Energy efficiency and UV protection
Up to 90% solar energy reduction and up to 99% UV block help protect furniture and reduce cooling runs. Less heat means lower A/C use and smaller monthly bills.
Privacy and décor: frosted and decorative options
We offer frosted and patterned films that keep privacy without losing natural light. These finishes suit bathrooms, street‑facing rooms and nurseries while complementing décor.
Suggested room-by-room pairings
| Room | Size (mm) | Recommended film | Primary goal |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bathroom | 900×900 | Frosted decorative | Privacy / soft light |
| Living room | 2000×1559 | Solar control (reflective) | Heat reduction / cooling |

Film options and performance specs that fit your tinting needs
Select films designed to match performance goals — from high solar rejection to decorative privacy — without sacrificing daylight. We group options into five clear families so you can compare technical specs quickly.
Our Film Options: Ceramic, Carbon & Safety Tints
- Solar control: for heat and energy management.
- Privacy: daytime obscurity while keeping light.
- Reflective: high TSER and strong glare reduction.
- Frosted/decorative: style with screening and soft light.
- Safety/security: glass-strengthening and fragment retention.
Table-ready performance metrics
Below are typical ranges you can drop straight into a comparison table or spec sheet.
| Category | VLT (%) | UV block | TSER range (%) | Warranty |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Solar control | 10–70 | Up to 99% | 30–80 | 5–10 years |
| Privacy | 5–50 | Up to 99% | 10–50 | 3–7 years |
| Reflective | 5–40 | Up to 99% | 40–85 | 5–12 years |
| Frosted / decorative | 40–90 | 80–99% | 5–30 | 3–7 years |
| Safety / security | 30–80 | Up to 99% | Varies | 5–15 years |
How to align specs with goals: choose high TSER for west‑facing façades, higher VLT where daylight is vital, and safety films where impact resistance matters.
“Stacking privacy with safety can give both screening and glass retention when single-film performance falls short.”
We also note installation factors — glass type, low‑E coatings and thermal breakage risk — and recommend sample demos so you can judge colour, haze and daylight in situ.
Transparent Pricing: Affordable Tint Packages for Every Budget
We set out transparent rates so customers can compare film options and expected returns. Clear pricing helps you see short‑term costs and long‑term savings on cooling bills and asset protection.

| Smash‑and‑Grab | R1,500–R4,000 | Security film, fragment retention | Improved glass strength, theft deterrent |
Residential and commercial rates
Residential: R100–R500 per m² for basic to ceramic films. Decorative/frosted options typically R200–R400 per m².

Our simple process: from quote to professional installation
We make the path from first enquiry to finished fit straightforward and transparent. Book a slot, let us measure and advise, receive a clear written quote, then we schedule an installation that fits your routine.
Book, measure, quote, schedule — we come to you
Step 1: Book online or by phone and we confirm a convenient date and time. We explain what to expect on the day so you can prepare.
Step 2: We arrive, measure precisely, review your tinting needs and show samples. We then provide a written quote with options and timeline.
Step 3: We schedule the installation and coordinate access, ensuring minimal disruption to your household or business.
Installation standards, curing times and aftercare
Step 4: Trained installers perform a professional fit following strict quality checks. Typical install speed is ~4 m² per hour, which helps plan phased works.
Curing varies by film type and weather. Mild haziness or tiny moisture pockets may appear; these normally clear as the film cures over days to weeks.
Aftercare: wait 7–14 days before first clean for most films. Use soft cloths and a mild detergent. We supply care instructions and warranty documents at handover.
| Role | Duration | Preparation |
|---|---|---|
| Survey & measure | 30–60 mins | Clear sills; grant access |
| Quote & selection | Same day or 24 hrs | Decide film grade |
| Installation | 4 m² per hour (typical) | Provide parking / access |
| Cure & follow-up | Days to weeks | Avoid cleaning early |
“We perform a final walkthrough and leave you a document pack with warranty and care guidance.”
Please tell us if anything needs fine‑tuning after installation — we welcome feedback and will respond promptly to ensure quality and satisfaction.

Performance varies by product, but high-quality films can block up to 99% of UV rays, significantly reduce solar heat gain and cut glare for a more comfortable interior. We’ll match film specs to your needs and room orientation for optimal results.
Can you recommend solutions for specific rooms in a home?
Certainly. We suggest high UV-blocking solar films for sun-facing lounges and conservatories, frosted or decorative films for bathrooms and bedrooms where privacy matters, and clear low-e or insulating films for windows that need energy efficiency without losing natural light.
How do films help commercial spaces and offices?
Films reduce glare on screens, improve thermal comfort, protect furnishings and help manage energy costs. They also support brand aesthetics through decorative treatments and increase security with safety films that resist forced entry or hold glass together if broken.
