3M’s state-of-the-art UV film offers a layer of protection on your glass doors and windows to prevent fading furniture and flooring in your home.
Your home is made up of the things you’ve picked over time that you love, from furniture and flooring to the artwork and décor. Protect your home from the harshness of the sun with UV film.
Here’s a look at how 3M’s home window tinting can help you preserve the color, integrity and lifespan of your interior finishes and belongings while enjoying natural daylight without compromise.
Reduce Fading with UV Film
3M offers a UV film protection that is scientifically proven to block 99.9% of the sun’s damaging UV rays from entering your home.
According to the University of Central Florida’s Florida Solar Energy Center, “Ultraviolet radiation (UV) is the single largest contributing factor in fading of fabrics, carpets and other furnishings. Although visible light, electric lighting, heating, humidity, age of fabrics and fabric dyes all play a part in the process, UV radiation is attributed to 40% of the damage.”
The most effective way to reduce fading and guarantee the longevity of your possessions is with 3M UV window film, offering protection no matter the weather.
Manufactured by the world’s leader in adhesive technology, 3M’s UV window tint are able to block UV rays due to the technology behind their construction. Hundreds of layers of very thin film are precisely placed to deflect the sun’s unwanted, damaging rays away from a home’s windows and glass doors. This means these films can deflect UV rays as well as heat-producing infrared rays.
Not only can you reduce the penetration of UV rays by 99.9%, but your windows can remain looking unchanged. 3M’s Sun Control Prestige Series Window Film offers a nearly clear tint that provides that same level of protection against UV. Unlike other tinted or mirror films, our UV blocking window films can come optically clear with low reflectivity inside and out. You get all the benefits of powerful sun control with a subtle appearance that won’t interfere with your views or aesthetics.
Guaranteed Real Protection with UV Film
No matter if you’ve invested in real hardwood, paneling, carpet or framed art, the UV film serves as an invisible shield against sun damage.
UV window tint helps reduce the risk of patchy, uneven flooring, faded upholstery or warped wood, particularly in open spaces with large windows or rooms exposed to large amounts of sunlight. With this invisible upgrade, your interior stays as pristine as the day it was installed.
When you work with a professional 3M™ Authorized Window Film Dealer, like IES Window Film, your window tint UV protection is backed by an industry-leading warranty. Your residential window films (both the UV window film installation and the film itself) are protected under warranty for as long as you own your home, and they are guaranteed not to crack, peel, bubble, discolor or lose their solar performance over time. (Warranty length may change if installed on commercial properties and may depend on the film type used for uses. Reach out to IES Window Films to discuss the details.)
UV Film offers Protection for People, Too
UV Film provides SPF protection of over 1000 for your skin as well as your belongings and furnishings.
Because of its UV fighting technology, 3M UV blocking film offers skin protection from harmful UVA and UVB rays, shielding against sunburn, premature aging and skin cancer.
The National Library of Medicine published a report stating that UV radiation can reach the skin from all directions, regardless of whether you are standing in shade or indoors. Consequently, UV film is an effective solution to prevent UV rays from entering buildings and reducing the risk of skin cancer.
Enjoy lower temperatures throughout your home, too, as 3M’s Sun Control Prestige Series Window Film can lower internal temperatures by 9°F. This will in turn lower your electric bill, keeping you cool and keeping bills more reasonable. You’ll experience fewer hot spots as the film will reject up to 60% of the heat entering the room.
