The Science Behind 3M™ Safety & Security Window Films

What is 3M™ Safety & Security Film?

A window film, sometimes referred to as a tint, is a thin laminate film that can be installed on the interior or exterior of glass. 3M™ Safety & Security Films are built to be strong and nearly tear resistant – which means an added layer of security for your Jewish school, community center or synagogue. For instance, 3M’s Ultra Series of the window security film is about 8 mil (or 0.20 mm) thick and has a tensile strength of 32,000 psi with a break strength of 255 pounds.

How does 3M Safety Film Work?

After impact, the film works by firmly holding together shattered glass fragments, preventing the glass shards from flying and hurting people or damaging property. The film’s performance increases when it is paired with an Impact Protection Adhesive, which firmly attaches the film to the edge of the glass frame. 3M™ Window Films, Ultra Prestige Series is a film that not only offers a security shield but also provides solar control film protection. The films are constructed using 200 layers of very thin films, each one specifically placed to deflect the unwanted effects of the sun, including infrared heat, UV rays, solar energy and more. These films can help block heat, reduce high costs associated with keeping your facility cool, reduce glare, stop UV rays from fading furniture and flooring and add privacy.

What makes 3M films different?

3M is a global company known for its science, innovation and technology. It’s 3M™ Safety and Security Films are no exception. 3M’s safety films have been placed under a series of tests, including against spontaneous glass breakage, seismic events and low-force glass impacts. The films have proven to hold glass together firmly after repeated impact (such as someone hitting a glass window – like an unwanted burglar or rioter) for up to two full minutes, which provides additional time for emergency responders to arrive.
