Protect your glass from chips, cracks and damage

Shattershield® window film from The Window Film Company is designed to act as a protective, sacrificial barrier in the event of glazing being struck by debris from the road, or damaged in an accidental or malicious fashion.

Invisible Protection

Once in place, the film is barely detectable, providing protection without changing the appearance.

Replace the film, not the glass

If damage is sustained, the film can quickly and cost-efficiently be replaced instead of the glass.

Get peace of mind with one easy installation

Shattershield® impact resistant window film is specially developed to protect glass from accidental or intentional damage, acting as a sacrificial barrier for glazing.

Defence against damage.

Glass can be a delicate material if left untreated. Cracks and chips can be caused by the most innocuous incident, while malicious and unlawful damage is regrettably an ongoing threat. Regardless of how glazing is damaged or broken, the need to protect people is clear. Replacing damaged and broken glass is costly from both a financial and disruption point of view. An application of Shattershield® will provide a near-invisible protective layer, providing immediate and long-lasting defence against damage.

Clear Protection.

Shattershield® has been developed to be optically clear, meaning that once applied it is virtually undetectable to the naked eye, unlike most solar control films which are specifically designed to help with energy efficiency and heat rejection. This makes the Shattershield® solution ideal for situations where high-level protection is required but the appearance of the glass needs to remain unaffected.

Examples could include hotels, shopfronts and residential properties, but the film is suitable for any glazing that requires a layer of protection.

Absorbs impact.

This patented safety and security window film is an impact resistant product that works by absorbing the impact of standard hazards such as stones kicked up by passing traffic, while also protecting glass against intentional damage.

Once applied, the film is easy to clean – simply treat the film as you would a normal window, while the transparent nature of the film means that passers-by or the general public will still be afforded a view into your property or premises.

Removable in the future.

Shattershield® window film utilises a unique adhesive that has been designed to deliver a strong bond without being permanent; should the need arise for the film to be removed and the existing glass returned to its original state, it can be achieved. 

Shattershield® impact resistant window film can also be installed alongside other films to deliver additional benefits. A dual application of film can provide solutions for sun control, heat reduction, privacy and even decoration – if you have a glass related issue of any sort, The Window Film Company can help.

Safety Window Film Installation at Hilton Hotel

Safety Window Film Installation at Hilton Hotel

Location: Islington, London N1

Goal: Additional protection was required for glass shower screens in a busy hotel environment. Safety window film was installed to reduce the risk of injury in the event of breakage.

Results:

  • Installed clear 175-micron safety film to shower screens in 122 rooms.
  • Applied film to both sides of toughened glass.
  • Improved safety by holding glass together on breakage.

The installation highlights the benefits of applying safety window film to existing toughened glass. Protection is increased while the appearance of the shower screens remains unchanged. A discreet solution for busy hotel environments.
