Key Feature: Thickness

The protective efficacy of our films correlates with their thickness, measured in Mil (28 microns per Mil). For instance, our 4 Mil film is 112 microns thick.

Choosing from 4 Film Types

Each film's protective ability varies with thickness. We categorise our films into:

• Safety Window Film: Thinner films for basic protection
• Security Window Film: Thick, multi-layered films for enhanced security
• Anti-shatter Window Film: Films to fortify glass and mirrors, preventing splintering
• Anti-burglar Window Film: Films designed to resist break-ins

Essential Knowledge: glass film protection

1. The degree of protection afforded by each glass protection film is directly linked to its thickness. Adhering to the manufacturer's instructions is essential to ensure optimal performance. While a thinner 4 Mil (112 microns) glass protection film offers fundamental protection, a thicker 12 Mil (336 microns) variant provides enhanced security.
2. The price of the films is influenced by their thickness. Manufacturing thicker films demands more material, thereby affecting the overall cost.
3. The application process for our glass protection films employs a wet method, requiring more time for the adhesive to dry in thicker films. As a comparison, typical mirror films set within 7-12 days, whereas our more robust glass protection films need 15-25 days to dry completely. The full protective qualities are realised once the adhesive is entirely dry.
4. Designed to be discreet, our glass protection films do not alter the appearance of the glass and remain invisible on the surface. We invite you to explore our collection of similar safety window films for more options.
