Protective Glazing Window Film Ship Safe, Advanced Film Solutions

Advanced Film Solutions provided protective glazing security window film for a tanker ship.

The ship was docked for resupply and their primary concern was the protection of their crew against pirates at sea.

The bridge deck windows were protected with LLumar Clear Shatter Control window film.

The application was further hardened with a wet seal attachment system that creates a system between the glass, frames and the LLumar Film.

This application will maintain the integrity of the window envelope. If Somali pirates shoot at the bridge windows the glass will remain in the frames. This is similar to the objectives of retail store asset protection and school safety requirements.

Many of our local government building have contracted with Advanced Film Solutions to protect their people and property.

The optical clarity and documented performance combined with the installation capabilities of our techs made this smooth sailing!

Our team protected a sister ship last year docked in Taiwan!

Protect People & Assets With Glazing Window Film

Property managers, asset protection, and security management have the critical responsibility to ensure safety for people and assets at soft target locations.

By soft target we are referring to facilities that may be targeted by extremists for potential explosives where security personnel are not typically employed.

Glass is an ineffective barrier and flying glass shards and debris can become catastrophic during a blast event.

The Federal Government under the auspices of the GSA and Department of Defense have established blast mitigation standards since the Oklahoma City bombing in 1994.

The Glazing protection films installed by Advanced Film Solutions meets these standards and these films provide this level of documented, tested people and asset protection.

It is highly recommended that the film installation is attached to storefront frames using an approved attachment system.

Advanced Film Solutions typically utilizes Dow Corning 995 Structural Silicone which has been tested and approved by the Federal officials including the Army Corps.  of Engineers.

 

Advanced Film Solutions is flexible in the approved window film brands that meet these standards.

  • Eastman Chemicals LLumar, Vista and SunTek
  • Madico and Madico Sunscape
  • Saint-Gobain’s Armorcoat
  • Johnson Laminating
  • Hanita- Avery-Dennison

There are aesthetic variations between these films but the safety level is equal as all the films represented meet the GSA standards.

Many property and asset protection managers consider solar safety security films that not only provide the life safety benefits but also provide solar heat gain reduction and privacy (reflective combination films.)

We recommend that you consider a free site survey and estimate.

These are difficult times and no one is happy about the need to consider these covert methods for protecting your personnel and assets.

Nevertheless; if you are concerned about a potential threat (think religious institution or schools) than these effective methods should be strongly considered!

Tampa Bay Window Film

Advanced Film Solutions, Tampa School Campus Security Window Film

Glass safety enhancement with Advanced Film Solutions shatter resistant window film.

The unfortunate reality in the USA was the high rate of shooting incidents at schools.

This was the harsh reality and whatever one’s political persuasion concerning weapons, mental health and second amendment debates; our primary consideration is student and teacher protection.

One significant aspect of a security approach beyond law enforcement or onsite security personnel is an increase in perimeter protection and access.

Glass is the weakest point of entry for any facility.

Thicker safety films when properly installed and attached to the window frames have a documented improvement for student protection.

Independent testing throughout the decades by the Federal government through the GSA, Army Corp of Engineering and the Department of Defense have demonstrated the efficacy of these films.

Advanced Film Solutions has built a team of expert installers who are dedicated to performing the best possible installations.

The shatter protection window film we provide are manufactured by the leaders in the window film industry.

These films meet the stringent requirements for force protection and fragment retention and impact. All the films we provide have met these standards.

There are differences in appearance between these films that are primarily based upon the solar safety combined films.

shatter film

This type of glass safety film combines a thin film solution in combination with a thick shatter film.

The nuances in appearance include the appearance of the shatter film, privacy level and reflectivity.

This aesthetic consideration is important when school safety administrators determine what type of “look” they want for their school.

Privacy considerations become critical for keeping potential threats from observing what is happening within the school.

Highly reflective films will prevent scoping and simultaneously lower interior glare and heat which is a great concern for schools in warmer climates.

Advanced Film Solutions offers the most choices in shatter film appearance while maintaining the highest level of protection.

Protect Your Tampa Store With Advanced Film Solutions Glazing Film

One unfortunate result of stay at home orders is the closing of many non essential businesses in the Tampa Bay area.

Storefront businesses like retail shops, restaurants, jewelry stores are closed.

These unmanned locations are a target for burglars.

Whether you have an alarm system and video surveillance is immaterial.  These thieves smash and grab inventory before law enforcement has time to respond.

Some business owners have installed plywood like we would during hurricane events. Obviously this is labor intensive and an eye sore.

Advanced Film Solutions installs protective glazing security window film on your storefront glass including doors and windows.

These are clear optically transparent coatings that serve to hold glass in the frames.

We attach the high security impact strength film to the frames to create a complete system that prevents intrusion.

More importantly these systems are inexpensive, effective and are warranted for 15 years.

These are the very same mitigation films employed by the Federal government throughout the USA and major retail stores, landmark buildings, schools and houses of worship.

When these difficult times are over our films will still protect your location from impact, shattering and UV damage.
