Building code references safety glass standards such as ANSI Z97.1 or 16 CFR 1201. 3M™ Safety Window Films have been impact tested to these and other safety glass standards, and third party test reports are available from independent test labs, such as those that may be accredited by the Safety Glazing Certification Council to facilitate approval by a local code official.
Building code may specify that glass in certain hazardous locations, such as glazing near wet surfaces, doors, floors, ramps and stairs meet certain safety glazing requirements. 3M™ Safety Windows Films & Attachment Systems can help you quickly and easily meet safety glazing impact requirements at a fraction of the cost of replacing windows.**
If the wrong glass was installed on your new construction project, 3M™ Safety Windows Films & Attachment Systems can be a cost effective solution without replacing them — and without significant delays.
*Building codes vary. Consult with a local building code official
**According to 16 CFR 1201 Safety Standard for Architectural Glazing Materials. Local building codes vary, consult a local code official for requirements and approval criteria.
