ACE/Security Laminates All About ACEGo to Index < Previous Next >

ACE/Security Laminates Inc. (here-inafter “ACE or Advanced CoatingsEngineering”) started operations inOttawa in 1993 with the principle goal ofbecoming the dominant brand in safetyand security laminates. Now a Publiclyheld and traded company since itsinception of May 2004, ACE intends tomeet this objective by capitalizing onthe Company's two competitive advan-tages:

(i) technological superiority of theCompany's products as proven by inde-pendent third-party testing; and (ii)unique, multi-faceted marketing andsales methodologies aimed at buildingbrand awareness in both the consumerand government marketplaces.

Glass laminate products are generallydivided into two categories: safety filmsand laminates, which typically range inthickness from 5 to 8 mils; and securitylaminates being 8 mils in thickness orgreater. ACE currently offers tested andcertified safety and security productsranging from 5 to 20 mils through their“100”, “200”, “300” and “400” Series.ACE's product advantage lies in its pro-

prietary adhesion process, a processthat results in better blast absorption(by the adhesive itself) while enablingthe bonding of multiple layers of films(creating a stronger product).

Government and government agencieshave been, historically, the dominantbuyer of safety and security laminatesand hence all laminate manufacturersaggressively compete in this space. Inrecent months, the impetus of govern-mental actors has shifted from relyingon the multinational manufacturers todictate national standards to settingstandards that can protect against therealities of modern day security threats.The best way for a manufacturer to gainvisibility in this marketplace is to pro-vide the safest and strongest testedproduct on the market. ACE's “400”Series laminate offers the highest testedlevel of protection - whereas competi-tors laminates are capable of withstand-ing a 500 lb. bomb from 184 feet, the“400” Series laminate can withstand a2500 lb. bomb detonated from 184 feet!In addition to the successful test results,ACE has recently become an approvedvendor by the US General Services

Administration, enabling ACE to selldirectly to US federal government agen-cies.

All of the laminate manufacturers sellto consumers and corporate clientsindirectly through third-party windowtinting companies as well as glass man-ufacturers and retailers. The problemswith these sales channels are: (i) glassmanufacturers and retailers are moreinterested in pushing their own higher-margined competitive products; and (ii)consumers expect “expert” installationgiven that the product is meant to pro-tect their family and property - nobodywants the guy who put the tint on theircar to install their security laminate athome.

The laminate manufacturers have large-ly ignored the consumer and corporatelaminate marketplaces, as they are, forthe most part, large multinationals thatcan only support bulk-order purchasesdue to the administrative burden ofservicing consumers individually (i.e.3M). ACE has been actively pursuing

the largely untapped consumer andcommercial markets by selling to thismarket through its growing dealershipnetwork. ACE currently has over 65active dealers worldwide whose solefocus is to market, sell, install and war-rant ACE products door-to-door withintheir territories. By effectively expand-ing the ACE brand, ACE will be able toessentially develop the consumer mar-ket for these products.

The Company plans to grow to over1,000 international dealers/franchiseesover the next three to five years. Hereinlies ACE's market advantage - being thefirst to effectively bring safety and secu-rity laminates to the mass marketsdirectly. An aggressive North AmericanPR campaign and savvy advertising arecontinuously feeding and supportingthe dealership network.

The following identifies the key man-agement team along with a briefdescription of their principal duties and/ or responsibilities.

In the last 10 years, government offi-cials worldwide have had to face thereality of a growing threat to nationalsecurity. The World Trade Centerbombing in New York City and thebombing of the A.P. Murray building inOklahoma City brought to our doorstepthe reality of how vulnerable we can be.Flying glass from buildings as far awayas 10 city blocks hurt many of the morethan 500 people injured in OklahomaCity. In the bombing of a military build-ing in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia, many ofthe 19 service men killed were hit by fly-ing glass. In Kenya, the AmericanEmbassy was the target and some 5,000

people were injured or killed includingmany by flying glass.

To reduce the window glass fragmenthazard generated by a blast, severaltechnologies have emerged, includingsafety window films, and multi-layeredsafety films referred to as security lami-nates, blast curtains, and laminatedglass, etc. Safety and security films areapplied to the inside surface of a win-dow. Blast testing has demonstratedthat safety and security films can be aneffective way to reduce hazards fromflying glass during an explosion.

The US$100 billion global securityindustry is comprised of manufacturersof security products (US$30 billion) andproviders of specialized security servic-es (US$70 billion). While the overallindustry is anticipated to maintain his-torical growth rates of 7% for the nextdecade, certain sectors, such as physicalsecurity products, are projected toexpand at annual rates in excess of 30%.Both security products and services seg-ments remain highly fragmented evenin the midst of continuing consolida-tion. Key security industry driversinclude: growing public concern aboutterrorism, fear of crime amidst increas-ingly random and violent attacks,expanding global reach of US corpora-tions into less stable geographicregions, and increasing economic lossesfrom crime and fraud.

As can be seen from the above chart,physical security products are currentlya $7 billion market. This segment isdefined as products used to physicallyprotect and prevent individuals andproperty from harm and includes blastresistant glass and laminates. The over-all segment is very fragmented, withmost participants generating less thanUS$20 million in annual revenue.Historically, the security products seg-ment has experienced high single-digitgrowth (7-9%). However, given theevents of September 11th, demand forthese products in both the near andlong term, will be much higher. MorganKeegan estimates that annual growthwill be closer to 15-20% annually.

For the intent of this discussion safetyand security will be classified in two cat-egories:

1. safety involves reducing the risk ofinjury, loss or death due to accidental,natural and or unintentional causes;

2. security involves reducing risk ofinjury, loss or death due to the inten-tional actions of another person oraction taken by a group.

Safety Films

Safety films contain a single sheet ofpolyester with either a pressure-sensitiveor water-activated acrylic adhesive. Theyare a spin-off solar control films and aregenerally 02, 04, 4.5, 05, 06, 07, 08 mils(0.0002 to 0.0008 inches) in normal thick-ness. Safety films are available in clear,solar control reflective or architecturallytinted varieties. Some have ultraviolet(UV) protection. Safety films are essen-tially used to protect against light load-bearing effects that would ordinarilycrack, shatter or break glass. Most havepoor adhesive capabilities because theiradhesives harden and dry completely andare of minimal thickness; these safetyfilms (or tints) are more likely to suffer

"delamination" (i.e., the film separating,bubbling or peeling away from the glass).Improper cleaning methods can scratchor deface poor quality safety films. Inaddition, safety films do not have astrong resistance to chemicals; as a cau-tionary note, some manufacturers rec-ommend not using an ammonia-basedcleaner on films.

The standard used for the testing of safe-ty films is ANSI Z 97.1-1984. This testingstandard has performance criteria thatare directly related to the reduction ofcutting and piercing injuries to personswho impact the glazing. It should benoted that this test is centered on pre-venting harm to an individual impactingthe coated glass. It is not designedaround objects, explosions or projectilesimpacting the glass, nor does it measurehow well the glazing stays intact or pre-vents the glass from separating andimpacting, cutting or piercing thosebehind it. The three impact levels forANSI Z 97.1-1984 are 100, 150 and 400foot-pounds (ft-lbs). Nearly all safetyfilms can pass the 100 and 150 ft-lbimpact testing requirements without asubstantial percentage of glass loss.Moreover, very few pass the 400 ft-lb test.

Security Films

Security films consist of multiple layersof polyester film laminated togetherwith a pressure-sensitive acrylic adhe-sive. Security laminates are typicallymade in nominal thickness of 09, 11, 13,14, 15, 18, 20mil. Various national, USand international testing agencies,including the Security IndustryAssociation, recommend 09 mils as theminimum thickness for security lami-nates.

The higher-technology security lami-nates provide the following benefits andfeatures: UV radiation control (trans-mittance reduction) of over 99% per-cent in the adhesive throughout thelaminate (high performance laminateshave multi layers of adhesive through-out the laminate, since they consist ofmultiple layers of film), not just in thelayer between the laminate and theglass; non-drying, non-hardeningadhesives; solar control; and a limitedelectromagnetic interference/radio fre-quency (EMI /RF) protection andshielding. There are only a few qualitylaminates that offer composites of thesefeatures.

Security laminates are resistant to heat(900 degrees Celsius), exhibit no flamefront advance (that is, flame does notexpand across the laminate), areextremely hard to ignite and are self-extinguishing when removed fromdirect flame. When retrofitting existingglass, security laminates are the singlemost cost effective approach to prevent-ing perforation and consequent injuryand damage from force entry attacks,projectile entries and explosives blasts.

Underwriters Laboratories (ULC) S332-93 test has three major impact tests,which are conducted at 70 to 80 degreesFahrenheit (21 to 27 degrees Celsius),and two major thermal conditioningimpact tests, conducted at 14 to 120degrees Fahrenheit (10 to 49 Celsius).All the tests involve dropping a 3 1/4inch-diameter, 5 pound hardened steelball onto a 1/4-inch thick, 24-inch by 24-inch glass pane treated with laminateon one side.

The US General Services Administration(GSA) has the oversight of design andconstruction of new facilities and man-ages the existing property for a largeportion of the US Government. After theOklahoma City bombing, the Presidentissued a directive for government agen-cies to take action to protect governmentfacilities. In response to this Presidentialdirective, the GSA developed criteria forevaluation of acceptable levels of protec-tion from glass fragment hazards in aterrorist bombing. These criteria arepart of the comprehensive security crite-ria (GSA Security Criteria, Final WorkingVersion, January 1997) developed by theGSA, which includes physical security,electronic security, and many other cri-teria for blast considerations. The GSAhas indicated that manufacturers musttest their window products against thecriteria to evaluate the performance ofthese products in blast situations if theywant to be considered for use in GSAbuildings.

Most government buildings have beenassigned a threat level or security riskpotential. The most vulnerable buildingsare considered E buildings. These would

typically be US embassies in very dan-gerous areas. An E building is builtaccordingly with highly resistant blastwalls and thick bullet and bomb blastresistant glass. Most government build-ings, however, are already built and musteach be brought up to their security risklevel with a retro-fit procedure. Thesebuildings are generally assigned a level Cbuilding or medium threat level, or alevel D building or the highest threatlevel for a retro-fit situation. The GSAestablished two different minimum blastlevel protection levels, often referred toas GSA level 1 and GSA level 2.

ACE/Security Laminates has met boththe GSA Level 1 and BMAG Level 1. Morerecently a new standard has been intro-duced. With the possibility of largeblasts in close range of vulnerable build-ings, a new group was formed to evalu-ate this possibility. The new group, TheBlast Mitigation Action Group (BMAG,

To qualify for high-end D buildings youmust be able to withstand, throughindependent third-party testing, a GSAlevel 2 blast of approximately 2,500pounds of explosives at 200 feet. Todate, no manufacturer has been able tomeet these new standards. OnSeptember 10, 2001, ACE tested its lam-inates with ABS Consulting and theCanadian Explosives ResearchLaboratories and came very close toreaching the GSA Level 2 standard -

obtaining passing grades ACE's higherend products with test results such as9.3 psi with 71.9 psi-msec, 7.0 psi with92.7 psi-msec. Unfortunately, the test-ing engineers were not able to create acontrolled blast with a minimum of 10psi (although impulse rates of 88psi-msec and higher were obtained) prior tothe tests being called off due to theevents of September 11, 2001. ACE iscurrently reorganizing testing for 2005in order to become the first and onlysecurity laminate manufacturer to meetthese new standards.

The Product

ACE's core strength in the marketplaceis its technology, more specifically, itslaminating process. The processenables ACE to join multiple layers offilm together in order to provide athicker, and hence safer, laminate.Currently, ACE is the only company thathas been able to create a 20 mil laminatefrom four layers of film and anticipatesusing this laminate to meet the US gov-ernment's highest bomb and blastresistance standards - standards thathave not been met by any laminate pro-ducer as of yet. Moreover, our technol-ogy goes beyond the laminate itself butalso includes proprietary anchoringsystems for the window frames. As youlearn about this business, you willunderstand the unique propertiesrequired to protect windows underextreme conditions.

ACE spent many years developing aproprietary adhesive for PET laminatesin order to make ACE laminates the

strongest on the market. ACE laminatesare continuously developed to providegreater strength and bullet and bombresistance and are third-party tested toensure that they meet the highest stan-dards set by the industry (ANSI andUCL standards) and the U.S. govern-ment (GSA standards). ACE has, todate, achieved the highest recorded testscores and continues to provide best-of-breed laminates because of its ability tocreate multi-layered laminates with itsproprietary adhesive. Most large manu-facturers use standard window-tintingadhesives with all of their incumbentweaknesses and are essentially prevent-ed from producing higher-grade prod-ucts due to the deficiencies inherent inwindow-tinting adhesives.

One major reason most safety films failthe ULC test is their adhesives, whichharden and dry over time. Hard anddry adhesives lose their elasticity. Sinceelasticity is necessary as glass expandsand contracts, it is a prerequisite foreliminating delamination. There are

three major factors that accelerate thedegradation of non-elastic adhesives:extreme cold, extreme heat and temper-ature ranges with a variance of over 50degrees during the normal course of theday. Examples of adhesive failure areapparent in automobiles, where thesame type of adhesives is used in tintingfilms. Adhesive failure can also be seen

in windows treated with safety film thathave weathered an earthquake or vio-lent wind loads. The cracked and bro-ken glass shifts or is forced inward slid-ing past the lower pieces; glass frag-ments shear off the thin safety film andseparate, falling away or risking beingblown inward.

The consumer marketplace has beenlargely untouched by the large manu-facturers of security films and safetylaminates - the two most active market-place sellers are window and solar tint-ing companies and glass manufacturersand installers.

Glass manufacturers and installers arenot effective in this marketplace for twoimportant reasons: (i) they typicallyprefer to sell their own, competingproducts as opposed to lower-marginedlaminates; and (ii) glass manufacturersand installers have greater reach in thenew construction market with concur-rent limited reach into the retro-fitmarket.

The window and solar tinting compa-nies fail to adequately serve the marketin two respects: first, they can only offersafety films as opposed to the higher-end security laminates; and second, thewindow and tinting companies train

their employees to apply tints to win-dows - they don't train employees toinstall higher-end safety and securityproducts, which require a different skillset from an installation point of view aswell as from the consumer confidencepoint of view. The importance of thislast point cannot be understated -everyone has seen a vehicle tint job withbubbles or elongated delaminationsand therefore the perception amongstconsumers that the laminates are beinginstalled professionally with an eye toprotecting their family and property iscrucial for success in the consumermarketplace.

The consumer market is divided in 3segments: residential, commercial andautomotive. These segments are alladdressed in a different manner. Forresidential and small commercial, salespeople are required to make calls onprospective customers whereby thelarger office buildings require a more

sophisticated network of real estatemanagers and construction companies,as well as engineers and architects.Finally, the automotive sector requiresaccess to new car dealers and thisindustry has inherent expertise in up-selling customers to features like glassprotection.

To qualify a dealer interested in pur-chasing rights to a territory, we arelooking for people that can showexpertise or access to one of the three

consumer segments initially. Our typi-cal dealers are familiar with the con-struction industry or have beeninvolved in consumer sales, includingsome times alarm businesses. Theeffectiveness of their local marketingplan is the key to success and our salesrepresentatives will follow closely theirprogress over the first year, in additionto any regular dealer support initiativesthat are part of our actual operations.

Welcome to ACE/Security Laminates Inc!

In this section, we will provide some biog-

raphical background on our company.

ACE is a Canadian company, founded in

1993 by Mr. Peter Fabian, to manufacture

and distribute safety laminates.

Mr. Fabian is a contractor with a back-

ground in the television production sector.

He was able to note that a laminate applied

to glass had surprising properties in the

event of an impact. This provoked him to

invent a resistant laminate even more resist-

ant than what existed then on the market.

This was put into research with specialized

equipment, and with the assistance of engi-

neers, conceived a new process that would

create a very powerful multi-layered lami-

nate. In 1996, our product had 3 layers and,

once marketed, became a product that

immediately developed the company. In

1999, new research was undertaken to

develop an even more powerful product. At

the end of 2001, ACE laminate SL20, the

most powerful rolled-iron product of 4 lay-

ers, was the only product with 4 layers of

polyester and impact resistant adhesives.

This resulted in a product and process used

by ACE to assemble its laminates. This

process also makes it possible to increase

the resistance of the basic product while

maintaining a great malleability. The result

is a very resistant laminate, yet transparent

and flexible. And to prove it, ACE under-

went very demanding independent tests

that showed the extraordinary properties of

our laminates (see the technical handbook).

Ace's success was formed through a net-

work of dealers that is present in forty

countries. 90% of our sales consist of

export sales. You will have the chance dur-

ing your training session to meet the princi-

pal personnel who direct the company, as

well as those who will be able to inform

you of more recent developments. The

goal of this handbook is to familiarize you

with the many factors that will make your

dealership a success. Our approach will

require your participation, specifically your

comprehension of this industry. Your

17

answers to the questionnaire will enable us

to ensure that this training is highly prag-

matic.

We will also discuss the basic concepts of

the market and its various methods and

intricacies. We will review the 6 principal

niches of the security laminate market and

some of their characteristics. We will also

examine the various forms of publicity that

can be employed and certain distinctive

aspects of our sales approach. We will dis-

cuss a phased approach to your launch,

including the small details, in order that you

may launch a successful dealership quickly.

We will require an initial 90-day plan, with

focus on marketing.

The two subsequent sections will deal with

elements of management. Initially, we will

discuss sales management, and then the

various aspects of the daily management of

your dealership and how the contribution

of the ACE team can help you be success-

ful.

What is our Mission?Our objective is as follows: To offer a high

quality service to our customers due to the

most powerful range and most effective

security laminates that exist in the entire

world. Our slogan: To protect people and

their property everywhere. ACE is emerg-

ing in a market that is in full growth.

Without the strong presence of our net-

work of dealers, ACE cannot fully benefit

from the many opportunities that exist. We

work together with contractors who take

up the challenge to make ACE security

laminate products the leading window and

glass protection products in the world.
