WINDOW PROTECTION

Safetydrape®  is a patented drapery system designed to mitigate flying glass shards and debris caused by a bomb blast. The product protects lives by venting intense blast loads while safely capturing deadly flying projectiles. Safetydrape® is also a fire retardant product that meets all NFPA fire codes for window coverings in commercial buildings.

The Safetydrape®  system includes the drape itself, anchorage hardware and a trough which is placed at the sill of the window for holding the additional length of drape necessary for the operation of the system.

The drape is anchored at the head of the window (either inside or outside mount) while remaining unanchored at the sill. Pressure from a blast unfurls the drape from the trough to create an envelope that captures flying debris. Once the blast pressure dissipates, the drape deposits the glass shards and debris on the floor at the base of the window.

Safetydrape® has been subjected to numerous  tests using ANFO, C4 , and dynamite explosive charges. These tests were conducted at numerous standoff distances, with various glass types and charge weights to validate the limits of the product.
