Architectural films have been used successfully for more than 50
years. They represent a simple and fast solution for the
improvement of glass surfaces (windows, doors, glass panels) both
for business and residential buildings. There are a large number
of different window films, and they are usually classified by
their primary purpose: thermal insulation, safety and decorative
films.
1. Solar window films:
Solar window films (stopsol or thermal insulation films) offer the
highest heat protection. By refusing solar heating from the
exterior part of the glass surface, thermal insulation window
films significantly reduce room temperature and filter out harmful
solar radiation, without blocking the natural sunlight.
During the summer, LLumar thermal insulation films can reduce the
room temperature up to 15ºC. At the same time LLumar thermal
insulation films block up to 99,5% of UV rays and reduce up to 87%
of sun glare, making computer work or watching TV more
comfortable. Due to its thermal insulating features, the films
significantly impact energy consumption, in both terms of heating
and cooling)
Thermal insulation films can be reflective (with the “mirror
effect”, because of which they are called “spy films”) and
non-reflective(completely transparent or slightly toned). These
films are applied from the interior of the glass, and in case it’s
not possible, it’s recommended to use the films for outdoor use.
2. Safety window films:
Safety (security or anti-vandal) window films provide the
protection against break-ins and injuries.
From big companies to small shops, restaurants and schools, the
use of safety window films enable control and eliminate danger or
damage cause by the broken glass.
The glass with safety films become stronger and safer and is
harder to break and, if it does break, the films keep the glass
fragments in place.LLumar Safety Window Films are available in
different thicknesses and are usually maid as completely
transparent and optically clean, but there are also safety films
which are slightly tinted, or have thermal insulating or mirror
effect.
3. Decorative films:
Decorative (or decor) films represent a simple, fast and
affordable solution to enhancement and change of any glass
surfaces. They are generally used for They are mostly used for
office space redecoration, interior enhancement of shops,
restaurants, coffee shops and hotel rooms, but recently they’ve
also had increased residential use.
Main types of Decorative Window Films are: color films (white,
black, yellow, red, blue, green etc.), frosted or milky films
indifferent nuances or transparency, and patterned films (dots,
nets, stripes, squares, ice effect etc), as well as custom-made
films.
LLumar decorative window films are available in various finishes,
nuances and colors, and they offer a unique style and privacy
without scarifying the natural light and your budget.
