TV companies are offered a free demonstration in any of our nationwide franchises to show how effective SupaGlass is at foiling thieves (Brick or hammer thrown in!)
Pentagon SupaGlass, a laminate professionally fitted to the inside windows of vehicles, has been shown to be effective in thwarting the most determined thief from breaking into any car or commercial vehicle.
The attached photograph shows a car which a hooded thief tried to break into in London last week - despite repeated violent kickings, time was not on the thief's side and unable to lean in far enough to steal from the glove box, he was caught and arrested. Yesterday the local BBC television news showed a door being repeatedly kicked in at a demonstration at the company's headquarters in Acton, viewers (and passers by) were treated to a 3 minute spectacle - no thief would have stuck around that long.
The rise in car crime is linked to the rise in use of portable SatNav, cars are targeted for the outline of the sucker marks on the inside of windscreens. Traffic light carjackings, smash and grab and muggings are up, dog-napping is on the increase. Clear SupaGlass fitted to the side windows reduces the most common car crime. For the protection of children against harmful UV rays and shattered glass, tinted SupaGlass is also available for the rear of the car. General Manager Tom Hardyment says: 'There is no price we can put on peace of mind and the protection of our families and our possessions'.
Pentagon Glass-Tech, with over 15 franchises in this country, is endorsed by government departments, emergency services, VIP's and celebrities, not to mention Big Brother and The House of Tiny Tearaways. Safer, stronger and more secure than ever, Pentagon SupaGlass is at the forefront of crime-busting, protecting our families, our possessions and giving us peace of mind each time we leave the house.
