Minimize Windstorm Damage
Mitigate Damage from Windstorms with 3M Window Film
The Threat of Windstorms to Your Windows
Window glass is easily broken, especially during high winds when debris can strike at high speeds. That is one of the reasons people are advised to stay away from windows or seek shelter in basements during severe storms.
When glass breaks, it creates multiple hazards. It can send sharp fragments into the space at high velocity and removes the barrier between the interior and outside conditions.
3M Safety & Security Window Film with Impact Protection Attachment Systems helps address these risks by:
- Reducing the risk of injury from flying or shattered glass
- Keeping glass fragments contained instead of scattering into the space
- Maintaining a temporary barrier after breakage
- Limiting the spread of debris inside the building
Is There Such a Thing as Hurricane Window Film?
Many people search for "hurricane window film" when looking for ways to protect their property. It is important to understand what window film can and cannot do.
Safety and security window film is not hurricane proof and does not prevent windows from breaking during a hurricane or severe windstorm. It is not a replacement for impact-rated hurricane windows or shutters.
What it can do is help hold shattered glass in place, reducing the risk of flying shards and helping protect people inside.
