Block the view but not the light...

Frosted window film gives glazing the appearance of acid-etched or sandblasted glass and is an increasingly popular choice for delivering privacy. Once applied, vision will be obscured both ways, whilst natural light will still be allowed to pass through the glass, ensuring a bright, airy atmosphre. Available in a number of different finishes, frosted film is stylish as well as tough. It is often used in high traffic or demanding areas and is a popular choice for bathrooms and shower screens.

Designs and patterns can be cut from the film to give it an added dimension, whilst it also provides the ideal surface for printing onto, making it possible to create a genuinely unique and bespoke privacy solution. 

One of the most popular and widely used window films available, frosted film is suitable for use in almost any situation, and a equally effective in a commercial or residential setting.

One-way, daytime privacy...

Understandably, one-way privacy is often desirable. This means that vision is obstructed from one side of the glass, but is possible from the other. Window film allows this to be achieved during daylight hours, with an application of reflective window film.

This type of window film works on the light balance, with the side of the film that is subject to the brightest conditions appearing mirrored and preventing vision. Those on the darker side of the glass will still be able to see through the glass. During daylight hours, the exterior side of the glass will provide the privacy, making it the ideal daytime privacy solution. When night falls, curtains or shutters are usually drawn, ensuring that privacy is mantained.

Privacy with impact...

Solid colour films such as vinyls can be used to achieve  high impact privacy solution. Available in a broad range of colours, this type of film will completely block vision from both sides of the glass, and will also prevent any light from passing through. This sort of privacy is often required during refurbishment work, or when wishing to block an unsightly view.Vinyl window films can have a high heat absorption rate, so aren't suitable for application to every window. Be sure to contact an expert at The Window Film Company for further advice on this kind of film.
