impact-resistant
Won't shatter easily
Impact-resistant describes materials or objects designed to withstand sudden force without breaking, cracking, or shattering.
The term appears most often with protective equipment and construction materials: impact-resistant glass, impact-resistant helmets.
It suggests durability against collision or dropping rather than immunity—the material resists damage but isn't necessarily indestructible.
