The sharp UV rays of the sun could be excessively harmful to your skin. Most people are aware of this and are actively protecting their skin. Sunscreen, sun hats, and more are specifically to protect you while outdoors. However, did you know that being indoors can be harmful too? UV rays can easily affect you through the windows of your home. So what’s the solution? Installing window film that is designed to block UV rays is the easiest way to go, protecting yourself and others around you in any home or office.

Why Use UV Blocking Window Film?

Glass windows really only block UVB rays (the rays that hit the surface of the skin), but do not block UVA rays (the rays that penetrate the dermis). With our UV blocking window film, you will be protecting everyone inside your home or office from those damaging UV rays.

Like most individuals, you probably love keeping your blinds and curtains open and allowing the sunlight to come in. But doing this often can be really dangerous for your skin, increasing the chance of cancer developing. By installing window film, you will no longer block your view while protecting yourself and others.

Will Window Film Make My Windows Dark?

The amazing thing about window film is it comes in a variety of shades, giving you the option to go darker or no tint at all. The shade doesn’t affect the UV blocking, giving you endless options.

Window film doesn’t just block those harmful UV rays. It also reduces glare on electronics, reduces hotspots in the room, and protects floors and furnishing from sun damage.
