    Performance benefits are delivered as soon as installation is complete.

  • Long lasting and cost efficient

    A durable solution that requires minimal maintenance and can contribute to energy savings.

  • Maintain your view

    High performance films balance heat reduction with good levels of visible light transmission.

How does heat reduction window film work?

Solar control film works by reflecting and absorbing a percentage of the sun’s solar energy before it passes through the glazing. This reduces heat transfer into the building, lowering internal temperatures and reducing strain on cooling systems.

Available in a range of finishes and performance levels, films can be selected to suit aesthetic, performance and compliance requirements.

Specification support and expert advice

Every commercial building presents different glazing types, orientations and performance challenges. Our experienced team can assess your site and recommend a suitable film specification based on solar exposure, glass construction and desired outcomes.

Whether you are managing a single premises or a multi site portfolio, we provide clear guidance from enquiry through to installation.
