Heat reflective window film can be used to control heat and glare and is
designed to reduce solar heat
and
glare
in the
office using either reflective or non-reflective
film.
Solar Heat Gain and Glare Reduction of up to 78% can be achieved using Solar
window film, Mirror film and heat reflective window
films.
Solar Control Window Films are a tried and trusted solution within thousands of businesses
across the UK and are used by millions of organizations
throughout the world to combat the effects of heat
and glare from the sun. Additionally, solar film acts
as a daylight privacy film in that it protects you
and your valuables from prying eyes.
Solar Window Film reduces the strain on air conditioning and cooling units helping
to reduce energy consumption and reduce carbon footprints

How Solar Film Works.
The
film is basically a polyester film impregnated
with a metal coating - either metalised OR sputted process
- the mirror film reacts to the strongest light source
giving the effect of a reflective mirror or neutral
grey look
depending on the film type and colour.
From
the outside, the strong light source of daylight where
a person looking
toward the treated window, will see a mirror or neutral
grey while the inside view outwards is a slight window
tint and
visually
transparent.
Solar window film is applied to existing glazing in
order to reject and reduce the effect of the sun including
heat
and
glare. Commonly termed mirror film, window tint and
window tinting, our window films provide varying
degrees of window tinting [effect/s] to glass and
thus reduce heat through windows.
A building heats up substantially during any period of sunny weather and even
in winter, windows and other glazed areas increase
the
intensity of this
heat gain. We have probably all sat beside a window
and experienced a burning sensation from the direct
heat of the sun.
Many computer users experience discomfort and eye-strain caused by glare from
the sun reflecting on their Visual Display Unit.
This
can have a severe detrimental effect on the efficient
running and profitability of a company.
Sun
shade film from Sureguard, act as a powerful aid to
minimize
glare
providing a far more comfortable working environment.
Solar, Neutral or Mirror polyester solar window
films are applied internally to glass or glazing.
Solar
Films are normally used in places where there is a
need to reduce heat, glare, add privacy.
Premium
Solar Film also acts as a good privacy film and one
way vision film.
Ultra-Violet
barriers in solar and neutral window films filter up
to 99.7% of U.V. transmission protecting goods from
rapid
deterioration.
