A good security system for your property is one of the best investments that you can make into your business. Physical damage to your building, theft, and workplace hazards put your business at risk and can cause a major financial setback. That’s why more and more businesses these days are investing significant capital into more advanced security technologies like bomb blast window film.

Bomb blast window film offers Fort Collins businesses a way to secure high risk areas of their property. Doors and windows made of glass are given added reinforcement and protection that prevents them from being shattered, reducing the risk of injury and damage to building interiors.

Below, we’ve discussed some of the benefits of bomb blast window film and how it can keep your business safe.

The Science Behind Bomb Blast Window Film & How It Works

It may seem unlikely that something like window film can keep your property safe in the event of a bomb blast. But it’s actually quite an effective solution.

Windows are the first thing to break during a bombing, tornado, or severe weather storm. The glass simply cannot resist the high force of impact. Glass contains natural impurities that make it brittle and prone to breaking. The molecular bonds in glass are also very strong, which reduces its flexibility. It’s much weaker than metal and also does not bend as easily, which makes it prone to shattering. This is why school teachers are instructed to move children away from windows during tornadoes.

Bomb blast window film addresses this issue by eliminating the impurities in glass surfaces and boosting their flexibility. This way, when a window is hit with a hard object or some other form of impact, it absorbs the shock much better. Energy is transferred sideways across the glass instead of accumulating in one spot. All of this prevents the glass from breaking.
