0.22 handgun without any penetration or spilling. It is ideally suited for the application of exterior glazing.
12 mm	Plate, Float	14mil, 15mil	As well as providing all the safety, anti-vandal and physical security properties of an application to a 6mm glass, this combination has been shown to withstand a round fired from a 12 gauge fired sawn-off shot gun at a distance of 2 meters, 0.38 handgun without any penetration or spilling. It is ideally suited for application of exterior glazing.
15 mm	Plate, Float	14mil, 15mil	As above – with additional strength was shown to withstand fired from 7.62mm, 9mm, 0.45 and 0.357 “Magnum” handguns without any penetration or spilling.
15 mm	Plate, Float	14mil, 15mil + 4mil	Designed to be used on internal glass screens (window of cashier counter), this system has been shown to withstand fired from 0.22, 0.38, 0.45,7.62mm, 9mm and 0.357 “Magnum” handguns and even a heavy gauge shotgun without any penetration or spilling. The single layer of 4 mil on the front of the glass reduces glass spilling from the contact surface without dramatically affecting the visual clarify.

Note: Although Security Films have been exhaustively tested and are proven from time to time in demonstrations and in real life situations, the information provided in this table is for guidance only. No film can guarantee absolutely 100% protection. But when used on an appropriate glass and installed by authorized installers, Clear Security Films can substantially reduce the risk of damage and injury.
