Shop Front Solar Control Window Film, Towcester, Northants

< back

The shop in Towcester, Northamptonshire was suffering from a lot of sunshine causing fading to the window display stock and making it uncomfortably hot for customers. Due to the owner's commitment to energy saving and reducing her Carbon Footprint, air conditioning was not an option.

3M Prestige70 solar control window film was chosen as an alternative to a sun awning to reduce heat gain by up to 50% and with 99.9% UV protection and 97% Infra-Red rejection it offers excellent levels of sun damage protection and fade reduction. The film is practically clear maintaining the natural appearance of the existing glazing.

"The window film installation was a lot quicker than I thought it would be and Mr Wong was very efficient. He also returned a couple of days later to check that there were no problems and that we were still happy with the outcome. One of my original concerns with the glass film was that it had a slight blue tint to it, which worried me as I thought it might discolour the products, but I was very happy to find that our items looked just as good as they did before. The items are now a lot cooler when I take them out of the window, and I don’t have to change the window display quite as regularly. The shop is also a nicer place to be because it is not as hot any more. All in all, we are very happy with the outcome.”
