Bullet-resistant glass is basically produced using ballistic materials such as polycarbonate, glass-clad polycarbonate, acrylic, and thermoplastics that can withstand any damage caused by small projectiles and bullets. Bullet-resistant glass is available in varying thicknesses according to end-user demand. End-users of bulletproof security glass mainly include the financial services industry, construction industry, automotive industry, and others such as the marine industry & aerospace industry. A typical bulletproof glass consists of various layers of thermoplastics & laminated glasses, which are further layered together to form a thick bulletproof glass. On the stroke of a bullet, these glasses can handle the pressure very easily pertaining to the pressure created by the bullet on the glass. Due to such advanced features, these bulletproof glasses are quite a preferred choice in military bases and other armored vehicles in huge numbers.
MARKET DYNAMICS
The bullet-resistant glass market has witnessed a significant growth owing to factors such as wider application in defense & VIP vehicles, cash-in-transit vehicles, commercial buildings, government & law enforcement, ATM booths & teller stations, and others. Increasing economic output, along with defense investments, as well as the growth of construction, financial, and automotive sectors, are factors expected to significantly impact the growth of the bullet-resistant glass market. Furthermore, rising concerns regarding public safety and security and rising applications of these glasses will emerge as the major driving forces. However, the failure of locally manufactured bullet-resistant glass to meet international quality standards, high costs of raw materials, and low-cost imports from China are factors anticipated to adversely hamper the growth of the market. Nevertheless, ongoing infrastructural developments in the financial sector offer various opportunities for bullet-resistant glass manufacturers, as financial institutions, especially in rural areas, are vulnerable to burglary and vandalism.
