Solar Gard® Armorcoat® solar safety films save energy while protecting your windows
Solar Gard Armorcoat’s solar control safety films are tinted to provide additional sun related benefits, beyond ultraviolet protection. These films include a metallized layer of polyester, sputter-coated with durable, exotic metals for exceptional, solar control performance capabilities and color. In addition to glass retention, they’re selected for their ability to offer privacy, balance temperatures, minimize eye-straining glare, and help preserve furnishings and merchandise. Protect your occupants and property while keeping them cool and comfortable, plus yield significant energy consumption reduction with solar safety Armorcoat.
Solar heat and ultraviolet light can cause fading of furniture, carpeting, curtains and merchandise. Solar Gard films reject up to 99 percent of destructive ultraviolet light and varying amounts of solar heat, helping to preserve the value of your property and provide critical health benefits.
Performance Results
Performance results were generated from testing 1/8” (3mm) thick clear glass
and have been measured, calculated and reported in accordance with ASTM, ASHRAE
and AIMCAL standards. Performance results are subject to variations within industry
standards.
