Effective Bomb Blast Window Film in London
We were initially established to help protect businesses from the threat of a terrorist bomb blast; unfortunately, the threat of a terrorist attack is still very high and still a big concern. Provided across the South East, including London, our bomb blast safety films protect you and your employees and offer peace of mind when based in a busy city centre like London.
In an explosion, glass particles can travel at the speed of up to 150mph. If a bomb explodes 400 metres away, glass from a broken window can hit a wall five metres away at a speed of 75 metres per second. In this scenario, glass particles of any size are unquestionably lethal.
In fact, 90% of injuries aren't caused by the explosion itself but by flying glass. This is why it is absolutely imperative that steps are taken to ensure the windows and partitions are sufficiently safe and protected.
One of the easiest, cheapest and quickest ways to protect against bomb blasts is to install a bomb blast safety window film. By strengthening and reinforcing your existing glass and helping to hold broken glass together in the event of an explosion, our bomb blast window film greatly reduces the chance of glass causing injury, damage or death. Because the latest films are incredibly flexible and able to stretch, they can absorb a significant amount of the shockwave caused by an explosion.

* Infrared rejection = 1 - average unweighted transmittance using ASTM E 903. **Tdw-ISO is the percentage of transmitted light that causes fading. A lower number means more protection against fading.
