Safety Film - Why have it professionally fitted?
The
application of our clear safety and/or security
films will
improve the safety performance of the glass to
which it is applied.The bond that the adhesive
forms between the film itself and the glass,
ensures that the level of fragmentation after break
is
dramatically reduced.
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.
Safety/Security
Film on its own, DOES NOT meet this required
safety standard, it only meets the standard when
installed
to glass using an approved application procedure.
This procedure replicates that used when the
film/glass combination is tested under the BS EN
12600 standard.
Safety Glass Film
application procedure includes marking
of the pane of glass with an
approved
identifier clearly stating that the combination
of glass and
film satisfies the requirements of BS EN 12600.
Similar
to safety glass 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 - 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/Shop4windowfilms will not supply "compliance" marking under any circumstances to any third party.
