PALGARD AR

PALGARD AR features an advanced surface coating that provides abrasion and chemical resistance, which means that it remains pristine in applications with high levels of wear and tear such as architectural glazing, public space installations, manufacturing environments, highway sound barriers and more.

PALGARD AR is also ideal for protective shielding or safety glazing for machinery, exhibits or displays; and can be used in vehicular glazing, for example in side or rear windows and windshields on ATVs, golf carts or other vehicles. PALGARD AR can also be used for glass-laminated ballistic applications.

PALSHIELD

The PALSHIELD ballistic polycarbonate product line is available with different levels of ballistics and forced-entry protection to meet a variety of application needs. Due to their layered, laminated structure, PALSHIELD sheets can withstand both physical attacks and multi-shot ballistic assaults by absorbing impact energy without shattering or spalling. PALSHIELD also features an abrasion-resistant coating, which ensures long-term clarity for applications in accessible public areas. Note that the information listed on the PALSHIELD sales sheet represents the Palram products that meet or exceed the various testing standards at the time of its printing.
