The risk of personal injury due to a glass related accident should weigh heavy on the mind of any business or property owner. Glass-Gard® Safety and Security films are specially designed to help hold a broken pane of glass together, keeping dangerous shards attached to the film's adhesive system. Acting as a thin barrier, Glass-Gard® prevents flying shards of razor sharp glass from becoming a danger.

Safety & Security films are advocated by many nonprofit consumer safety organizations as an effective way of protecting against glass related injuries. Whether you are concerned about sustaining damage from a natural disaster, dealing with the unexpected danger of a terrorist attack, or simply wanting some protection against criminal activity, Glass-Gard Safety & Security films will work for you.

GLASS-GARD® Safety and Security Films:

Deter criminal activity:

Criminals know that glass is the weakest point of entry into a home or building. It only takes a few seconds to smash through a pane of glass and enter a property. Even with an alarm system in place, criminals can usually gain access to a building or home, steal valuable items and be gone before law enforcement can arrive. However, with GLASS-GARD protecting your property, it is much tougher to break through the glass. It will usually take a criminal several tries to bust open a hole in protected glass, forcing most to leave in frustration without obtaining any of your belongings. Without taking the extreme measure of removing all the glass from your home or property, there is no better way to add protection against criminal activity.

Protect against natural disasters:

Glass is one of the first casualties during a hurricane, tornado or earthquake. In the event of glass breakage, dangerous glass shards, wind, rain and flying debris are given full access to your home or property - causing property damage and risk of personal injury. In addition, further loss can be caused by vandals and looters who enter your property once glass is broken and out of place. With GLASS-GARD film installed, your windows and doors become invisible barricades, keeping you and your property safely protected during the worst natural disasters.

Reduce glass related injuries in the event of a bomb blast. With an increased level of terrorist activities around the world, we are all more aware and concerned about the potential of a local attack. With bombs and explosives being the predominant weapon of choice, terrorists cause extreme damage and human injury through flying debris and glass. Often an explosion will cause glass breakage several hundred feet away from the detonation point. This glass becomes flying shrapnel that can cause extreme damage and injury.

While very little can be done to protect against a direct attack, you can reduce the potential for injury and damage by installing GLASS-GARD on all windows and doors.
