FAQ’s

Window film is a thin laminate applied to the interior surface of glass windows. It’s designed to:

• Reflect or absorb solar energy (heat and UV rays)
• Reduce glare and improve comfort
• Add privacy or decorative style
• Strengthen the glass or provide a safety layer

Depending on the product, this is achieved using advanced materials like metallic coatings, ceramic layers, or dyed polyester.
