A news release reports that the strategic partnership of QMI, Riot Glass and Campbell will be able to offer customers a “suite of highly engineered solutions” uniting security shutters, security glass and framing systems.

“We are extremely excited to join forces with the Riot Glass - Campbell team. Together, we will offer customers innovative, comprehensive solutions for their most challenging forced entry and ballistic security needs,” said Kevin White, CEO of QMI Security Solutions.

Riot Glass manufactures retrofit security glass and door systems, while Campbell Corporation is a C-17 licensed glazing contractor, according to the news release. Campbell also serves as one of California’s largest dealers of Riot Glass, 3M Window Films and other retrofit products.
