Reduce Your Energy Footprint

Commercial solar film built for Texas heat — protecting buildings, employees, and bottom lines

Every summer, unprotected commercial glass turns your building into a solar collector — driving up HVAC costs, creating uncomfortable hot zones near windows, and fading interiors. 3M solar control window film blocks up to 79% of solar heat before it enters your building, cuts glare by up to 84%, and stops 99% of UV rays. The result is a more comfortable workspace, measurably lower energy bills, and an installation that pays for itself.
