Heat, glare and UV control
Solar Control Window Films
Solar control film keeps rooms cooler in summer, cuts glare on screens and, with low E films, helps hold heat in during winter. All without blocking the view.
Our solar control films reduce heat and glare coming through the glass by between 45% and 78%, depending on the film, and block 99% of harmful UV rays, which also slows fading on furniture, flooring and stock.
Our low E films work all year round. In summer they reflect heat back out; in winter they reflect radiant heat back into the room, which helps reduce heating and cooling costs. The 364 Neutral Low E range comes in two strengths, compared below, with a 5 year manufacturer's warranty.
Films are usually fitted to the inside of the glass, and we can supply high performance external films where needed. Higher specification films also give excellent daytime privacy, which is useful for garden offices where expensive equipment and laptop screens should stay out of view.
We assess the glazing first and recommend the film that suits it. With over 30 years of experience supplying and fitting these products, we will tailor the solution to your building.
