BS6262

British Safety Standards 6262 – Safety film on Glass and Glazing.

BS6262 British Standard sets out guidance on the use of safety film on glass and glazing within buildings.

Designers and architects have to pay particular attention to the use of the areas where glass is to be installed.

Do the activities present a greater risk of injury through impact with glass?

Examples could include:

• Gymnasiums – High level of activity -
• Swimming Pools – Increased risk of slipping etc.

Although these references primarily relate to new build projects, refurbishments or changes in use present similar safety concerns.

In order to reduce the project costs but increase future safety it is possible to apply Sureguard Safety Film to existing glazing, upgrading the glass in-situ to a recognized and acceptable safety impact performance standard.
