Both Convenient And Sophisticated, Our Anti-Graffiti Window Films Will Give You Peace Of Mind

by Liz Seyi Digital marketing manager

Graffiti is a truly unwanted blight on our communities. However, it can be even more problematic when found on windows, given the need it often causes to have entire vandalised panels replaced – unless, that is, some kind of protection has been applied to the glass beforehand.

It is such protection that can be provided by the Anti-Graffiti Window Films we manufacture and supply here at Opalux. This film works on a straightforward basis; it acts as an optically clear sacrificial coating that absorbs any graffiti applied to it. As a result, the film can be simply removed and replaced with a new film to restore the window’s previously immaculate appearance.

How and where may these films be used?

It is important to appreciate that the window films in our anti-graffiti range here at Opalux are not, strictly speaking, designed solely for the purpose of protecting a window against graffiti.

That’s because they are, in fact, safety and security films, which means you can also count on them to make your building’s glass safer. This is achieved by not only strengthening the glass against the risk of breakage, but also helping to hold together dangerous shards of shattered glass in the event that the glass does break.

In addition, while these films are by no means heat reduction films, they do reject a consistent 19-20% of solar energy that comes into contact with the glass. Moreover, they filter out 98-99% of harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays, showing a versatility that helps to make these films invaluable for more reasons than one, right through the year.

Finally, one cannot forget – of course – these window films’ considerable usefulness as anti-graffiti films. With the thickness of these films varying between 100-micron and 200-micron, they are highly effective at preventing glass from being scratched or etched by graffiti operators. However, the thicker films in this range are recommended in settings where there is a strong chance of heavy-duty tools being used to apply the graffiti.
