The ASTM F3561 standard (Standard Test Method for Forced-Entry Resistance of Fenestration Systems After Simulated Active Shooter Attack) is the latest testing protocol for evaluating security window film systems against forced entry and impact scenarios. RiotLite excelled, demonstrating unmatched strength and durability in holding single pane, 1/4” (6mm) tempered glass together and delaying unauthorized entry. This achievement is critical for school administrators seeking advanced solutions to protect campuses from modern threats, including active shooter attacks on standard window and door glass types.

“RiotLite represents a breakthrough in safety glazing innovation,” said Mark Mineer, President of Impact Security. By meeting ASTM F3561 standards at Level 3, we’ve proven that RiotLite is a game-changing solution to help school officials protect the most common access points—ground-level windows, entryways, and glass doors. This technology allows the critical time for occupants to take protective measures and for first responders to intervene.”
