Sun Shield Safe from harm?
In 1992 the Health and Safety Executive introduced
Regulation 14 of the Workplace (Health, Safety and
Welfare) Regulations 1992 with the intention of making
all low level glass "safe" for staff and the general
public. It states that glass must be safe, with the
areas most at risk being below waist height in windows
and below shoulder height in doors. One of the ways
building owners could comply with the regulation is if
their glass was enhanced with window safety film
installed to BS6206 Class A or B. Under heavy impact
conditions, cracked glass is held in place by safety
film, providing protection against injuries from sharp
shards of glass. Sun Shield safety film is also widely
used for bomb blast protection and anti-vandal security
protection.
In existing buildings, owners had until 1996 to comply
with the regulations, resulting in a 4-year rush to get
the work completed. Safety window film has a certain
lifespan and warranty. With the 13-year anniversary of
the introduction of Regulation 14 approaching, most of
this existing installed safety window film will be out
of guarantee and its safety effectiveness may now be
seriously compromised and should be replaced.
Sun Shield’s uses a patented peel test to determine
whether films should be replaced, an effective method
that involves minimum disruption to the buildings users.
To keep the premises and staff safe in the event of an
explosion, the simple peel test by completed will
determine whether a new application of film is required.
If your installation of safety films was installed more
than 10 years ago then you would be advised to review
each location and situation, and call in the experts for
a more detailed assessment via a peel test.
