Blast Resistant Glass
While Blast Resistant window systems have been used by the military for years in hostile locations, it's only been recently that they've been specified for installations here in the United States. 

While specifications can vary depending on the application, Blast Resistant systems consist of heavy duty aluminum extrusions loaded with steel and secured with specially designed anchoring systems. The glazing is typically made up of 2 different types of glass fabricated into a dual pane insulated unit. The outboard lite is usually tempered and withstand initial forces before breaking. The inboard lite is a laminated glass with a thicker than normal inner-layer of a PVB (polyvinyl butyral).  This like can break and deform without allowing glass fragments to enter the interior space.

Nationwide Glass is not only familiar with these systems, we have experience with them as well. We'd be happy to have one of our knowledgeable estimators review your plans and provide you a detailed quote. Engineering is available to ensure the proper application. If your project requires leed data and reporting, we can provide that as well.
 
We've got the right product to meet that need. Call us today for a Free quote at 323-221-1756 or  contact us by e-mail.
