Thompson Glass offers customers throughout North America a new line of safety glass products.

Thompson Glass, an ISO 9001:2015 (Quality Management System) certified industry leader in advanced glass and lamination technologies, offers customers throughout North America a new line of safety glass products. The Defender glass series offers many choices and eliminates specific threats. Defender’s forced-entry protection products have been tested to withstand extensive physical attacks.

Several Defender products also offer different levels of bullet resistance (BR). The Defender BR-rated products are certified through third-party testing to meet and exceed industry standard UL safety code requirements for those levels.

Benefits of Defender glass:

  • Provides time for occupants to react and first responders to arrive
  • Increases feeling of safety and mental well-being of building occupants
  • Offers the same aesthetics as regular insulated glass
  • Allows damaged glass to be replaced at your convenience as it remains functional
  • Reduces sound transmission
  • Provides immediate safety
  • Deters criminals after initial attempt at impact
  • Adds additional benefit of severe weather protection when used as exterior application

Defender glass products offer a clear view of the outside while protecting those inside.
