Bulletproof glass: ballistic classes from BR2 to BR7
Our bulletproof glass is a specialized ballistic resistant glass designed to protect the life and health of its users.

Bulletproof glass – properties and purpose
Our bulletproof glass has a wide variety of usage in e.g. banks, exchange offices, pawnshops, jewelers – so basically everywhere, where there is a high risk of gun robbery or burglary. Bulletproof glass panes can be installed in outside windows, storefronts, doors, or counters.
Our bulletproof counters have an increased protection for burglary, and an enhanced resistance to penetration when struck with big ram or axe. They are an extremly durable investment that ensures the highest level of safety for years to come.

Bulletproof glass may also be assembled with thermal insulation glass, reflective glass or fireproof glass.
To be given a particualr rating, the glazing (dimension 500 x 500 mm) must stop the bullet three times, with multiple strikes placed within 125 mm of each other.
We can split the glazing into two groups: “NS” are bulletproof and also shatterproof, while “S” are only bulletproof.
Blast Resistant Glazing
Our offer also includes special armored glass resistant to detonation waves. Glass that is resistant to the pressure of a detonation wave is usually used in places with greater chance of threat like terrorist attack. However, it can also successfully protect from weather cataclysm like strong hurricanes or hailstorms.
The classification of products is established in accordance to the requirements set in the Polish Standard PN-EN 13541.
The strenght and resistance of our glass can be proved by Product Certificate issued to us by The Polish Anartctic Academy of Science after we assembled our windows in H. Arctowski Polish Antarctic Station on King Jerry Island.
