What characterises the new sedak high-security glass against such ammunition? This ammunition generates an impact energy that is five times higher than that of the highest protection class BR7. The glass therefore offers protection against terrorist attacks with heavy machine guns and opens up new possibilities for architecture and security applications.

How is sedak ballistic glass constructed?
sedak ballistic glass HMG is a specially developed insulating glass that fulfils the highest security requirements. In a time of increasing threats from terrorist attacks, Sedak provides an innovative solution to protect vulnerable people and buildings - without compromising on quality or aesthetics.

The high-performance glass absorbs the energy of hits from heavy machine guns with armour-piercing ammunition (.50 BMG API) - a load that is five times higher than the standard of protection class BR7 (in accordance with EN 1063).
Despite its impressive protective effect, the glass is surprisingly slim with a thickness of only 124 mm (SZR 16 mm) and comparatively light with a weight of 250 kg/sqm.
Where is the high-security glass used?
The new sedak ballistic glass HMG is particularly suitable for use in private buildings that require increased protection, as well as in prestigious properties such as embassies, banks, airports, exclusive residences and public buildings.
