Safety & Security > Products > FrameGard™
The Madico FrameGARD™ Anchoring System has been designed to prevent filmed glass from erupting from its window frame under blast load conditions. Madico FrameGARD™ improves and extends the principle of edge battening by incorporating a specific movement zone (Patent applies) which allows the film to move under applied load without putting excessive force onto the fixings and frame. The movement zone (+), (indicated on Step 2 and 3 of Example B) absorbs a high degree of the impact energy before loads are distributed to the Madico FrameGARD™ profile and window frame. The Madico FrameGARD™ Anchoring System significantly improves the performance of security window film against blast pressure and body impact loads when compared with traditional daylight film applications.

Madico FrameGARD™ also improves the performance of security window film against burglary. In "daylight" applications it is possible to attack the untreated edge of the window, levering the glass out of the frame.

Multinational corporations and foreign governments use the Madico FrameGARD™ Anchoring System coupled with security window film to improve safety and security.
