Bullet-resistant laminated glass is designed to stop or slow down bullets using advanced multi-layer technology.
Layered Construction
A typical bullet-resistant glass panel consists of:
- Multiple layers of high-strength glass
- Polycarbonate or special plastic layers
- Strong adhesive interlayers
Each layer plays an important role in stopping ballistic threats.
Energy Absorption Process
When a bullet hits the glass:
- The outer glass layer slows the bullet and begins to break.
- The energy spreads across the laminated layers.
- The polycarbonate layer absorbs the remaining energy and stops penetration.
This process prevents the bullet from passing through the glass.
Multiple Levels of Protection
Bullet-resistant glass is manufactured in different protection levels depending on the threat level.
Common ballistic protection standards include:
- Handgun resistance
- High-powered rifle resistance
- Military-grade ballistic protection
Each project requires different glass thickness and layering depending on security needs.
