“Anti-shrapnel curtains instead of a "bunker"? What do they protect against, how much do they cost, and what do physicists say?”
“LIGA.net examines whether curtains really stop shrapnel and how effective such protection is.”
Bronel anti-shrapnel curtains withstand nearly 480 m/s in tests
Key points
- Bronel developed soft catcher curtains with a multi-layer ballistic panel inside.
- Tests reportedly reached 479.67 m/s against a 1.1 g F5 fragment simulator.
- Design aims to protect against glass shards and shrapnel without bunkers.
- Experts note V50 readings and real-world limits; protection is not a bomb shelter.
- Panels are modular, replaceable, and mount on reinforced rails for various buildings.
