sedak presents sedak ballistic glass HMG

bulletproof glass 5 times stronger than BR7

sedak, global leader in glass refining, is setting a new benchmark in high-security glass. With sedak ballistic glass HMG (heavy machine gun), the company introduces a groundbreaking innovation: a bulletproof glass tested to withstand attacks with armor-piercing ammunition (.50 BMG API). This ammunition generates an impact energy five times greater than that of the highest protection level BR7. This makes the glass capable of withstanding terrorist attacks involving heavy machine guns, opening up new possibilities for architecture and security applications.

The sedak ballistic glass HMG is a specially developed insulating glass designed to meet the highest security standards. In an era of increasing threats from terrorist attacks, sedak offers an innovative solution for protecting vulnerable individuals and buildings – without compromising on quality or aesthetics.

The high-performance glass absorbs the energy of impacts from heavy machine gun fire with armor-piercing ammunition (.50 BMG API) – a stress level that exceeds the BR7 protection standard (as per EN 1063) by a factor of five. Despite its impressive protective performance, the glass is remarkably slim at just 124 mm thick (SZR 16 mm) and comparatively lightweight at 250 kg/m².

Thanks to its unique combination of extreme security and premium optical quality, sedak ballistic glass HMG is ideal for applications requiring heightened protection. Key areas of use include:

  • Private buildings and exclusive residences
  • Representative structures such as embassies and banks
  • Security zones in airports and public buildings

This innovation combines the highest security standards with sophisticated aesthetics, setting new benchmarks for advanced architectural solutions.
