Bullet Resistant Acrylic offers a lightweight, crystal clear, non-laminated alternative for your protective barrier designs. It’s half the weight of bullet-resistant glass of the same UL class rating and meets UL 752 Level I, II, and III requirements for use in bullet-resistant applications involving small firearms. It is also available with an abrasion-resistant coating and offers 40 times better abrasion resistance of uncoated acrylic. All levels meet Federal Specification L.P. 391D and ASTM D 4802. Despite all of the improvements in security technology, bullet-resistant barriers have been proven to be the only measure that deters crime before it happens. This is especially important considering there is approximately one convenience store robbery for every two convenience stores in the U.S. and that bank robberies have increased by 136 times in the past 50 years.
Bullet-resistant acrylic does not require laminating to have the same level of protection as polycarbonate. Without lamination, bullet-resistant acrylic plexiglass is half the weight of glass laminates with the same UL ratings and allows for better optical clarity. Acrylic is also more resistant to hazing, discoloration, and degradation from the sun for excellent light transmission.
