Window film

Window film suits many applications. You may be considering solar control for your business, additional safety or advertising on your glazing. Whether your priority is practical performance or promotion, window film can be an excellent option.

Window film also offers additional benefits. Our specialists advise on the right film for each setting and application, helping you make the most of its properties. We supply only leading brands for lasting performance.

Types of window film

There is plenty of choice, with a suitable window film for each requirement. Here is an overview of the types we can supply.

Sun and heat

Our solar-control and heat-rejection films help address problems caused by sunlight. As well as overheating a building, sunlight can fade furniture and upholstery, make screens difficult to read and create glare and harsh light that are uncomfortable to work in.

Installing solar-control or heat-rejection film can reduce heat by up to 75% and sunlight by up to 95%, making a noticeable difference. It is also a budget-friendly approach to solar control, costing considerably less than installing awnings, for example.

Subsidies may be available for this type of solar control. Window film can also support efforts to achieve energy label C, which is required for office buildings from 1 January 2023. An office building that does not meet the rules may have to close until it satisfies the energy requirements.

Privacy with window film

Window film is also useful for creating privacy, with a wide range of options. The solar-control and heat-rejection films mentioned above can provide privacy too, with the chosen tint determining the level.

Frosted and etched-effect films are attractive ways to limit views in. Both can be used indoors and outdoors. Their slightly milky-white appearance adds privacy while still transmitting light, so rooms do not immediately become dark.

One-way vision film combines privacy with promotion. It prints beautifully, making it an eye-catching way to communicate your message. Tiny perforations limit views from outside while allowing people inside to see out.

Squid film is a textile window film resembling sheer curtains. This elegant film provides shading, solar control and privacy.

Safety first

Some window films are specifically designed for protection, including security film and safety film. Each provides protection in its own way.

Safety film is fitted where breaking glass could cause serious problems. It holds fragments together if the glass breaks, helping protect people and prevent injuries. It offers a cost-effective option where glass safety is required.

Security window film is designed to delay forced entry. It helps protect people, data and possessions. Windows are a common entry point for intruders, who can gain access quickly and easily, something you naturally want to prevent.

Advertising and decoration

Several of our window films are well suited to promotion. Attractive graphics catch the attention of passers-by and potential customers. High-quality one-way vision film, frosted film and coloured film can all put your business or organisation in the spotlight.

As mentioned, one-way vision film prints exceptionally well and displays full-colour imagery beautifully. Use atmospheric images or your logo and brand name. It is particularly suitable for building signage and fleet advertising.

Milky-white frosted film is ideal for cut-out graphics, offering another stylish way to advertise your business or organisation.

Our transparent coloured window film creates atmosphere through attractive colour effects. It also contains UV stabilisers that block UV radiation, providing an additional benefit.
