What is safety and security laminate?
Laminates are a micro-thin multi-ply inter woven polymer transparent film or called (P.E.T) combined with aggressive bonding adhesives that once applied to the interior side of glass makes it highly resistant to natural disasters, break-ins, bullets, and even bombs.

Do you offer just the clear products or do you have tinted shades?
Our laminates are available in clear, two shades of grey, and a silver reflective tone.

I already have an alarm, why do I still need security film?

Alarms make noise but does nothing to stop an intruder from entering your home or business. Most criminals know that they have plenty of time to get in and out before authorities show up. Our laminates combined with an alarm provides the ultimate in protection. The alarm will alert authorities while the intruder is still outside.

How do these products work?
The real science is the combination of the highest quality grade polymers with aggressive adhesives. Once cured onto the glass, the laminate creates a super-bond that increases the overall break strength of the window or glass. If there is an impact directed to the outside of the window the security laminate distributes the force across the surface of the glass therefore diminishing the impact.

What happens if someone is trapped in building or home during a Fire?
First find the nearest exit door or simple open a window to get out. In the case that the only way out is an enclosed window, you can simply knock the window out of the frame using an object such as a chair, or stool for example. The laminates only work one way form the outside in. This said popping out the window from the inside the laminate will keep the window intact preventing you from serious injury. In the case of an emergency where a home or building is secured with our laminates, professional fire fighters and police have the experience and know how to get in quickly by using power tools such as chain saws to cut the window open.

Will the laminate fade, peel, bubble or discolor?
No they will not. Our security laminates are guaranteed for life of the glass against these types of problems. The reason these things happen on cheaper and inferior films are because the sun breaks down the adhesive. Our adhesives are pressure and heat activated and are not effected by the sun in this way, in fact, the sun actually makes the laminates bond stronger to the glass over time.

How do you clean the windows with the laminates on it?

The laminate is made of plastic and enhanced with an anti scratch coating, you simply can wash your windows with plain water and mild detergent or glass cleaner using a soft lint free cloth such as a micro fiber cloth.

Can an intruder use a glass cutter to break in?
No they cannot. Glass cutters score glass so that its easier to punch in on untreated glass but our security laminate will prevent the ability to punch the window or glass in.

Will security laminates make my car windows bullet-resistant?
No they will not. Car windows are far too thin to offer bullet-resistance. What our laminates can do is offer an incredible amount of break-in resistance and or vandalism.

Can we install these products ourselves?
No. Our trained and experienced distributor technicians have to perform the installations for the product warranty to be valid and because it’s very difficult to install correctly with out proper know how and special tools.
