Clearly Superior Films for Clearly Superior Homes No-Metal Technology Because traditional window films use metal, they are susceptible to corrosion in coastal environments and may interfere with mobile phone reception. Because these films have no metals, they are the first films to offer a variety of selections that eliminate these problems and perform to the industry's highest standards. Reflectivity That's Actually Lower than Glass One of the major drawbacks of traditional window films is that they tend to act like mirrors. 3M's premium line offers two style of window films that actually have less interior reflectivity than the glass they cover. The other styles have interior reflectivity that is just 1% greater than glass. Your windows will only reflect your commitment to keeping your home looking beautiful!

Protecting People and Property with 3M Prestige Safety & Security Window Film Sometimes the threat is from nature, other times people. No matter where the threat comes from, 3M Safety and Security Window Films can help you be prepared for the worst. Protection for Your Home or Business Severe Weather & Hurricanes - Natural disasters like hurricanes, tornados, high winds, and earthquakes are unpredictable. But by planning ahead, your building can be prepared for the worst. Glass can be your worst enemy in severe weather and storms. When unprotected glass breaks, shards can be sent flying causing severe injury to people and major damage to property. During a disaster, 3M Safety and Security Window Films help hold the glass together to maintain the integrity of your home. This also helps to keep flying glass from harming inhabitants and, in many circumstances, keeps out wind and rain. 3M Safety and Security Window Films also help you deter street crime. Because the window film helps hold the glass in place, criminals don t have the quick access they need to successfully smash and grab merchandise. Often the window slows them down to such a degree that they may choose to move on to an easier target. Damage from the Sun: Over time, the powerful UV rays of the sun can do enormous damage to merchandise, upholstery, carpet, wallpaper, window treatments and wood. You can always pull the blinds, but what is the use of having windows if you can t enjoy the view? 3M Window Films are designed to reduce the effects of solar heat and visible light on your furnishings and will block up to 99% of the sun s harmful ultraviolet rays, which are the single largest cause of fading. While no film can stop fading completely, our films dramatically slow the progress of fading. Discomfort from the Sun: Sun control problems can also make keeping a home or building comfortable a difficult job. 3M Window Films help to eliminate hot spots in your home where windows contribute greatly to the temperature of the room. And window film can help keep your air conditioner from working overtime. The 3M Prestige Series has the added feature of blocking up to 63% of the heat of the sun and reducing the glare. The result is greater comfort, less eye fatigue and lower energy bills.
