Added protection against vandalism
The laminated construction increases resistance to impact and attempts to break the glazing.
Octoguard®
Octoguard® impact-resistant laminated glass for architecture and vehicles — the protective barrier remains after impact. After damage, fragments stay held by the polymer interlayer, and the pane keeps covering the opening and slows rapid intrusion. The line covers tasks from storefronts and entrances to automotive side glazing. Construction and protection level are selected for the site, operating conditions, and the most likely risks.
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
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.

- Public and transport spaces
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 intrusionThe laminated construction adds a barrier when someone tries to break the glass and reach the vehicle.
- Holds fragments after damageThe polymer interlayer binds glass fragments and keeps them from flying freely through the cabin.
- Extra protection from stones and other objects while drivingThe construction helps reduce the risk of glazing damage from stones and other objects while the vehicle is moving.
- Improves safety in a crashFragment retention helps reduce the risk of cuts and other injuries to the driver and passengers.
- Keeps the window opening coveredEven after damage, the glass stays in the opening longer, keeping extra cabin protection.
- Improves acoustic comfortThe laminated construction adds noise insulation without harming transparency or the vehicle’s appearance.
- Made to OEM glass geometryOctoguard® 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.
