Blast Performance

Bomb resistant, blast resistant, anti-terrorist, security enhancement – there is a vast range of expressions used – but it all boils down to the same thing; how to protect buildings without making them look like a concrete bunker.

The Wrightstyle system is designed to withstand the blast pressure, whilst still retaining the glass within the framing profiles, and therefore preventing the type of injuries associated with flying glass.

This system is particularly versatile, accommodating high performance anti-spall glasses up to a thickness of 100mm, whilst still maintaining slim aesthetically pleasing sight lines. In addition, the basic visual arrangement remains the same, irrespective of the specification mix required.

“Our comprehensive range of primary steel glazing systems are designed to counter the specific threats of fire, smoke, ballistic or blast attack. We have pushed the boundaries of what glazed elements can achieve safely and cost-effectively – and therefore the kind of building facades that architects are now able to design.” Denis Wright – MD
