Heat and Glare Reduction Films
Every building is different, but there are a number of common problems when it comes to glazing. The first problem is Heat and glare.
Excess heat can make buildings hot and uncomfortable, potentially causing problems in almost any room with windows. Add to that the sun’s glare, which can be a problem all year around with it causing potential visibility issues. An application of Tinting Concepts’ heat and glare reduction window films can instantly make your premises more comfortable
An application of our window film will cut out a large proportion of unwanted heat and glare, whilst still allowing natural light to pass through the glass, maintaining your view and best of all, not making your room extremely dark in the process. Our solar film can be applied to existing windows and is available in a range of grades, shades and colours. Each film varies in appearance and performance.
An application of our heat and glare reduction films can have numerous other benefits including reducing the fading on blinds and furniture caused by harmful UV rays and reducing energy consumption by reducing the strain on air-conditioning units. Since our films fliter out up to 99% of the suns UV rays, it provides a welcome additional barrier for sensitive skins. Window film is a more cost effective and easy to maintain solution than traditional methods such as blinds, which require cleaning and block off any view. In contrast, our heat and glare window film requires no additional cleaning and can be installed at the fraction of the cost.

Privacy Window Film
Windows are a valuable source of light as well as providing a welcome view to the outside world. Sometimes however, when privacy is needed, SFF can help you gain that privacy in a stylish and effective way.
SFF offers two types of privacy window film, which are available in a wide range of finishes:
- Full Time two-way privacy
- Daytime one-way privacy
Daytime one-way privacy can be achieved with an application of a reflective window film. The film appears reflective on the brighter side of the glass, which is always the external side during daylight hours, thus preventing vision thru the glass. The view from inside out is maintained. Reflective privacy is suitable for both internal and external application, however a light balance ratio of 3:1 (light to dark) is needed for optimum performance.
Two-way privacy can be achieved with an application of our frosted range of films or solid colour vinyl.
Our frosted window film will give your glass the appearance of acid etched glass, preventing vision both ways whilst still allowing high levels of light to pass through the glass. Our frosted vinyl can be computer cut or printed to take the form of patterns, logos and even artwork or designs which help create a truly bespoke privacy film.
Solid colour vinyl’s are available in a range of colours that will block vision and a large proportion of the light. Vinyl is a good choice for blocking unsightly views or for branding and logos designs after a window film application.
Safety and Security Film
Glass can be fragile and potentially dangerous material, with the possibility of serious damage or injury if broken. Legislation dictates that glass in certain locations must be of a minimum safety standard. SFF offers an effective and efficient alternative to safety glass with its safety and security window film.
Safety window film works by ensuring that if glass breaks, it does so in a safe manner. If a standard untreated glass breaks, the shards fall away from the frame creating an immediate and dangerous hazard. Safety film holds the broken glass in place, preventing it from detaching and causing an issue. This application will immediately transform glass into safety glass.
The film is available in a range of different thicknesses and strengths, as well as in a number of different finishes. The choice of films means that there is a product available to meet both functional and aesthetic requirements.
Designer and Decorative Film
Designer and decorative films gives you the opportunity to turn your internal partitions into something stylish and desirable. With SFF’s help, you will have everything necessary to meet your design challenges in a visionary way.
If it is simple you are after, our frosted films offer the illusion of an acid etched glass. The designs can feature anything from 3cm squares all the way to those classic pinstripes.
For companies that are looking for an opportunity to add an extra creative dimension to your offices, SFF can tailor make a designer piece that varies from strategic placement of your company’s name to a truly bespoke piece meant to inspire more creativity around the office.
Colour Window Film & Vinyl
An application of a coloured window film is a simple, cost effective way to change the appearance of your glass.
Rainbow coloured film by SFF is a transparent range of window film available in a select amount of colours that once applied will give your glass the appearance of coloured glass. The transparent nature of the film means that you can change the appearance of your windows without sacrificing any natural light, or losing vision from one side of the glass to the other.
Coloured vinyl films are a vibrant range of solid coloured films that provide a colourful way of obscuring vision through windows doors or partitions. As well as proving an eye-catching privacy solution, coloured vinyl can be computer cut to create vivid logos and patterns for your glass. Our range of LG Hausys vinyl’s are long lasting, durable and versatile.
