New 8 Mil Solution Delivers Added Glass Breakage Protection
San Diego, CA – Oct. 20, 2003
Bekaert Specialty Films announced today that it is extending its popular line of Panorama designer and safety window films to now include an 8 Mil (.008”) product designed to help hold residential and commercial glass in place if shattered. This protection greatly reduces the chances of break-ins, property damage and even personal injury that often results from broken glass .
“The beauty of the Panorama window film series is, that it is a virtually unnoticeable product, offering several valuable benefits to home and business owners – reduced energy consumption, furnishing preservation, improved occupant comfort and enhanced exterior aesthetics. Now with the new safety film being four times thicker than a standard solar control window film, it further protects occupants from the hazards of broken glass, delivering an ideal safety solution to customers in key markets – including commercial businesses and coastal residential communities,” said Vice President Sales & Marketing Bekaert Specialty Films Jeffrey Plummer. “The threat of hurricanes and other deadly storms, along with the significant increase in public crimes, has put a demand on alternative measures of protection. Panorama offers viable glass breakage protection, bundled with all the other benefits of a solar control window film.”
Ideal for new or resale homes and commercial buildings, Panorama designer and safety films are an affordable, effective way to improve the comfort and protection of a home or business. Once professionally retrofitted to glass, the results are immediate – shielding properties from the harmful and uncomfortable effects of the sun, while supporting glass should breakage occur. Product warranty coverage ranges from 12 years to lifetime.
Panorama films are sold and installed only through a select network of seasoned professionals. For more information about Panorama designer and safety films, please call 800-282-9031, or visit the Bekaert Specialty Films web site at www.panoramafilm.com.
