REFLECTIVITY THAT'S ACTUALLY LOWER THAN GLASS
One of the major draw backs of traditional window films is that they tend to act like mirrors. From the inside, traditional window films make it difficult to see outside, especially at night when interior lights are on. In the day time, the outside reflection tends to give a home the look of a commercial building. 3M prestige window films area a collection of four window films that have substantially reduced reflectivity. This premium line offers two styles of window films that can have less interior reflectivity than the glass they cover. The other styles have interior reflectivity that is just 1% greater than glass. So, at night, you'll have a clear view out your windows.
SUPERIOR HEAT REJECTION THROUGHOUT THE DAY.
For most people, there are two primary reasons for installing window films: rejecting heat to increase comfort and fade protection from damaging UV rays for furnishings. Prestige 3M Window Films do both remarkably well.
To measure just how impressive these films are, we created a more stringent specification for their performance: total solar energy rejected - on angle. This specification proves that our films are unsurpassed throughout the day and especially during the hottest times when you need the help the most. So, when the sun is working hardest, our films are performing the best.
While some films claim similar performance, the fact that their performance is only similar when tested perpendicular to the sun, which only can happen at the relatively cool times of sun rise and sun set. Our spectrally - selective films reject up to 97% of the sun's infrared light to help keep your home cool and lower your energy bills.
3M Window Films are designed to reduce the effects of solar heat and visible light on your furnishings and will block up to 99.9% of the suns harmful ultraviolet rays, which are the single largest cause of fading. While no film can stop fading completely, our films dramatically slow the process of fading to keep your home looking beautiful.
OPTICALLY CLEAR. TECHNICALLY SUPERIOR.
Creating a clear window film with all these advantages wasn't easy. It required the world leading nano - technology of 3M. Nano - technology works with materials that are over 1000 times smaller than the width of a hair. This expertise allows us to create a patented window film with hundreds of layers that is less than the thickness of a POST IT NOTE. It has allowed us to create a film that delivers the highest performance possible without metal, which can corrode and interfere with mobile phone signals.
