Madico’s Glass-Gard, a PET-based laminate available in 7MIL and 15MIL, enhances glass strength and anti-spall performance when combined with PVB through lamination. Suitable for various applications including forced entry, bullet-resistant, and storm-resistant glazing, it ensures superior protection, safety, and durability while maintaining transparency and ease of fabrication.
Madico offers the Glass-Gard anti-spall laminates in two thicknesses to help you achieve the glass performance necessary for today’s standards. Our 7MIL laminate is designed for typical anti-spall and additional strength that you commonly see in the industry and our 15MIL laminate offers additional strength and performance for higher risk applications.
The fabrication process with Glass-Gard laminates can be done with typical lamination equipment. Our laminates are used by many customers in both autoclave and lamination oven systems, requiring very little to no modification to the lamination process.
When glass is impacted by an object, the pieces of glass can be dangerous to people inside of buildings, vehicles, or public transportation. Glass-Gard anti-spall laminates is a protective layer between the glass and people.
Glass-Gard anti-spall laminates serves as a lightweight and efficient solution for enhancing the strength of the overall glass system. Through various testing, our anti-spall laminate has helped our clients reduce weight and thickness of their overall glass make-ups.
As an OEM glass fabricator, you want options when it comes to your suppliers. Madico’s Glass-Gard products are primed on one side to increase adhesion and can be used with any brand PVB.
The strength of Glass-Gard anti-spall laminates when combined with PVB, lies in its ability to withstand high-velocity impacts, dispersing energy and minimizing risk. Our laminates use Madico’s proven chemical and scratch resistant hard coat that offers glass-like properties.
Madico’s Glass-Gard is a PET-based laminate that can be used with any brand PVB to achieve an additional protective layer to the interior (air) side of glass. This protective layer when combined with glass and PVB through an auto-clave or lamination oven process, increases the overall strength of the final glass construction and achieves superior anti-spall performance. Glass-Gard can be used with monolithic glass as a light weight solution, or in laminated glass to increase the overall strength without the need for additional layers. Glass-Gard anti-spall laminates combines Madico’s trusted hard coat, to create an excellent scratch and chemical resistant layer, so you can feel confident in the lifespan of our products.
