Versatile mirror film for windows

A mirror film is essentially the darkest version of a highly reflective silver sun protection film. The properties (mirror effect, UV and glare protection, heat reduction) are therefore identical.

Mirror films are available for both exterior and interior application. Before fitting, you need to determine the type of glass: for single-glazed windows, furniture glazing, or double glazing without gas filling or thermal coating, an interior film can be used. If the glass is insulated or thermal glazing, a gas-filled pane, laminated safety glass, tinted glass, or angled roof glazing, an exterior film must be used.

Mirror films offer the highest heat protection of all sun protection films. The exterior version provides the strongest heat reduction at up to 86%, whilst the interior version rejects up to 80% of heat radiation. Fitting a mirror film can noticeably improve the indoor climate, as it can achieve a temperature reduction of several degrees in interior spaces.

The privacy effect of mirror films is created by the so-called "one-way mirror effect": this prevents visibility from whichever side of the glass has the greater light intensity; the other side remains transparent, though tinted. You can see out clearly through the side with less light. This means that at night, with interior lights on, additional privacy measures are needed.

To maintain privacy during the evening and night hours, you can use additional pleated blinds, venetian blinds, or roller blinds.
