Current legislation stipulates that glazing in all non-domestic premises that is deemed to be in a critical location should be made of a safety material. Typically, this means to approximately waist height (of an average adult) in all windows and shoulder height in or adjacent to doors. Failure to comply may result in prosecution in the event of an accident, as well as the obvious likelihood of serious injury to the general public or your employees.
The option of re-glazing all critical location with laminated or toughened glass is a very expensive, as well as disruptive operation. However, the application of a fully tested safety film to the glazing will ensure compliance with the regulations. There is a comprehensive range of safety and security window film that can protect against accidental impact, as well as violent attack, smash-and-grab break in attempts, explosions and spontaneous breaks.
When accidents or spontaneous breakages occur, shattered glass fragments pose a great risk of personal injury. Our Safety Film helps to hold glass fragments in place until they can safely be removed and replaced. In addition to the loss of merchandise, smash-and-grab theft can cost retailers thousands in damage to windows and furnishings. Safety Film deters forced entry by making windows harder to penetrate, encouraging would-be intruders to seek easier targets. And unlike bars or grates, Safety Film doesn’t block product displays, so you can deter thieves without discouraging customers.
Enhance your safety and security with the application of safety film. Safety Film can protect people and objects from shards of glass if the glass is ever broken. This means that glass, once installed, can later be upgraded to meet legal standards.
