Exposure to direct sunlight can cause many coloured or painted materials to fade. Damage due to fading is caused by UV light, visible light, heat (including infra-red light), artificial lighting indoors, humidity, and poor dye anchorage – but the first three account for 90% of fading. Ultraviolet, visible light and heat all pass through ordinary glass and can cause damage to goods, fabrics or furnishings in your home or business.

Solar Guard's fade protection window films or solar control films are specially designed to filter out at least 98% of harmful UV rays and reject infra-red heat but still leave a pleasantly lit living environment.

Whilst no film can completely eliminate the effects of fading due to the solar spectrum, over 80% of UV rays, infra-red and visible light can be rejected with our extensive range of fade protection films.
Our range includes films which are ultra clear (once installed, the film is virtually undetectable), tinted, or reflective to offer a choice of fade protection performance and visual characteristics.
