3 Reasons to Consider Blast-Resistant Glass

May 25, 2023

When an explosion occurs, the blast may send out powerful waves which can damage buildings in a large radius around the source. There are various environments where explosions can occur, such as laboratories or petrochemical facilities. According to the United Nations Department of Safety and Security, structural and other material fragmentation is the primary cause of casualties from explosives. The damage that unprotected windows experience from blasts can leave your business or building in need of significant repairs and cleanup. If you're wondering whether you should install blast-resistant glass, then here are three reasons to consider.



1. Protects Lives, Property, and Equipment


Blast-resistant glass is built to withstand the devastating damage that occurs as a result of an explosion. That means the people, assets, equipment, and any property inside the building are protected from damage. In a laboratory, this may include the scientists, their equipment, and anyone else in the building. Consequently, you won't need to spend money repairing or replacing your property, and you won't have to pay anyone's medical bills. The level of damage, however, depends on the building's proximity to the explosion and the severity of the blast.



2. Promotes Peace of Mind


When there are minimal risks to human life, property owners can know that people are safe on their property. When an explosion occurs, there could be several fatalities and an investigation may take place to determine who was at fault. The families of the injured may also want to know what the management did or would have done to protect their loved ones. You could be held liable for the injuries and damages caused.



3. Reduces Damage and Wasted Time After a Blast


Explosion damage is not easy to deal with. It can cost significant financial and structural losses, which can take many years to recover from or repair. If it's a company without blast-resistant glass, there's a good likelihood that equipment, devices, and property in close proximity to the glass will get damaged, too. The amount of time spent investigating and repairing the building will also impact future income.


The modern world requires
blast-resistant glass in certain buildings, such as laboratories, military installations, and others. This type of glass is an important building component because it offers protection from several dangers. For more information about this protective glass, contact Bryans Road Doors & Glass LLC today. We look forward to hearing from you and helping you improve your property's safety.
