With countries across the world warning of the risks of blast at any moment, business and house owners should be regarding safety as an issue they cannot afford to take lightly.

Injuries by flying glass:
-90 percent of injuries are caused by flying glass, rather than the blast itself.
-It is vital, therefore, that steps be taken to ensure that glass windows, partitions and walls are sufficiently protected.
-Glass particles can travel at speeds of up to 150 mph.
A 400 metres away blast, glass from a broken window can hit a wall, 5 metres away, at a speed of 75 metres per second. In this scenario, glass particles of any size, even from strengthened windows that are designed to shatter into small pieces, are unquestionably lethal.
