The UK Accreditation Service has given their ‘tick’ of approval to the unique PWS Ballistic Screen System for use under the EN1522/23 European Standard.
Manufactured by PWS the PWS Ballistic Screen System is designed to be a free standing, rapid deployment system with the flexibility to create ballistic walls, turrets and rooms to protect people, places and assets.
The new ballistic system performed perfectly under test conditions, taking direct hits to the glass and brackets as well as angled shots that are designed to identify the systems weaknesses. None were found and the new system passed with flying colours.
The test rated the system to FB3 resisting attack from 9mm and point 357 calibre ammunition. This was the first test in a series designed to obtain full accreditation across all ballistic standards from FB3 through to FB6. This will make the system unique as the ‘only rapid deployment free standing ballistic system’ with full UKAS approval.
Chris Gould, Commercial Director of Protective Window Solutions Ltd said ‘We are delighted to have our product tested and underwritten by UKAS. It is a very important standard to achieve and gives potential customers of our ballistic screen product the confidence that we can do exactly what we say on the packet, protecting people, places and assets’

PWS Ballistic Screens Unveiled at the Policing and Security Show
London; 1st February, 2017
Protective Window Solutions Ltd announced today their attendance at the forthcoming Policing and Security Show taking place at Farnborough International Conference Centre from 7th to the 9th March.
The PWS Ballistic Screen System is the only rapid deployment, transparent ballistic protection system available on the market today. It uses specially moulded brackets set at different angles to create walls, turrets, and rooms; in fact you can create whatever you need to defend yourself, your staff, your business or your community.
The product is perfect for presenting at the show with many applications that are relevant to the policing community either to be used directly by the forces or for Counter Terrorism Security Advisors to highlight the potential uses of the product to local government or the business community.
The show is the first time the unique system will be presented to potential customers after the product achieved UKAS Certification to BR3 with further testing to BR4, 5 and 6 already in the pipeline.
Protective Window Solutions believe they have a completely unique product which is suitable for use in a wide range of situations; at major events, for VIP Visits, within Transport Hubs, Government Buildings, or to break-up open or crowded spaces.
The system is completely adaptable to customer specific applications and is capable of being used inside or out, dismantled, stored and re-assembled quickly and easily. No other system can be deployed so rapidly or is capable of standing alone without any floor or wall fixings.
PWS present their much awaited Ballistic Screen System in conjunction with Hamilton Erskine who supply the long established ‘Tecdur’ ballistic glass as part of the system.
