Safety and security window film can help hold broken glass together after an impact, reducing loose fragments and adding a layer of protection for homes and businesses. Its suitability depends on the existing glazing and the installation design. It cannot guarantee protection against entry or injury.

Security film can help keep glass fragments together when a pane breaks. That may reduce loose glass and make a damaged opening harder to pass through, but the result depends on the glazing and installation. It is one part of a property's wider safety and security plan, with no guarantee against entry or injury.
