Before making your purchase, here is an overview of safety window films to guide you.

Window Safety Film – Category Overview

Translucent windows, doors, walls or gates fall under the Regulation 14 of the The Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992.

The regulations state that applicable surfaces must be made of safety material, or be protected against breakage of the transparent or translucent material. In addition, the surfaces must be appropriately marked or incorporate features to make them apparent.

Safety window film is one of the best ways to make a translucent glass surface more visible. The alternative is to replace the glass itself, which is costly and furthermore, is not always necessary since a window film can often bring the glass up to the required standards. 


As a homeowner, architect or anyone responsible for improving the safety of glass, you should consult the required safety standards first. From there, it will then be possible to choose the most appropriate safety film which conforms to these requirements, standards or regulations.

What Are Safety Window Films?

Simply put, safety window films can be applied to various glass surfaces to improve safety standards. That?s because glass can be a hazard, especially due to impact or if the glass shatters. 

Depending on the window film selected, it may have properties applied which offer protection from various threats such as shatter resistance, strength enhancement, bird safety, UV protection, heat and glare reduction and improved privacy. 

Examples of standards applied to safety window films can include ANSI Z97.1-1984

16 CFR 1201 U.S.G.S. Category 1: Break Strength 100PLI CPSC 16 CFR 1201, BS 6206,

JIS A5759 and GB 9962-88.

How Do I Stop Birds From Flying Into My Windows?

Glass films stock a variety of bird safety films which can be applied to your windows to stop birds flying into them. So-called bird strikes are a common issue in residential and commercial properties alike, and can cause serious injury to birds as well as damage to the window glass. However, the patterns on the window film apply a design to the window glass to help birds to see the obstruction ahead, thus helping to prevent birds from flying directly into the glass.

Why Do Birds Fly Into Glass?

Quite simply, clear window glass often means that birds cannot detect there is going to be an obstruction in their path. Therefore, they fly into the window because they expect to be able to keep flying, not realising the glass window will prevent them from doing so. It is for this reason that bird safety window film is used.

Tempered glass (also known as toughened glass) is covered by the British Standard BS EN 12150. When broken, tempered glass breaks into small fragments with dulled edges to reduce the chance that someone may be injured. It is a requirement to use tempered glass wherever there is a possibility of human impact.
