It should also be noted that the solar versions of these coatings, IE security glazing films that also feature solar properties for reduced energy usage and or privacy elements meet the same security life safety criteria.

Landmark institutions and buildings throughout the world utilize these systems.

Recent horrific events at schools in the USA have also heightened the awareness of the advantages for implementing these systems when replacing entry level glass is cost prohibitive.

As a personal aside it should be mentioned that 3M Prestige security window film meets all deed restrictions and is an ideal choice for gated communities. 

Advanced Film Solutions is happy to provide documentation highlighting and demonstrating these facts.

Security glazing window film is a practical, affordable and functional choice for property managers, security and campus facility managers who require force protection, window hardening, fragment retention and intrusion protection.
