Break
glass in buses is usually made from toughened glass. As the name suggests,
this is very strong - so much so that it is virtually impossible to
break without tools. This renders the emergency equipment it houses
virtually inaccessible and therefore useless.
Safeglass® is formulated so that it can be broken making the equipment
accessible. It can be used for hammer boxes, fire extinguishers and
first aid boxes.
Safeglass® has been given approval for use on PSVs by the Department
of Transport.
