Solar Gard® 8Mil Safety and Security Window Film Receives

Large Missile Certification

 

 

Third Party Testing Validates Impact Standards for Industry Leading

Safety and Security Window Film

 

Solar Gard® is pleased to announce its Armorcoat® 8Mil safety and security film has met one of the most

stringent hurricane mitigation tests. These test standards, ASTM 1886/1996 Large Missile Impact Level

“C” or 4.5lb missile, ensure that Solar Gard Armorcoat 8Mil safety and security films offer the best

protection money can buy. Conducted on 3/16” tempered glass, the anchored film withstood the 2x4

impacts and then cycled at pressures equivalent to wind speeds up to 140 mph. These tests give property

owners in hurricane prone areas the peace of mind that only comes with 24x7 window reinforcements

through window film. Solar Gard Armorcoat 8Mil safety and security film is ideal for proactively

safeguarding glass in residential properties up to 30 feet in height.

“Window film is the best overall protection property owners can have and the only protection that

works year after year, round the clock. When a hurricane hits, families and business owners won’t

have to worry about securing shutters or plywood; they will know their property is protected with

Solar Gard Armorcoat.” explains Lyman McNutt of Solar X of Sarasota, Florida, a window film

dealer with 35 years experience in the business. “Many customers want verification of how

window film will work to protect their homes and families, and Solar Gard delivers this through the

large missile impact certification.”

Solar Gard Armorcoat 8Mil 70 window film offers a comprehensive set of features and benefits:

 

Safety and security – holds shattered glass in place, preventing break-ins or injury and

damage to people and possessions inside.

Outstanding solar performance – blocks 55% of total solar energy, reducing energy

consumption related to cooling

Optically clear–does not affect the appearance of a building inside or out, and allows

maximum natural sunlight through the windows
