Safety & Security Glazing
Durable and lightweight polycarbonate security glazing for impact and abrasion resistance
PALRAM offers durable and lightweight polycarbonate security glazing solutions that are resistant to repeated impact and abrasion, while still maintaining visibility. These crack-proof and shatterproof glazing solutions are ideal for environments that are prone to security breaches and violence. In addition, they are available in two product variations to ensure maximum flexibility - PALSUN, which is an impact-resistant material and PALGARD, which is both impact and abrasion-resistant.
Transparent and protective glazing
Some environments require both transparent and protective surfaces. For example schools and bus stations that are often vandalized; bank teller booths and prison interview rooms; homes and businesses in hurricane-prone areas that need to resist strong winds and the impact of debris. These environments require windows that are both transparent for full visibility, but also resistant to safety, security and environmental threats.

Machinery Guards
Machinery Guards
Industrial environments often face potential danger from mechanical impacts. For this reason, PALSUN and PALGARD safety-glazing materials are ideal solutions for these environments. These polycarbonate sheets also offer an added value over traditional solutions as they are resistant to UV radiation and force and retain visibility even after impact. In addition, they can be made even more durable with an optional abrasion-resistant coating. Palram solutions are lightweight and can be fabricated or cold-bent onsite to fit multiple kinds of industrial machinery.
Main Benefits
- High level of impact-resistance
- Blocks harmful UV radiation
- Abrasion-resistant coating (optional)
- Easily cold-bent to fit machine geometry
Riot Shields
Riot Shields
Prison guards, police and special forces require riot shields from materials that withstand impact and still retain visibility. Palram offers polycarbonate materials that have been tested by armed forces around the world. They can take a beating, and are also thermo-formable to whatever shape, dimension and curvature required.
Main Benefits
- High level of impact-resistance
- Low weight
- Thermoformable
Signage
Signage
PALSUN polycarbonate offers an impact-resistant material that withstands vandalism and abuse. This makes it ideal for curved sign faces for bus shelters, street signs and information panels in high-traffic areas. In addition, this solution is thermoformable so sign makers can use it for dimensional signage and channel letters.
Main Benefits
- High level of impact-resistance
- Abrasion-resistant (optional)
- Thermoformable
Automotive
Automotive
Windows for rail cars and public transit areas need to resist standard mechanical stress caused by vibration, as well as abrasion, vandalism and other challenges common to high-traffic areas. PALGARD offers an optically-clear, impact-resistant glazing that stands up to weathering and scratches. It’s light enough to be used without slowing down a mobile rail car, while still complying with various FRA standards.
Main Benefits
- Impact-resistant
- Abrasion-resistant surface resists weathering and scratching
- Complies with various FRA standards
- Low weight - nearly half the weight of glass
- Clear - optical quality
Transparent Security Bars
Transparent Security Bars
PALSUN polycarbonate bars offer subtle protection for home or office window glazing. Installed internally, these bars protect against burglary without blocking the light from entering. This nearly unbreakable material can be easily fabricated onsite, making it a great choice for renovation or new construction.
