Maximum security achievable by retrofitting

Makrolon Hygard MS 1250 offers maximum protection against ballistic impact and forced entry.

Special security is required in many buildings such as government offices, consulates, embassies, and detention facilities, as well as banks, museums, retail shops, and the residences of public figures subject to special risks.

The high-quality sheets of the Makrolon Hygard series from Bayer Sheet Europe provide optimal protection through security glazing.

The sheets are available in a range of impact-resistant and bulletproof variants.

The new Makrolon Hygard MS 1250 is a bulletproof sheet that can withstand even heavy ballistic attacks with automatic firearms.

The Makrolon Hygard MS 1250 sheets meet the requirements of PM4-NS, which is the highest resistance class for polycarbonate sheets under the European security standard PM 20001.

Makrolon Hygard MS 1250 also meets the European security standard EN 1063/BR4-NS2 for high-security glass glazing.

Security by retrofitting.

The polycarbonate sheets demonstrate their benefits especially in the retrofitting of existing buildings to optimize security.

Makrolon Hygard makes it possible to protect windows in an easy and discreet manner against dangers from the outside.

Weighing 40 kilograms per sqm, Makrolon Hygard MS 1250 weighs half of a comparable glass glazing sheet.

No heavy equipment (such as a crane or lifting platform) is needed for installation.

The sheets can be sawed, drilled, or milled, which makes it possible to process them easily and quickly on site, and less like likely to be noticed by passers-by.

Thanks to their light weight, the sheets do not create structural problems and do not require additional construction measures.

All that is needed is a new framework in which to fit the new polycarbonate sheets.

Makrolon Hygard MS 1250 has short delivery times.
