With temperatures in the United Kingdom soaring and predictions of records being broken, now is the time to consider Solar Film to provide a more comfortable workplace environment.

Window Film, including Solar Film, is applied to existing glass to form a barrier to reflect and/or absorb solar energy before it enters a building. Solar Heat Gain and Glare Reduction of up to 90% can be achieved using Solar Control Window Film from Sureguard.


Solar Control Films are a tried and trusted solution within thousands of businesses across the UK and are used by millions of organisations throughout the world to combat the effects of heat and glare from the sun. Sureguard Solar Control Window Films provide a quick and effective solution enabling you to benefit from our professionally manufactured and installed products.

SAFETY FILM - Improves the safety performance of existing glass
 

Safety Film from Sureguard Window Films provides an enhancement to safety performance of any glass within the workplace or around the home.

Whilst the film can slightly improve the inherent strength of the glass to which it is applied, reducing the risk of initial breakage, it's real benefit comes from the film being able to hold together broken glass fragments.

Whether the glass is broken through impact, building movement, vandalism or weather conditions Safety Film provides a barrier to fragments of glass breaking free.

The risk of initial and subsequent injury is dramatically reduced enabling a safe and quick clean up process afterwards.

Recognised as a highly effective method of improving the safety of glass, Safety Film is recommended and endorsed by Local Authorities for use by child minders in order to protect children under their care against glass related injury.

SECURITY FILM - Acts as an extra barrier against intruders and vandals
 

For thieves, the most common means of accessing premises is by breaking a pane of glass, providing an “easy in - easy out” route.

By strengthening the glass with Sureguard Security Film the time and effort required to force entry is substantially increased.

In most cases the attention drawn by the constant sound of breaking glass from the repeated blows required in the attempt to gain access is sufficient deterrent.


These films are available in clear, obscure or mirrored options, which also provide visual security where necessary. With the occurrences of theft on the increase and the spiralling costs in insurance premiums can you afford not to protect your assets?

BOMB BLAST FILM - Reduces the extent and severity of injury from flying glass fragments
 

The worldwide political climate has made it more critical than ever for organisations to ensure they do everything possible to protect their personnel and property against terrorist attacks.

In the event of explosion, due to terrorism or other causes, a large percentage of injuries are caused by lethal shards of flying glass from windows or other forms of glazing.

When windows are subjected to explosive forces the shattered glass can also be responsible for major damage to property and disruption to the efficient running of business.

Sureguard anti- fragmentation film will hold glass together and will often remain in the frame dramatically reducing injury and damage as well as minimizing clear up time. Many companies have now implemented disaster recovery plans, which include the application of Anti Fragmentation Window Film in order to maintain employee safety and minimize disruption.

PRIVACY FILM- Converts existing clear glass to stylish modesty glass
 

Offices that are overlooked or are adjacent to pavements and passing foot traffic, where expensive equipment or sensitive information is in clear view, can be made more secure by using either Sureguard 24 hour or daylight Privacy Films.


The installation of these films quickly and easily change the clear glass into opaque or mirrored privacy glass preventing unauthorised viewing of restricted information and potential thieves from establishing the presence of valuable equipment.


Sometimes referred to as modesty film Sureguard provide a range of Privacy films with two
distinct design characteristics. One - Way or daylight hour privacy can be achieved allowing people to see out of a window while restricting vision through the glass from outside. Alternatively, it may be acceptable to stop vision in both directions. A number of opaque or acid etched films which "frost" existing glass while still allowing light transmission are available.

UV REDUCTION FILM - Reduce the Effects of Harmful Effects of the Sun
 

Goods, exhibits, artefacts or furnishings fade prematurely due primarily to ultra violet or UV transmission in direct sunlight.

This can prove costly and in the case of museum exhibits disastrous.

Applied to glass, U.V. Window Film from Sureguard provides a highly effective anti fade screen between the sun coming through glazing and valuable goods.

Ultra-Violet barriers in the film filter up to 99.7% of U.V. transmission protecting goods from rapid deterioration.

This barrier can be combined in a specialist film to give light and solar heat reduction therefore minimizing the three main causes of fading.

WINDOW GRAPHICS - Getting the message across
 

Window Graphics are normally produced using vinyls with an extremely wide range of colours and finishes available to choose from.

With thousands of colours and colour combinations available there is plenty of opportunity to get your important message across. A vast range of frosted, etched and sandblasted materials can also convert glazing into excellent reproductions of far more expensive manufactured glass. Traditional etched glass effects can be achieved at minimal cost and without the huge delivery delays now experienced from sand blasted glass suppliers.

Our own in house facilities can produce anything from simple opening time signs for shop doors to complex partitioning solutions for offices incorporating corporate identity.
 

Manifestation, sometimes referred to as fenestration, provides a simple and effective solution in making large expanses of glass apparent, therefore reducing the risk of accidental collision and injury. This is now a legal requirement as detailed in both Regulation 14 of the Workplace Health, Safety & Welfare Regulations and Building Regulations.

Sureguard provide an extensive range of manifestation solutions. Created from either coloured vinyls or a collection of frosted, dusted, etched and sandblasted effect materials, we are able to produce, in house, solutions ranging from simple dots and squares to more complex designs which can include corporate logos and/or advertising.

Although manifestation is traditionally produced and applied in strips alternatives include more extensive coverage of glass with full cover solutions becoming more and more popular.
