SupaGlass is an optically-clear, high-technology laminate. When retrofitted to the inner surface of a glass pane, the glass becomes highly resistant to common forms of smash and grab, bomb blasts and projectiles. SupaGlass creates an invisible protective layer between passengers and the risk of broken glass.
According to Thatcham, SupaGlass significantly improves the resistance of toughened glass to common methods of attack.
The Clear SupaGlass 300 is the ultimate multi-laminate side impact, safety and security, anti-bandit protection for vehicle windows. The Clear SupaGlass 300 is suitable for those that prefer discreet protection without changing the appearance of the glass.

How Does SupaGlass Work?
SupaGlass has been especially designed to resist vehicle invasion and maintain glazing integrity in the face of violent impact. Because of its strength, it increases the resistance of even toughened glass to breakage.
When the impact on the window is particularly violent, the glass might eventually break, but SupaGlass holds the glass firmly in place, and the window's integrity remains intact.
This results in significantly more effective resistance to forced entry through broken glass by a thief or car-jacker.
