Heard all about the wonders of window film but unsure where to start? Tried looking at window film and found yourself confused by the choices? Whether you're looking at applying film to your home or business premises, we're breaking down the options so you can make an informed decision.
People often talk about how much they enjoy their window film, but it can come in many varieties, each with unique properties designed to tackle a particular concern you have at home or work. We create bespoke films, but the first choice is the window film you want to apply.
Types of window film
While we call it window film, this is a bit of a misnomer; film can be applied to any glass surface in your home or business. You might want to include skylights, glass doors, or even glass-walled offices. Choose from any of our types of window film, and you don't have to opt for the same variety throughout your property. You can mix and match to get the effect you require.
