Application:

Providing protection to the public in the event that a toughened glazed unit breaks, due to spontaneous breakage or mechanical stress

Due to work on the foundations of a building in adjacent street and previous breakages of existing toughened glass units. The client wanted to ensure that all members of staff and public were protected in the event of a further glass breakage, caused by mechanical stress or spontaneous glass breakage.

Solarshield’s team installed internal 3M clear 175 Micron anti-shatter window film, together with the 3M IPP edge retention system was installed to glazing over and surrounding the entrance at 200 Broomielaw - Glasgow.

In the event of any future breakages the film and edge retention system will hold the broken pane in place, until it can be safely replaced.
