Traditional solar control window films are constructed of a dyed or metalised active layer, they can be coloured, reflective or non reflective. Solar films reduce the amount of heat, light & UV following into a building though its windows by reflecting & absorbing the suns energy. These films are most commonly identified as window tinting.

Low E Window Films, sometimes called double glazed films are an exciting innovation in window film technology. They are constructed of an active metalised layer of film joined to a active layer of Low e coating. The active layer of metalised film works like a solar film by absorbing & reflecting the suns energy outward.

The E in Low E stands for emissivity,  which is material’s ability to emit radiant energy.

The Low E coating works by significantly limiting radiant heats ability to pass through the glass from the inside of a building to the outside. Thus retaining internal winter warmth like double glazing.

 

Benefits

​

The innovation of low E films has taken window film to a new level of energy efficiency. Low E films create an energy management system for a building in every season. This drastically reduces energy consumption & cost. High preforming low E films like EcoLux 70 can out preform the energy benefits of clear double glazing. Low e film is retrofitted to existing windows and on average costs, 2/3 less than glass replacement with double glazed windows. Low E films are available in low reflective optically clear and reflective versions.Top of page

Safety films are constructed of clear strong polyester layers of film, they are thicker than solar films & use an impact resistant adhesive. The active polyester layer of safety film & adhesive holds glass together when it breaks.They are designed to with stand accidental glass breakage. Safety films can be clear or tinted in appearance. 

​

Benefits

 

Safety window films are used to upgrade plate glass into safety glass & meet Australian Safety Standard 2208. When plate glass, also called float or annealed glass , breaks it does so into large  jutted pieces. Broken plate glass is sharp & very dangerous, It can inflict serious injury's on a person.

With safety film applied to the inside of a plate glass window, when it it breaks, the glass remains stuck to the adhesive on the film keeping the broken pieces in the frame. For example If the breakge is caused by a person falling into the window on the inside their body is pressing against the film rather than the glass at the point of impact. This greatly reduces the likelihood of serious injury.

Plate glass is found in pre 1996 public buildings & is currently the most common glass used in residential homes. Top of page 

Window film innovations recently conducted a safety film test on plate glass windows.  Click here to watch the test video.

Great for

​

• Protecting people from serious injury by turning dangerous plate glass into safety glass

​

• Upgrading existing plate glass to meet Australian Safety Standard 2208

​

• Meeting Family day care & child care requirements

​

• Protecting young children in homes from accidental glass breakage 

​

​

Security films are constructed of clear layers of polyester films, they are thicker & stronger than safety films & contain multiple layers of film to increase tear resistance. They are used for protection from intentional glass breakage & extreme weather events.

​

Benefits

​

Glass is often a buildings weakest link. Adding security window film to glass is an excellent way of protecting property, valuables & people from deliberate glass breakage. Security window films work by firstly increasing the breaking strain of the glass & secondly by holding the glass together when does it break. Security film is used to prevent intrusion in a robbery or break & enter attempt. They protect people from flying projectiles during extreme weather such as cyclones & hurricanes. Security films are widely used globally to prevent flying glass injuries during bomb blasts & explosions. Window film innovations senior installer is an expert security film applicator. Top of page

Anti Graffiti films are similar in appearance & construction to safety & security films, their key difference is in their removable adhesive & high gloss top coat. They are used to protect glass from vandalism & graffiti.

 

Benefits

​

Unfortunately vandalism has become part of our society. Glass is often the target of vandals unsightly & offensive graffiti .The high gloss top coat on anti graffiti window film is easily cleaned of spray paint, maker pens & other marking substances. In the case of deliberate scratching the film acts as a protective coating for the glass. The low tact glue then makes it easy to remove & replace the film without causing damage to the glass.

Although not a solution to vandalism, anti graffiti film presents a less costly, less time consuming option to glass replacement. Top of page

Decorative & Architectural Film

​

Decorative & architectural films are constructed of vinyl. They can contain factory made patterns or be a single solid colour. They are used for adding vibrancy to glass, creating privacy, making signs & decals & completely obscuring the view through glass.

 

Benefits

 

​

Clear glass can some times be boring, unsightly or reveal things you don't want others to see. Adding decorative films to glass can create instant patterns & privacy. Solid vinyl films unlike frosted window films, block significant amounts of natural light making them capable of completely obscuring the view through a window. This can be important when public & private areas are divided by glass. For example a shops crowded store room may be visible from the retail area or a kitchens appliances visible form the restaurant or cafe floor. Top of page
