Madico held a SafetyShield training and certification event in Istanbul on May 18–21, 2026, bringing together 22 companies from 19 countries, according to its June 9 recap. The event took place at the Hilton Istanbul Maslak.

Participants came from Europe, the Middle East, Africa and India. Madico described the program as a combination of product education, practical training, certification and business development for its SafetyShield Premier Partner network.

The event is a concrete example of a manufacturer investing in installation knowledge and distributor support across several regions. It also shows why the word certification needs context: this was a supplier’s partner program, rather than a general approval of every security-film installation performed by a participant.

The recap does not provide a public participant-by-participant pass list or independent assessment of the training. Attendance should therefore not be presented as proof that every attendee earned a credential.

The news here is the completed training event. The organizer’s account does not establish a protective-performance result for a particular building, or justify a claim that an unspecified film-and-glass assembly will resist bullets or forced entry.
