Madico’s Anti-Intrusion and View Control Security Film Solutions Prevent Forced Entry and Increase Safety with Our Durable and Effective Film Solutions
Madico’s SafetyShield® 1500 is the ONLY school safety film that has fully passed UL 972 certification testing. This standard focuses on evaluating the performance and resistance of glazing materials against forced entry attempts, such as physical attacks or break-in attempts. UL 972 certification ensures that the materials have undergone rigorous testing to determine their ability to withstand various forms of forced entry, including impact, cutting, and prying. These tests are audited and updated quarterly to stay in compliance.
