An introduction to dual reflective window film

Dual Reflective Window Film: The Facts.

Dual reflective heat reduction window film refers to a range of high performance solar control window films, designed specifically to provide a more neutral internal appearance outside daylight hours.

While some heat reduction window films will appear reflective on the inside when it is darker outside, dual reflective window films from The Window Film Company have been specially developed to take on a more neutral, tinted, internal appearance.

This means as well as providing exceptional heat and glare reduction and UV protection, dual reflective window films also provide excellent one-way daytime privacy - delivering a view to the exterior for longer than standard reflective window films.

Dual Reflective Films for Heat Reduction

The Window Film Company supplies and installs dual reflective window films for heat reduction, with the reflective appearance of the film serving to reflect away a percentage of the sun's heat before it can pass through glass and add to the internal temperature.

Optiview 05 window film and Optiview 15 window film film will reject up to 80% of solar energy, while both films will also provide excellent levels of glare reduction.

During hours of daylight, the external facing side of the film will take on a reflective appearance, while the internal facing side of the film will appear more neutral, taking on a slightly tinted look.
