Purlfrost, the company responsible for introducing frosted window film to the world of interiors, also supplies a wide range of solar control window films.
Glass is widely used in modern building construction, with large glass bi fold or sliding doors, as well as glass roofs becoming more and more popular popular.
Unfortunately, the effects of the sun (fading of furnishings, excess glare and heat) are often ignored at the planning stage, and left to be resolved by the occupier. This usually means installing expensive blinds or air conditioning units, which is costly and not always the ideal solution.

Solar window film is a very cost effective way to remedy the issues associated with excess sunlight. The film is a self adhesive material, which is applied directly to the internal or external surface of existing glass, using a wet application process involving nothing more technical than a squeegee and soapy water. There are many films to choose from, including tinted, reflective, heat rejection and UV control. Solar control technology has moved forward significantly, the quality so good that most modern films come with a 10 year warranty.

A best seller is their range of films specially formulated for polycarbonate and glass conservatory roofs. Up to now, the only option was the purchase of expensive blinds, which were awkward to use, and impossible to keep clean. Once applied, the film is very easy to maintain and only needs wiping clean once in a while. More importantly, it makes the conservatory user friendly and a real asset to the house.
