Bullet-resistant glass BR4-NS/BR6-NS

Bullet-resistant safety glass BR4-NS/BR6-NS - Hammerglass

In an increasingly violent world, where shootings, terrorist attacks, vandalism, and break-ins are part of everyday life, the demand for modern protective products is rising. The ballistic protection offered by Hammerglass includes unique, lightweight bullet-resistant solutions in the higher protection classes BR4-NS and BR6-NS (No Splinter), where laminated glass panes are combined with a Hammerglass pane to achieve the lowest possible weight and thickness. With our many years of experience and extensive knowledge, we actively develop personal protective equipment for high-risk targets in national and local authorities, in industry and commerce, as well as for private individuals. Our shatterproof solutions are ideally suited for the protection of premises where threats may arise: foreign embassies, national and local government offices, banks, media companies, VIP residences, military facilities, nuclear power plants, etc.

Same protection - lower thickness - lower weight

Bulletproof or ballistic glass is available in various thicknesses, depending on the desired level of protection. Hammerglass's ballistic glass solution consists of a series of glass panes laminated together with a Hammerglass film. This shatterproof solution is thinner and weighs significantly less than comparable pure glass solutions, which proves to be a great advantage in many situations - not least with sliding and hinged doors.

A BR6-NS glazing solution that consists solely of glass is 63 mm thick and weighs almost 160 kg/m².By using Hammerglass in the package, the thickness is reduced to 39 mm and the weight to 90 kg/m². The installation of Hammerglass in bulletproof, reinforced partitions made of stainless steel (security classes FB4 and FB6, EN 1522) provides complete protection against ballistic attacks. The ballistic resistance applies to both the glass and the corresponding frame.

Classification of bulletproof glass

Bullet-resistant glass is certified according to the European standard EN 1063. The various levels of protection are indicated by classes BR1 to BR7, with BR1 being the lowest and BR7 the highest protection class. The most common protection classes are BR4 and BR6. The ballistic glass solutions from Hammerglass have been tested by the ballistic testing facility in Ulm, Germany, and certified as compliant with protection classes BR4-NS and BR6-NS.
