20 Increasing need for Security globally Severe Weather Protection More hurricanes, typhoons and tornados +50% strength & length of hurricane in last 30 years New Requirements in Building Codes Man-made security threats Terrorist attacks and civil unrest are on the rise +464% terrorist incidents in last 10 years Need Bullet, Bomb-blast and anti-intrusion solutions 20

21 Interlayers for Extreme Security needs Anti-Intrusion Glazing Security and protection against terrorist attacks, vandalism and thefts Most common standards for security testing and glazing - Anti-Intrusion Glass - Bullet Resistant Glass - Blast-Resistant Glass Ballistic Resistance SentryGlas, Trosifol & Spallshield can meet ballisticsresistance test standards in constructions that are lighterweight, thinner and more durable Used where resistance to bullet penetration and spall is desirable: - Residential buildings - Government/public buildings - Armoured vehicles Blast Performance LSG can be designed for blastresistance, to help let in light & keep out trouble Blast-resistant glazing can be used to reduce the hazards associated with an explosion Add Spallshield CPET for a final layer of ballistic protection 21

22 Bullet Resistant Glass Composite laminates comprised of multiple plies of glass and both PVB and ionoplast interlayers Testing done for most levels of ballistics threats Example of a Bullet Resistant laminated glass construction 22

23 Interlayers for Bomb-blast glazing SentryGlas, Trosifol Arena Blast Test SentryGlas ionoplast interlayer enables improved glazing solutions at both high and intermediate blast threat levels 23

28 What is Structural Glazing? Examples of Structural Glazing Balustrades Overhead Canopies Floors Stairs Large Windows Curtain Walls Kuraray Structural Interlayers SentryGlas ionoplast Trosifol Extra Stiff (ES) PVB 28

29 SentryGlas ionoplast Interlayer 20 years of proven field performance Based on unique ionoplast chemistry no plasticizers Highest level of structural performance of any interlayer over a wide range of temperatures and load durations Reduction of glass weight of up to 50% is possible Excellent post breakage performance up to 50 C High clarity for low iron glass Excellent edge stability - 19 years of natural weather testing in South Florida with zero defects! Excellent sealant compatibility Available in sheet and roll form up to 321 mm wide Thickness range mm to 3.04 mm Available in translucent white 3,000 m 2 Overhead Glazing Apple Flagship Store Shanghai 29

30 Trosifol Extra Stiff (ES) Structural PVB Product properties exceed standard PVB Improved post breakage performance up to 30 C Very high clarity Can be combined with coloured PVB interlayers Good edge stability Available in rolls of 0.76mm thickness up 3210 mm wide Lower cost than ionoplast interlayer 30

31 Overhead Glazing Standard PVB Four point fixed panels prdin broken glazing must resist 100 kg weight for 30 minutes 31

32 Overhead Glazing SentryGlas ionoplast Four point fixed panels prdin broken glazing must resist 100 kg weight for 30 minutes 32
