The school hall at Winstanley Community College in Leicester had recently undergone a major window replacement. Smoke tinted double glazed units had been installed to give a modern appearance and the old blinds had been removed. Unfortunately, this had led to a problem with glare via the high level windows affecting school assemblies and the projection screens. We were referred to the school as a company who would be able to solve their problem. Following a survey we identified that the glazing configuration had a laminated safety glass inner pane. Therefore, an external solar film installation was recommended to avoid any thermal fracture risk on the inner panes. The school requested that the film needed to have the same smoked appearance as the glass to keep the modern aesthetic. Madico CH08 XSR was specified to provide 91% glare reduction. The installation to 82sqm of glazing from 5.2m mobile access towers by our certified installers was carried out during the October half-term holiday to help the school minimise disruption and as to not cause a health and safety issue. Ian Joyce, Site Manager, commented It looks really good and I've received some positive comments. As you can see from the photo of the hall floor, there is a lot of glare from the low level windows shining on the left but it is greatly reduced on the right side from the high level windows.

Glare from the low winter sun was causing a problem for users of the County Library in Oakham, Rutland. Following a successful installation by ourselves at one of their swimming pools, Rutland County Council asked us to propose a solution. Due to the nature of the building and location, a mirror reflective finish would not have been acceptable. SolarGard Sentinel Plus Stainless Steel 25 OSW was specified for its natural internal appearance and subtle, smoked, low reflectance external impact. By reducing 73% of the glare visitors can now relax and enjoy a book or two in comfort.

3M Neutral35 solar film was installed to the high level glazing at this Ford showroom in Lutterworth to reduce glare by 60%. 3M Neutral35 is the only window film that Ford specify across all of their showrooms and at WF Glazing Protection we are approved by 3M to install it for them.

Our WFGP Silver20 solar film was also installed in other areas of the building to make it a more comfortable working environment.
