Security Films - Storms, Break-ins and Terrorism

The impact of unwelcome elements like severe weather, vandalism and ultraviolet rays is reduced with 3M™ Scotchtint™ and Scotchshield™ Ultra window films. The first way we improve light is by removing virtually all its destructive ultraviolet rays, the rays most responsible for causing fading and sun damage. Our window films block up to 99% of the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays. And we can protect your home or building from more elements than the sun. Our Scotchtint sun control films and especially Scotchshield Ultra Safety and Security window films hold your glass in place, helping to protect you and your family from destructive weather and crime. Our window films even allow you to control the amount of heat and glare that comes into your home or building through the windows. From our clear Scotchshield Plus All Season window films, we can help make any home or building a more comfortable place to work or live. To enjoy light, your way, look our way.

During high powered wind storms and hurricanes a building's Achilles heal is typically its glass surfaces. Shattered into sharp fragments and propelled at high speeds, these glass fragments can cause severe injury to the building's occupants. Thankfully, extensive testing has proven that the threat of injury due to flying glass can be greatly reduced with the use of 3M Safety and Security Window Films.

In addition to weather protection, this new Prestige Series film helps protect homes and buildings from would-be intruders. An untreated window is easily shattered and displaced by almost any heavy, blunt object, allowing easy access to buildings and homes. However, because windows treated with the newest version of the Prestige Series help hold glass in place, the film provides an added barrier to entry.

Over the past 20 years, 3M Safety and Security Films have been blast tested by various private and government agencies from Australia to England. Windows treated with these films have been subjected to a variety of close range explosive charges, including TNT, pipe bombs, molotov cocktails and more. In test after test, the protective film has demonstrated the ability to retain shattered glass, even when the entire window has been blown out of its frame. These tests have concluded that 3M Safety and Security Film significantly reduces the potential of glass cut injuries.

These films use patented multilayer technology to create a polymer-based window film that is clear, tear resistant and durable. When applied to the inside of a window, the film helps keep the glass in place should the window shatter. This helps prevent shards of glass from flying throughout a room, the leading cause of injury during a hurricane according to the Center for Disease Control.
