Window Film
Safety Window
Film is used to protect glass doors which
are not made from safety glass. It
is a self adhesive transparent film that prevents
glass from shattering when it
breaks. It can also be used on windows, coffee tables
or any glass surface.
Current
Building regulations and Health & Safety
Legislation
calls for glass within certain areas (Critical Locations)
to meet a minimum IMPACT safety performance standard.
This standard is BS EN 12600.

Whilst this window film can slightly improve the inherent strength of the glass
to which it is applied, reducing the risk of initial breakage is it's real
benefit and comes from safety Film being able to hold together broken
glass fragments.
Whether the glass is broken through impact, building movement, vandalism or weather
conditions Safety Films provide a barrier to fragments of glass breaking free
thus enhancing employee, worker and child safety.
The risk of initial and subsequent injury is dramatically reduced enabling a
safe and quick clean up process afterwards.
Recognized as a highly effective method of improving the safety of glass, Safety
Film is recommended and endorsed by Local Authorities for use by child minders
in order to protect children under their care against glass related injury.
Available at 100 micron thickness - please enquire as to what film will fit your
requirements.
Installation includes marking each
pane of glass with an approved identifier clearly stating that the combination
of glass and film satisfies
the requirements
of BS6206 -
BS EN 12600.
This marking includes full details of the material, the
safety standard and also the installation company. Film applied to glass WITHOUT
the marking, will improve the safety performance of glass but WILL NOT satisfy
the definition of a safety material included within current Building Regulations
/ Health & Safety Legislation.
Customers fitting their own safety film, should not be offered "compliance" marking for them to fit themselves as this is a false statement intimating that
the safety film has been professionally installed by the company who's name
is on the marking "sticker". Sureguard window films will not supply "compliance" marking under any circumstances to any third party.
