In this blog, we will talk about how UV rays can be harmful to all the items that matter to you in your home, office, or car; and what window film does to protect against those UV rays.  

How to Slow Down the Fading

Did you know that about 40% of the fading that you see in your floors, rugs, fabrics, curtains, blinds, wall paint, artwork, and other interior items is due to radiation from the sun coming through your windows?  UV light is the biggest culprit for fading, but the heat and visible light from the sun comes in a close second.  

The way to stop, or dramatically slow down, that fading is to use window film that is designed to protect against the harmful characteristics of the sun coming in.  

Indeed, office tinting window film, home tinting window film, and auto tinting window film all can block up to 99% of UV rays, and can reduce the heat coming through the window by about 75%.

Protecting Your HOME:

You have taken time and care to lovingly furnish your home so it is a beautiful place for you to live.  It is, to be sure, your home base, your retreat, and your sanctuary from the bustle of the world.  

You want to make sure that the artwork you have chosen, the perfect carpet and furniture stay looking good for as long as possible.  You paid a lot of money for them, so you deserve to have them last.  

As noted, 40% of fading that occurs with those home furnishing items by UV light coming into your home, followed by visible light and heat from the sun.  To minimize the fading that the sun will cause, fade protection window film is your solution. It sure beats using heavy curtains that will hide the light and the view from your home windows.  

Some of the residential window films that are provided by Tint Tech to combat fading are as follows:

1. Custom Printed film
2. Decorative or Frosted film
3. Low emissivity film (film that can help keep your energy bills low)
4. Safety and security film

Protecting Your OFFICE:

If you work for building management in the public or private sector, you know all too well that decorating and furnishing a workplace is expensive.  Yet, you want to make sure that the work environment reflects the culture, status, and brand of the organization. Also, work furniture needs to handle a lot of traffic.  Keeping it looking as good as possible for as long as possible is the name of the game.

Protect your investment in office furniture and artwork by installing office tinting window film.  It will add years onto your flooring, paint, furniture, and artwork.

Protecting Your CAR:

We all love our cars.  We care about how our car looks on the road, and we make sure to keep it clean.  But what about the looks inside. It is a bit of a buzz-kill when you see a great exterior, but faded interior.  Don’t let the sunlight cause your interiors, like the dashboard and upholstery, to prematurely fade.  

Regardless of whether your car has cloth or leather seats, both can fade in the face of constant sunlight.  Auto window tinting film will solve that problem with a simple installation.  

Also, just as with office tinting, if you do not like dark window tint, then there are plenty of clear-tinting options that will still keep out the harmful aspects of the sun.
