At-Risk of Damage

The majority of glazing is at constant risk of damage, and if the glass isn’t toughened or laminated, there is a far greater chance of it breaking. By applying the specialist safety window film, you have the ability to upgrade glass, making it much tougher to break whilst ensuring that even if it does, the glass will break in a way less likely to cause harm.

Once applied, the range of safety film available from WFGP works by placing an additional barrier on the glass helping to provide an additional level of protection against accidental breakage. In the event that the glass does break, the safety window film makes sure it does so in a safe way – holding the broken pieces in place, not allowing them to fall from the frame in jagged pieces; the dangers of which are self-explanatory.

Cost-Effective Relief

Our emergency repair window film offers a proven method of holding shattered glass in place whilst awaiting repairs. Qualities including strength and durability will ensure that damaged glazing will remain in place, whilst significantly reducing any further health and safety risk to you, your staff or your customers that may be caused by the glass breaking.
