SILATEC safety glass keeps not only the burglars outside. But also the harmful UV light. Therefore it protects the valuable exhibits against fading.
For museums:
RC3 to RC6 windows
RC1 windows:
offer hardly any protection
RC2 windows:
offer in most cases hardly any adequate protection
RC3 windows:
Windows are our minimum recommendation for burglary protection in museums. The resistance time with SILATEC P6B glass is about five minutes.
RC4 - RC6 windows:
Windows are our most frequent recommendation for effective burglary protection in museums. The resistance time with SILATEC P8B glass is about ten to twenty minutes.What is the ideal solution for your
safety requirements?
Please, inquire directly.
The large art robberies also show the most frequent weak points: Because safety glass that deserves the name would have prevented priceless damages. For example, it would have prevented the robbery of the Van Gogh painting “The parsonage garden at Nuenen in spring” - in the “Singer Laren” museum near Amsterdam, end of March 2020.
The burglary in the Grünes Gewölbe in Dresden in November 2019 would have never taken place (damage: about one billion Euro!). Entering through the window glass of the Museum of Modern Art in Paris in 2010 would not have happened, and the original paintings of Picasso! Braque! Modigliani! Léger! Matisse! would have stayed where they should be: in the museum.
