Buy high quality sun protection films

Window films made to measure

Regardless of the type of premises: office or home, medical practice or art studio: exposure to high levels of direct sunlight can significantly reduce the utility value of buildings, even in the summer months. Overheated rooms often reduce the ability to work or sleep. Glare and mirror effects may have a long-lasting effect on visual activities and concentration. Besides, a permanent severe exposure to the sun damages furniture, wallpaper and carpets.

The installation of sun protection films is a cost-saving alternative to expensive mirror glasses, roller blinds or Venetian blinds in order to protect against high levels of sunlight.

Your Advantages:

• Effective heat protection: A heat reduction of up to 86 percent reduces energy costs for air conditioning systems and fans and improves the indoor climate.
• Highest UV protection: Only 1 percent of the harmful UV rays can pass through a high-quality sun protection film - a particularly effective protection against fading of furniture, paintings and other furnishing elements.
• Avoidance of glare effects: Mirrored sun protection films reflect sunlight and reduce disturbing incidence of light on computer monitors and other screens.

Sun protection film & window film for indoor installation

Thermal protection - UV protection - Anti-glare protection - Privacy protection

The advantages of sun protection films for indoor installation are similar to those of external films: they offer effective heat protection, largely prevent the entry of harmful UV rays and avoid or reduce glare effects. Since they are not exposed to any weather effects, they are more durable than externally applied sun protection films.

Solar protection films for indoor installation are available in various shades. Dark films have a mirror effect, which not only provides protection from the sun but also from daylight. Thus, the interior of a building is additionally protected from prying eyes. Basically, strongly tinted films offer more heat protection than light-coloured ones, but due to their lower light transmission they lead to darker rooms on grey days.

How do solar protection films work?
Sun protection films consist of at least six layers and usually have a more or less strong mirror effect. They are available in a wide range of colours and shades.

The basic rule is: the darker the film, the higher the sun and heat protection. If the degree of tinting is particularly high, this is accompanied by reduced brightness on the inside of the building in cloudy weather and in the dark months of the year. The significant darkening effect, which only a few years ago meant that window panes covered with sun protection film hardly transmitted any light, is in the past nowadays - when high-quality, brighter tinted films are used.

An example: the medium-tinted silver sun protection film offers a strong heat rejection of 69 percent with simultaneous 99 percent UV protection and ensures the optimum ratio between sun and heat protection and light transmission.

Reflective effect for privacy
A further plus: sun protection films enhance the exterior appearance of a building when applied over large areas. The silver-coloured sun protection films attached to the exterior have a stronger mirror effect, improving the overall appearance of the exterior facade. At the same time, the mirror effect in daylight prevents prying eyes from looking inside a building. In darkness and rooms illuminated from the inside, however, the glass panels become transparent from the outside. With similar lighting conditions, the panes become transparent on both sides.

Sun protection film: one-for-all - simple self-assembly

Depending on the model, solar protection films for outdoor installation are suitable for flat and sloped window surfaces - whether large glass fronts or small roof hatches, thermal, overhead, gas-filled double glazing or other special glazing. These self-adhesive window films are mounted to the outside of the pane so that the sunlight is reflected immediately on impact. This avoids thermal stresses that could lead to glass breakage.
