About Safety Window Film
Safety Window Film from Sureguard Window Films® is used to protect glass in all locations (doors, windows, curtain walling etc) which are not made from safety glass. Safety Window Film, is a self adhesive transparent film that imparts strength to the glass and in the event of a breakage prevents glass from shattering. It can also be used on windows, coffee tables or any glass surface.
Safety Window Film are designed to improve the safety performance of existing glass. Professionally installed, they have been tested to BS6206 Class B and are used throughout commerce to upgrade existing “non-safety” glass to the requirements of Regulation 14 of the Workplace (Health, Safety & Welfare) Regulations 1992.
Although these films are normally supplied as a clear material, options are available to combine solar control and privacy with safety performance in one Window Film.
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.
Whether the glass is broken through impact, building movement, vandalism or weather conditions, safety Window Film provides 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.
