BlastShield is a multi-layered combination of incredibly robust blast-resistant glass and poly-composite panels laminated together in varying thicknesses. 

The unique design allows the flexibility of the interlayer and the adhesion between layers of laminated glass to continue to resist blast after the glass layers fracture, providing protection from significantly higher blast loads compared to monolithic glass.

BlastShield needs to be custom designed as part of a complete system to ensure it performs as required in an explosion event. The blast-resistant glass, frames, and anchorage must all be able to survive the blast loading in order for the overall system to provide adequate protection. The Glasshape technical team work with blast engineers on specific project designs to ensure that complete systems will withstand the required blast requirements.

Features and benefits include:

• Range of protection levels available.
• Negligible distortion to visibility.
• Bespoke dimensions as required.
• Up to 60 minutes intruder resistance, in addition to blast-resistant properties.
• Spall panel prevents glass fragment spray on non-attack side.
• Individually certified using state-of-the-art blast modelling.

Note: an approved framing and anchoring system is required.
