GLARE REDUCTION FOR LONDON RESTAURANT

Ensuring a comfortable environment is a hugely important consideration for restaurant owners. Making sure the food is as good as possible is obviously vital, but so is delivering a pleasurable space in which to enjoy it. A number of factors can impact on this, with glare being a potential year-round problem for premises with glass frontages or large windows. The Window Film Company’s range of glare reduction window films provide the perfect solution.

The benefits of large windows in a restaurant setting are clear. They provide a view in and out of the premises, allowing potential diners to see in, potentially attracting them to enter, while affording those eating inside a constant look at the outside world. Glass also allows for natural light transmission, helping to establish a pleasant environment. It can also bring with it challenges. During warmer months, if glass is left untreated, heat can pass through the window and add to the internal temperature, quickly making it uncomfortable. Glare is a similar issue, although unlike heat, it can be a problem all year round, with the constantly shifting position of the sun resulting in bright light shining through the glass at awkward and uncomfortable angles.

The Window Film Company was approached to deliver a solution, and after a discussion with the client, it was agreed that Optiview 15 window film was the most appropriate glare reduction solution.

The Optiview range of window films offer a number of high performing benefits, including in the case of Optiview 15, the reduction of glare by up to 84%. As well as filtering out high levels of glare, the film also helps to cut down on excess heat and blocks up to 99% UV rays - the biggest single contributing factor to fading and this is all achieved with a specially developed neutral internal appearance, meaning that those dining in the restaurant enjoy a comfortable experience, while still being able to enjoy the view from the inside out.

The film was installed to the internal face of a number of large street facing windows by a team of The Window Film Company’s highly skilled fitting teams, with the film providing effective relief from glare as soon as it was in place.
