When protection is a primary concern, count on high-performance
Saflex® interlayer for laminated glass.
Exceptional protection for the world's most significant structures.
From I.M. Pei's glass pyramid at the Louvre to Richard Meier's Getty Museum.
From the glass that protects the Mona Lisa to the glass that safeguards America's
Declaration of Independence. Time after time, laminated glass made with Saflex
protective interlayer was the trusted choice. Saflex is a protective polyvinyl
butyral (PVB) plastic based interlayer so tough and resilient, it is recognized
as the world's leading brand.
THE MANY BENEFITS OF SAFLEX PROTECTIVE INTERLAYERS FOR LAMINATED GLASS
Safety The toughness and resiliency of laminated glass makes it an excellent safety glazing. When laminated glass with Saflex protective interlayer is used in glazing design, the risk of injury as a result of flying or falling glass is considerably reduced. (See Profile 5)
Security The remarkable strengths of Saflex protective interlayer resists damage from forced entry or bomb blasts. While glass made with Saflex interlayer may crack from an impact, it won't shatter because the fragments tend to adhere to the protective interlayer. (See Profile 5)
Sound Control The acoustical dampening performance of the interlayer makes laminated glass an effective sound control product. The Saflex interlayer is highly effective in dampening transmitted sounds like those from airplanes, traffic, trains and heavy machinery. (See Profile 6)

Storm Protection Saflex HP and Saflex, in specified configurations, are impact-resistant glass products that can be a critical first line of defense against hurricanes, typhoons and violent storms. Glazing systems made with Saflex HP meet the stringent requirements of wind debris codes and standards. (See Profile 7)
Earthtone and Skytone Color Options With Saflex brand interlayers, color can be added to enhance any project while taking advantage of all of its protective benefits. Saflex can match the colors of glazing tints and films. All while screening out up to 99 percent of damaging UV light, controlling glare and decreasing solar energy transmittance. (See Table II for Saflex Laminated Glass Heat and Light Control Characteristics, see Profile 8 for Color details)
