South Star is certified up to P8B for anti burglary resistance and BR6 for ballistic protection under EN 356, the European standard governing security glazing. These top tier classifications demonstrate the company’s ability to deliver glass that performs reliably under extreme conditions, meeting the expectations of global brands and international project specifications. Such certifications are not only technical benchmarks but also a reassurance to architects, contractors, and end users that South Star’s products meet rigorous safety and durability requirements.
Across the world, South Star’s security glass has been installed in numerous luxury brand name shopfronts and flagship façades, where both protection and visual clarity are essential. Luxury retailers rely on high performance glazing to safeguard merchandise while maintaining an inviting, transparent storefront that reflects their brand identity.
What sets South Star apart is its wide processing capability, enabling the production of security grade flat and curved insulating glass units (IGUs). This flexibility allows designers to combine high protection levels with complex geometries, large formats, and energy efficient assemblies. A notable example is the Hermès Beijing flagship store, where South Star supplied security rated special curved profile IGUs that meet stringent performance requirements without compromising architectural elegance.
