Can companies withstand the impact of the next terrorist attack?
Chesham, Bucks, 27th February 2006, Pentagon
Protection Plc, the global specialist leader in
performance window film protection expressed severe
concerns that companies are still not taking terrorist
bombings seriously. Recommendations from the home office
to install safety film to maximise
resilience for future attacks is still being ignored.
Recent events have proved that terrorists will attack
anywhere. Businesses have a responsibility to their
staff and premises to ensure that security is a priority
within their organisations and that they are protected
against the likely impact of a terrorist attack. An
explosion can within seconds see
windows and equipment destroyed and people injured by
the main cause of flying glass.
By fitting the Pentagon Elite Flexible Anchoring and the
Select Metal Anchoring systems to filmed glazing, it
holds the shattered glass in place, thus saving lives,
preventing injury and protecting property.
Pentagon Protection Plc were one of the first companies
to successfully undertake bomb blast testing to explode
loads of 8.3psi, almost double the blast loading of any
other testing carried out to date to meet the latest
criteria set in International Standard for glass in
building explosion resistant security glazing. Results
showed that the Pentagon Select Metal and Elite flexible
anchoring systems in conjunction with Pentagon's FT800
window film retained 95% of all glass fragments.
Graham Bannerman, CEO of Pentagon Protection Plc
commented "More businesses must realise the impact a
terrorist attack could have on their business. Not only
is it irresponsible not to protect staff and property,
but the recovery from the effects of a terrorist attack
could badly affect the future of a
company and potentially put them out of business."
