Solar Gain & Glare
Solar Gain (heat) is a major problem for internal spaces, especially office and working environments as well as the home. Our complete range of anti-solar films are designed to dramatically reduce the level of solar gain and glare passing through glass and can reduce up to 85% of the sun’s heat from entering the building through the windows.
These films can be reflective or tinted and have complex Sputtering and Vapour coating methods of manufacture, to ensure the best quality is available. With strong adhesive systems the films are designed to be semi-permanent. Both our own branded products and the global brands we supply come with long warranties, of between 10 and 12 years.
Modern generation films have Dual Reflectivity qualities, which reduce the internal reflectance of the film once installed to glass, making for a more pleasing aspect and visual appearance.
Combined solar-safety films are available offering the benefits of both types in one film and are available from 100 to over 350 microns. The film costs for these are only marginally higher and application costs are virtually the same as standard films.
Solar absorption (heat being retained in the glass) can become an issue, if film is applied, so it is always best to consult our team to make sure that the right film is being installed.
