How does window film stop sun glare on windows?

The simplest way to describe the effect of sun glare reduction window film is to imagine placing a light pair of sunglasses over your glazing. The film serves to filter out the harshest of the light, while still allowing natural daylight to pass through the glass, ensuring that while the glare is substantially reduced, the benefits of having windows in the first place (natural light and a view to the exterior) are maintained.

What will my office windows look like?

The Window Film Company offers a range of glare reduction window films, each varying in appearance and each with a different performance level. The most effective window films for combatting sun glare on windows are reflective or mirrored in appearance, giving the exterior face of the glass a sleek and stylish mirrored effect.

There are also more neutral looking films although it is important to realise when looking for a glare reduction solution that an aesthetic change to the appearance of the glass is necessary to deliver a worthwhile level of performance.

No. Window film from The Window Film Company has been specially developed to ensure that natural light can still pass through the glass, meaning that on a nice bright day, it will remain nice and light inside your office, with the harshest, brightest light that makes life uncomfortable filtered out.

Glare reduction films will also deliver an element of solar control, but again, the films have been designed to reject excess heat instead of blocking warmth altogether. The films have been manufactured with the end user very much at the focus, with the knowledge that people enjoy natural daylight, a view to the exterior and a pleasant temperature all key considerations.
