All-round security

For all-round security, you need safety glazing to address more than one potential area of threat to a building. SCHOTT’s specialist safety glass PYRANOVA® secure not only meets the very highest standards in fire-resistant glazing, but also provides outstanding protection against manual impact, burglary threat and even bullets.

Strong, stylish and secure

When protecting people and property, high light transmission is a source of security in itself. Maximizing visibility through a window or door can greatly enhance its safety function, as well as retaining the look of a building. SCHOTT’s NOVOLAY® secure offers outstanding transparency while meeting extremely high attack resistance.
