Hurricane-Rated Systems
DuPont™ SentryGlas® helped rewrite building codes in storm zones, by raising protection in glass to a new level.
The effects are now being felt worldwide as super-tough impact windows and stiffer, stronger glass envelopes are being used to make buildings safer against threats of hurricanes, cyclones or other severe wind and weather.
One of the earliest installations of hurricane-resistant DuPont™ SentryGlas® was at the Broward Center for the Peforming Arts in Fort Lauderdale, Florida (see story below). The stiffer interlayer also contributes to low-deflection glass, ideal for cost-effective "dry glazing" in hurricane zones.
Explore a wide range of windows, doors and glazing systems that use SentryGlas® to meet Miami-Dade tests standards for glass impact and post-break strength.
