One of our regular commercial clients, Crown Speciality Packaging in Mansfield, had a problem with glare from the sun dazzling their receptionist via the high level glazing above the main entrance canopy. 3M Prestige40 External solar film was chosen for its sympathetic and natural appearance to compliment the surrounding glass whilst still providing 52% glare reduction.

This Porsche centre had a problem with glare from the sun in reception. Due to the glazing configuration of a laminated inner pane of the double glazed unit, an external grade window film solution was required to avoid the risk of thermal fracture. The existing windows were already black tinted glass and it was imperative that the film specification was in keeping with the corporate aesthetic. Our WFGP Dark Charcoal 05 EXT was installed from mobile access towers to solve the glare problem and match the existing glazing perfectly.

The main reception at Triumph Motorcycles Head Office in Hinckley, Leicestershire is an impressive angled atrium in black tinted double glazing fitting their iconic name following 110 years of manufacturing in Britain. During winter months though, the low level sun was causing a glare problem for the reception staff even through the already tinted glass.

The specification was going to be crucial as it not only had to offer the correct level of glare reduction but it was critical that the appearance complimented the existing aesthetic. Following a successful trial, TG8-XSR dark charcoal non-metallic solar control film with 87% glare reduction and a five year external warranty was chosen. The project was successfully installed from mobile access towers by PASMA certified operatives to 50sqm of glass over 27no high level panes in the mid-section of the atrium. Paul Walklate who is the Indirect Buyer for Triumph Motorcycles said....... Our receptionists were experiencing problems with the light of the sunrise during the winter months; they found wearing sun glasses improved conditions but they were conscious of their appearance when greeting visitors so requested we develop a new solution to the problem. We considered many different ways to approach this such as window blinds and sun screens but the angle of the atrium made it difficult to source a simple cost effective solution so the focus turned towards sourcing a window film. After searching the internet to identify local services, we arranged for a number [...]

The reception atrium at BioCity in Nottingham had a problem with the sun's glare making it uncomfortable for staff behind the desk. This was solved by carefully specifying a solar control window film with enough performance to improve the situation whilst blending in with the existing glazing. 3M CS35 colour-stable non-metallic window film was chosen for its natural appearance but with 57% glare reduction it has been a great success. The blue and yellow translucent feature vinyl was also installed by ourselves during the original building construction.

The Catmose Swimming Pool in Oakham had an issue with distracting glare from the sun and solar heat gain creating a very uncomfortable environment for both users and staff alike. On behalf of Rutland County Council, 261sqm of Titan Dual15 solar control window film was installed to the perimeter double glazed units reducing glare by 85% and solar energy by 70%. Titan15 is a dual reflective window film with a 12 year warranty against bubbling and peeling. It's internal reflectivity is over half that of the external face providing good visibility when compared to standard reflective film. The project was successfully co-ordinated with the County Council during a planned week of closure for maintenance and was installed on time and within budget.

The brand new, award winning premises in the heart of Nottingham required a privacy solution to the windows of the tenants' swimming pool.

A graduating film from white frost to clear that has an anti-bacterial coating to resist finger marks and a 5 year warranty against peeling. The project was completed on time with minimum disruption on behalf of main contractor Laing O'Rourke.
