Folienwerk Wolfen has achieved a significant breakthrough in glass safety with its 44.2 laminated glass featuring the advanced evguard® interlayer. Recently tested under the stringent DIN EN 13501-1 standard, the product earned a B-s1-d0 classification, an impressive rating indicating excellent fire resistance, very low smoke emission, and zero flaming droplets. Complementary tests under DIN EN ISO 11925 and the DIN EN 13823 (SBI) protocol confirmed no ignition and no after-burning, solidifying its position as a high-performing, safety-first solution in architectural glass applications.

Engineered for Performance
The evguard® interlayer, crafted from high-quality raw materials, is engineered to perform across multiple dimensions. Beyond fire protection, the laminated glass offers outstanding impact resistance, acoustic insulation, weather durability, and even saltwater resistance, making it highly suitable for demanding environments, from coastal structures to high-traffic public buildings. Its compliance with DIBt approval and the Miami-Dade checklist #0445 further underscores its robustness in both European and U.S. markets.

Designed for Demanding Applications
evguard® isn’t just a fire-rated product, it’s a multifunctional interlayer trusted across industries with stringent performance and hygiene demands. With a strong presence in sectors such as medical, pharmaceutical, automotive, and food production, Folienwerk Wolfen demonstrates how advanced glass solutions can meet both technical and regulatory challenges. The product’s resistance to chemical exposure and microbial contamination makes it ideal for sterile and controlled environments.

A Leader in Laminated Glass Innovation
This certification milestone reflects Folienwerk Wolfen’s ongoing commitment to innovation and safety in the glass industry. By aligning cutting-edge materials science with regulatory compliance, the company continues to redefine what laminated safety glass can achieve, bridging architectural design with essential performance standards.
