CLEAR UV FILM FOR HOME FADE PROTECTION

Sep 26 2025

Since 1998, The Window Film Company have been supplying and installing high quality window films for use in both residential and commercial settings. Whatever the location, window film from The Window Film Company is guaranteed to be high-performing and long lasting, with this installation taking place to block UV rays at a home in Greater London.

Standard, untreated glass will allow UV rays to pass through windows unchecked, combining with other factors (heat and visible light) to cause fade damage. Fading can impact furnishings and upholstery, and can take place all year round. An application of window film from The Window Film Company can help mitigate against this.

It’s important to understand that due to the factors that combine to cause fading, the only way to prevent it entirely is to block UV rays and natural light. This will result in the view being blocked and will usually negate the reason for having windows in the first place. In the overwhelming majority off instances, it simply isn’t a feasible solution. One of the next best things is to tackle the biggest single contributing factor when it comes to fading – UV light.

That’s where Clear UV window film comes in.

Sometimes referred to as museum film, Clear UV is an optically clear window film that is virtually invisible when installed to glass. This makes it popular in locations such as museums and shopfronts as it blocks up to 99% of potentially harmful UV rays without altering the appearance of the glazing. This is why it is also popular among homeowners that are looking for a product to help fight fading.

This project saw Clear UV window film installed to 30 panes of glass throughout the home, with the film applied by a team of The Window Film Company’s vastly experienced and fully qualified installers.

Once in place, the film was effective immediately, delivering highly effective protection from UV light, without altering the appearance of the glass, blocking the view or sacrificing natural light.
