Developed for security purposes,
3M Scotchshield was invented to protect
American personnel & facilities from terrorist
attacks and bomb explosions in Iran &
Belfast. It has most recently been installed on
the Ronald Reagan airport, Chicago's O'Hare
airport, Miami's Metro Dade Courthouse, the
Federal Reserve and the F.B.I. Headquarters
in Washington D.C. Because of the tough
performance & success of this product, it was
further developed for residential & commercial
markets that were concerned with hurricane &
vandalism protection.
This unique 3M-patented product represents a weave, which runs throughout the polyester,
making it puncture & tear resistant.
Protecting your windows is perhaps one of the most important factors in securing your home
or office in a hurricane. Since Hurricane Andrew, many of South Florida's building codes
have been changed to emphasize stronger structures and impact resistant windows. The
glass in any building is the weakest point of the structure. It is of the utmost importance to
secure these areas effectively. During Hurricane Andrew, many homes sustained severe roof
damage primarily because the windows did not stay intact. 3MÂ Scotchshield helps maintain
the integrity of the buildings outer shell to help keep wind, rain, and flying glass shards from
wreaking havoc inside the building.
