Forced-entry resistant
glazing
APPLICATIONS:
SECURITY-CRITICAL FACILITIES SUCH AS GOVERNMENT BUILDINGS, POLICE STATIONS, PRISONS AND HOSPITALS
Tambest forced-entry resistant glazing is engineered for environments where preventing physical intrusion and delaying break-in attempts are essential security requirements.
Forced-entry resistant glazing forms a critical part of a building’s passive protection in facilities requiring extreme resistance against criminal activity and vandalism, without compromising safety or light transmission.
Forced-entry protection can also be combined with signal shielding and other protective glazing technologies to create hybrid security structures.
Structural features
Protection against forced entry
Forced-entry resistant glazing is engineered to prevent physical intrusion and delay break-in attempts in security-critical environments.
Classified protection for different risk levels
The products are tested and classified in accordance with the SFS-EN 356 standard, covering impact-resistant P4A–P5A classes as well as higher-security P6B–P8B classes designed to withstand repeated axe strikes and mechanical break-in attempts.
Laminated security structure
The multilayer laminated structure securely bonds glass fragments to the interlayer, allowing the glazing to maintain its structural integrity even after heavy impact.
Standards-compliant forced-entry resistant glazing
Tambest glazing products are manufactured in accordance with applicable European product standards, including EN 12150 (toughened safety glass), EN 14449 (laminated glass) and EN 12600 (impact resistance classification). The ANSI marking indicates compliance with the American ANSI Z97.1 safety standard requirements.
When required, products can also be tested and certified in accordance with the federal CPSC 16 CFR 1201 standard.
