According to the German Automotive Club ADAC, in the year 2004 there were over 446,000 persons involved in traffic accidents in Germany. A frequent type of injury, among others, were cuts caused by flying glass splinters. PROTECT films reduce the risk of this type of injury. Even though the glass window breaks it remains intact in the window frame due to the strong adhesive bond of the safety film. Thanks to PROTECT films the occupants are hardly subject to the risk of injury from flying glass splinters.
In a DEKRA ram impact test (M050405001) the glass splinter protection was tested on the basis of a simulated side impact and effectively confirmed.
Splinter/Accident protection (at home)
PROTECT Films reduce the risk of injury by holding together the pieces of splintered and broken glass
In every household, glass windows and doors, glass panels in doors and glass display cabinets pose a significant safety risk in the event of an accident.
Children who are running around playing are at particular risk of injury if glass gets broken.
The highly tear-resistant PROTECT film creates a laminated-glass effect that reduces these risks significantly and also offers protection against break-ins and objects being thrown through the windows of the car.
