Official Blog of Armor Glass® International, Inc.
We sell/install an energy-saving + security window film that "armors your glass" and protects your weakest link from breach by hurricanes, earthquakes, tornadoes, hail, burglars, shooters, etc. It cuts solar heat up to 79% and 99% of cancer-causing UV. It costs a fraction of impact glass or shutters. It is the same film was installed on DC federal buildings after 9/11. It works 24/7. VIDEOS and FREE Ebook on how it works at www.ArmorGlass.com
A super massive explosion in the Chinese city of Tianjin showed how even an explosion miles away can blow out window glass, causing injuries and death. Here is a photo posted on Twitter of an apartment littered with glass and blood after the explosion:
Armor Glass security film is Level 2 explosion rated. It would have deflected the blast wave - or kept the glass intact if the frame collapsed, minimizing injuries.
Hundreds of people were injured and some killed by being struck by flying glass during this explosion. It's one more benefit of Armor Glass, in addition to providing burglar and storm protection, while reducing solar heat.
I have to say -- living next to a lake and bay -- one good thing is that I
feel much more secure despite the high winds knowing that my
company's polycarbonate security film is "armoring the glass." Otherwise I'd feel like a sitting duck - glass blowing out means nothing
good.
I had no idea how vulnerable I was all those years until I was
told about the technology and began to study it.It happens because of wind-borne debris strikes, and sometimes just from pure suction as happened to the Chase tower during IKE.
Not for me. With Tropical Storm BILL bearing down I could not care less.
I have "armored by glass" the weakest link that leads to structural failure when breached. And
I am 4 stories up including the underground parking. If water gets this
high there will no longer be a Houston!
The ground-based cars are the only problem in rising water. Now where is my helicopter -- or flying amphibious car to get out of here after the next IKE?
LOL. What happens when glacial melt raises the sea level another 3 feet...? Our car parking spaces will become an underwater boat dock.
We must upgrade our buildings for stronger storms -- Adapt or die folks.
My advice: Upgrade what you have, where you are, when you can
(to paraphrase a Teddy Roosevelt quote I love, "Do What You Can, With
What You Have, Where You Are").
The Climate has become extreme and is not our friend anymore. We can't survive it in "houses of straw."
Armor Glass sells hurricane/tornado explosion-rated security window film. The same film was installed on federal buildings in Washington DC after 9/11.
CEO Michael Fjetland is the founder and a former terrorism analyst who established Armor Glass to protect people and their property from breach of their weakest link. Details on how people live in "Houses of Straw" (free ebook) at our website www.ArmorGlass.com
