Solar control films reduces heat gain through a building’s windows. They work on the principle of
blocking Infrared Energy (up to 80%) and therefore improving energy efficiency of the building. As much as 35% of a building’s cooling load is caused by the sun’s heat penetrating through the windows.
Solar control films help correct temperature imbalances between sunny and shady areas and it deflects harsh, un-comfortable glare. Employees are more comfortable and more productive.
LLUMAR window films, already popular in Australia and Europe, provide the consumer with the best of both worlds – your windows and view remain almost “clear”(Infrared & Spectra Select Films) while they reject as much as 80% of Infrared heat in summer and actively retain internal heat (up to 60% in winter). All Solar control films also block out 99% of UV rays, ensuring that home/office furniture will not fade of exposure to the sun.
LunarProducts (LLumar) Windowfilm has been received with great enthusiasm by architects and
property developers alike. Dr Andries van der Linde, a consultant to the South African
department of Energy and energy efficiency programmes as well as North American and
European governments, says: “Air conditioning costs in summer and heating costs in
winter account for the majority of electrical expense in businesses, often costing
corporate buildings anything from R50 000 to R150 000 a month.
These costs can be reduced by up to 15% and payback on installation
achieved within 4-5 years, in some cases, with the installation of high
performance window films.”
“LUNARPRODUCTS” only install “Llumar” films (ISO 9001 Certified) for their installations.
Llumar films are the world’s undisputed leader in glass treatment film and their
state-of-the-art hybrid matrix formula is unmatched by any other film manufacturer.
