GGF Launches New Safety
and Security Glazing Good
Practice Guide
The Glass and Glazing Federation has recently launched a new
publication entitled, “Safety and Security Glazing – Good Practice Guide”.
The new guide covers
the use of safety and
security glass and glazing in buildings including not just windows,
doors and curtain
walling but also interiors such as shower
enclosures and elevator enclosures.
‘This guide plugs
a huge gap in
current industry
information
on safety &
security glazing’
The guide also details the
key performances of safety
and security glazing when
subject to manual, ballistic and explosive attacks.
Other areas concerning the
safety of persons such as
overhead glazing, protective
glass barriers, glass stairs
and floors are also comprehensively covered.
Effectively bringing all
the key information on
safety and security glazing
into one publication, the
guide is primarily aimed at
informing architects, specifiers, building planners,
surveyors and building
managers.
