Bahrain-based telecommunications and defence systems company Building Defence Systems (BDS) has completed its work on an oil and gas facility in Qatar.

Some 1,800sqm of FT800 blast mitigation glazing was applied to the project by BDS in co-ordination with Pentagon Protection.

The new glass will be used to secure all the exterior glazing and protect property, employees and the public from damage and injuries in the event of an explosion or attack.

The product is already in use by national governments, oil companies and blue-chip organisations in Bahrain, Qatar, the UAE, Iraq, Jordan and Saudi Arabia, as well as across Europe and the US.-TradeArabia News Service
