Product Details
Activar CPG BRG ballistic-resistant glazing is a laminated glass assembly designed for commercial hollow metal doors and commercial wood doors requiring protection against ballistic impact. Multiple layers of annealed glass bonded with polyvinyl butyral (PVB) interlayers create a strong, clear, and durable glazing assembly capable of resisting various levels of ballistic threats. This glazing is not fire-rated and is intended for applications where security performance is required, including detention facilities, schools, government buildings, and other commercial environments requiring protective glazing in vision lites, sidelites, borrowed lites, and transoms.
