3 Things Window Film Can Protect Your Business From


As a business owner, you are surely aware that of the many benefits and drawbacks your building provides. However, you might not be aware that there are a number of easy ways that can help you to improve the quality of your work environment, potentially boost productivity and improve your bottom line. Having commercial window film installed is one of these ways. Window film can actually provide a number of major advantages to your business by helping to protect you from all of the following things.

Damaging UV Rays

One of the biggest advantages of installing commercial window film is that it protects against the damaging effects of UV rays. Window film is designed to block out UV rays while still letting light through. In this way, you can protect your floors, walls and furnishings from fading, discoloration or otherwise being damaged by UV rays. By blocking out the UV rays, you can also help to protect your employee’s skin and eyes from the harmful effects.


UV rays will damage and fade most fabrics, furnishings and other materials. However, by installing window film, you can ensure that these harmful rays are almost completely blocked out and thus increase the life of your furnishings.

Heat and Glare

Windows are undoubtedly one of the most important parts of a building, but the problem is that the light they let in can create a range of different issues. Untreated windows not only let in light from the sun, but also heat. By using window film, you can help to shield against this type of heat gain to ensure that your office remains cooler during the hot summer months. In addition, window film also helps to filter the light, which makes a dramatic difference in reducing glare. As a result, your employees will be able to more easily work on their computers without having to strain their eyes and struggle due to the glare.

High Utility Bills

A building’s windows are generally one of the biggest sources of heat loss and heat gain. During the summer, all the light being let in through the windows can drastically raise the temperature of the building due to heat gain. Similarly, windows are also a huge source of heat loss during the colder winter months. In both cases, the result is that the heat loss or heat gain leads to higher utility bills. Heat gain forces your air conditioner to run more often in the summer, and heat loss results in the heater having to run more often to keep the building warm during the winter.


Installing commercial window film can eliminate both of these issues by helping to filter out the light. With window film, you should experience less heat gain during the summer and also be better protected against heat loss during the winter. As a result, window film may be able to help you dramatically reduce your utility bills by eliminating this major source of heat loss and gain.


As you can see, window film can actually provide a number of important advantages to your business. Of course, the only way to truly understand all of the benefits it can provide is to try it yourself.
