Understand the difference between ‘shatterproof window film’ and ‘security window films’.

When talking about ‘Safety & security window film or Glass Impact Attachment Systems’, many people refer to them as ‘Shatterproof Window Film’.

Other names commonly used for 3M security window films include fragment retention film, anti-terrorism film, blast-resistant film, safety film, security film, safety and security film, mylar film, blast curtain film, glass protection film, and shatter-resistant film.

In actuality, there are certain types of 3M Safety and Security films which keep shattered glass in place (similar to a car windshield), strongly deterring entry and preventing theft. Normally, the impact triggers the alarm, further minimizing chances of asset loss.

3M fragment retention security films secure glass during blast, seismic, shatter or ‘smash and grab’ events.

Window film helps hold the glass in place, so criminals don’t have the quick access they need to successfully smash and grab merchandise.
