For ultimate protection and security, we supply and install a Glass Anchoring & Edge Retention System. This advanced battening system is designed to maximise the effectiveness of existing filmed glass and frames by preventing the filmed glazing from leaving the frame as and when it breaks.

The edge batten traps the film to the frame, reducing the risk in highly vulnerable areas by not only containing the glass fragments within the frame safely and securely until it can be replaced.

The risks associated with nickel sulphide inclusions in toughened glass mean that a panel could spontaneously break at any time without warning. If this happens in overhead glazing, roof atria, rooflights or curtain walling, the consequences could be dire. Our Glass Anchorage System is the most cost-effective way of preventing glass related injuries and damage.

We have a large range of various edge retention systems depending on glass type, installation, frame type and the level of protection required. For a brochure on the full range, please contact us.
