Global Architectural Window Film Market Likely to be Driven by Demand for Sustainable and Effective Window Film Solutions for Residential and Commercial Spaces

The global market for architectural window films is expected to be driven by demand for window films that offer comfort, safety and energy savings in residential and commercial applications. North America, Europe and Asia are projected to be key markets.

Architectural window films offer benefits with respect to décor as well as functionality along with appealing aesthetics and vast design possibilities. Several solutions providers offer full-service capabilities in architectural finishes and decorative window film solutions, leveraging innovation and technological advances in window film. Companies offer flexible and creative finishing solutions for applications in architecture as well as interior design.

Architectural window films are available in a broad variety. Apart from appealing looks, architectural window films help create attractive and defining interior atmospheres and environments.  These films reflect creative designs and enhance comfort levels of occupants while enabling energy savings and contributing to environmental sustainability. Architectural window films are used in residential as well as commercial buildings, including office towers, government buildings, museums, libraries, schools, healthcare facilities, etc.

Reflective solar window films help enhance building sustainability while making a visual statement and increasing occupants’ comfort. The materials employed enable exterior application without disruption, which is especially suited to commercial applications.

Modern dual reflective solar window films lines come engineered with nanotechnology for longer colour stability and better solar protection. Such sustainability-increasing materials employ a sophisticated reflective outer dual reflective layer which decreases glare and solar heat coming into a room, in combination with a less reflective inner layer enabling occupants to view outside. This results in enhanced indoor comfort, superior daytime privacy, and a smaller carbon footprint from cooling appliances in the building.

Modern spectrally selective solar window films employ advanced nanotechnology to decrease solar gain and carbon footprints from cooling appliances while maintaining window transparency.

Specialty window films used in interior installation improve glass aesthetics and functionality. These films offer UV protection, privacy, and creative flexibility. Specialty window films can be used to define space, disguise unattractive features, resist UV damage, and enhance an area’s graphic impact.

Safety and security window films offer protection against several threats including flying glass shards.

Surface protection window films offer economical protection for valuable glass and rigid plastic substrates, and help safeguard glazing systems in sensitive public areas from vandalism and damage. A strong, invisible layer resists miscreants and enables protection against spray paint, scratches and engravings.

Sustainable and Comforting Solar Control Window Films Expected to Witness Increased Demand

Due to day long exposure to sunlight and resultant increase in glare and UV levels, glazed buildings are challenged with maintaining a comfortable working environment. Solar control window films are easy to install, and enable cooler interiors without air conditioning. Further, these films help block IR and UV radiation. Those sections of offices that are exposed to sunlight all day long need to protect employees from glare, heat and UV rays; there is also the issue of reducing the use of cooling systems. Solar control films offer long term, enduring solutions that offer protection from solar heat, glare and UV rays, and help decrease usage of cooling systems. Due to these features, solar control window films are expected to see increased demand.
