Window films combine both aesthetic and practical benefits. Not only do they improve your daily life at home or at work, they can also add a touch of design to your interior. Here are our top tips for choosing the ideal film for your office.
Look for more privacy with privacy glass film
To choose the film that best suits your interior and your needs, first identify your priorities.
Office glazing film is often applied to workplace windows to protect the privacy of occupants. Especially if your office is on the first floor. Tinted, reflective or opaque film prevents passers-by and neighbors from seeing inside, and protects you from prying eyes.
Anti-glare film is particularly used in banks or medical practices to enhance discretion and security.
Improve your workplace security with burglar-proof film
If you're looking for a more cost-effective way of securing your workplace and enhancing your office's protection, it's also advisable to turn to anti-break-in film.
The latter, thanks to its more robust composition, resists minor shocks, scratches and blows. As a result, the glass is less likely to shatter on impact. If the impact is too severe, the glass, even if broken, remains agglomerated, preventing splinters and splinters from injuring occupants. It's an excellent way of protecting employees and ensuring the safety of your office glazing.
Choose office comfort with anti-UV film
The sun is often an office worker's worst enemy, for a number of reasons. Firstly, when it penetrates directly through windows, it can create glare and reflections on computer, telephone or tablet screens.
This is particularly unpleasant and compromises comfort at work. This is why solar protection film is usually applied to office windows to prevent glare and reflections, and keep employees' eyes comfortable.
Avoid heat at work with thermal film
When the sun shines directly through windows into an interior, it also generates heat. Working in a hot, enclosed space, particularly during the summer months, is extremely difficult, especially if the building faces due south.
This leads to fatigue and loss of concentration, and compromises employee productivity and comfort. Solar film is the ideal solution for naturally regulating room temperature.
In fact, its anti-UV effect prevents the heat from creating a greenhouse effect, and helps maintain a cool, pleasant temperature in the office, even in midsummer. You'll also save money on your electricity bill by limiting air-conditioning use.
What's more, by blocking UV rays, solar film also prevents interior fading and the harmful health effects of ultraviolet rays. Your colleagues will be delighted!
