Architecture

Anti-vandal glass for architecture

Glazing that keeps a protective barrier after impact.

Architectural Octoguard is impact-resistant laminated glass for sites with higher security requirements.

When damaged, ordinary glass can fall out and open access into the room. In an Octoguard construction, fragments are held by the polymer interlayer, and the damaged pane keeps covering the opening and slows rapid intrusion.

The solution helps protect people, property, storefronts, and interior spaces while keeping glazing transparent and contemporary in appearance.

What architectural Octoguard provides

Added protection against vandalism

The laminated construction increases resistance to impact and attempts to break the glazing.

Slows rapid intrusion

Even after damage, the glass keeps a barrier between the street and the protected space.

Fragment retention

The polymer interlayer binds fragments and keeps them from flying freely, reducing injury risk.

Opening coverage retained

The glass helps keep the building’s protective envelope intact longer after impact.

Security without visual bulk

Octoguard strengthens site protection without grilles, heavy screens, or other elements that disrupt the architectural concept.

Made for the project

Glass size, shape, and construction are selected for the opening, facade system, and expected operating loads.

Where architectural Octoguard is used

  • Building entrances
  • Shop and boutique storefronts
  • Ground floors of residential and commercial buildings
  • Banking and cashier areas
  • Office and interior partitions
  • Secured rooms
  • Reception and client areas
  • Sites with elevated vandalism risk
  • Public and transport spaces

Protection as part of architecture

Octoguard fits projects where security must not conflict with transparency, light, and aesthetics. The glass can be adapted to the visual concept and used within a full architectural glazing package.

Automotive

Anti-vandal automotive glass

Added protection against impact and intrusion.

Octoguard is a line of impact-resistant laminated glazing made to improve vehicle safety, protect against shards, and slow rapid cabin intrusion.

Ordinary side glass can fall completely out of the opening after a hard impact. In an Octoguard construction, fragments stay bonded by the polymer interlayer, and the damaged pane keeps covering the window opening.

That gives the owner and passengers extra time and reduces the risk of injury from shards.

What Octoguard anti-vandal glass provides

Slows rapid cabin intrusion

The laminated construction adds a barrier when someone tries to break the glass and reach the vehicle.

Holds fragments after damage

The polymer interlayer binds glass fragments and keeps them from flying freely through the cabin.

Improves safety in a crash

Fragment retention helps reduce the risk of cuts and other injuries to the driver and passengers.

Keeps the window opening covered

Even after damage, the glass stays in the opening longer, keeping extra cabin protection.

Improves acoustic comfort

The laminated construction adds noise insulation without harming transparency or the vehicle’s appearance.

Made to OEM glass geometry

Octoguard is produced to the geometry of original glazing for various vehicle makes and models.

Three Octoguard protection levels

The protection level is selected for the vehicle, operating conditions, and the most likely risks.

Essential safety

Octoguard Basic

Two-layer glass with a dedicated polymer interlayer for everyday use.

  • Retains fragments if the glass breaks
  • Helps protect against flying shards in a crash
  • Improves noise insulation
  • Suitable as an OEM glass replacement when higher safety is needed

A practical option for mass-market vehicles.

Balance of protection and cost

Octoguard Simple

Multilayer triplex with a reinforced polymer interlayer.

  • Higher resistance to stone and hard-object impacts
  • Holds shape better after damage
  • Increased residual stiffness
  • Resistant to delamination and clouding

Fits business- and premium-class cars, taxis, fleet vehicles, and use where vandalism risk is higher.

Maximum anti-vandal protection

Octoguard Ultra

Reinforced multilayer triplex with chemical strengthening of both glass layers.

  • Designed for intense impacts from hammers, bats, and metal objects
  • Keeps the window opening covered after damage
  • Slows rapid access to the cabin
  • Highest residual stiffness in the range
  • Resistant to moisture, delamination, clouding, and yellowing
  • Provides increased noise insulation

For VIP cars, executive fleet vehicles, premium and representative-class cars, and security-service transport.

For one client the priority is safe fragment retention; for another, protection from road stones; for a third, maximum resistance to intrusion attempts. Octoglass specialists will help choose a suitable construction and check whether glass can be made for a specific vehicle.
