You do not want to turn your establishment into a dark bunker. Openness and transparency are very popular with architects and your employees. But does the nature of your organization also entail the necessary risks of incidents such as shootings? With bulletproof glass and frames, you make your windows a robust part of your structural security. <\/p>\n<\/div>
All about Bulletproof Windows<\/h2><\/h1><\/div>Bulletproof glass (also known as safety glass, laminated glass, or bullet-resistant glass) consists of multiple layers of glass, separated by a clear plastic layer (PVB). In addition to its bulletproof properties, this glass is generally also soundproof and blocks most UV radiation. The frames of bulletproof windows are also not standard. Particularly the connection between the different elements (glass, crossbar, frame, sash, sill, lock, cylinder, etc.) is important for the resistance class. We are Happy to Advise You!<\/a><\/h4>\n<\/h4>\nVariants of Bulletproof Glass<\/h3>\n
The composition of the glass depends on the resistance class it must meet. There are also non-splintering and splintering variants. The splintering variant will stop bullets during a shooting without releasing splinters on the inside. This is safer for the people in your building! Glass with a PVB interlayer is also referred to as Splitting (or splintering). If the same glass is equipped with a polycarbonate layer on the inside, this same window is Non-splitting (non-splintering). Additionally, there is a variant that consists entirely of polycarbonate. This is also Non-splitting and at the same time much lighter than the aforementioned variants. This is particularly advantageous for use in vehicles or, for example, windows on floors of large buildings. <\/p>\n<\/div>
