Daytime privacy,
and the most heat stopped.
A platinum-tone reflective film with dual-sided reflection. The strongest solar control in the architectural range, and privacy that works in daylight.
Dual Silver at a glance
Dual Silver rejects 76% of total solar energy — more than anything else we fit on a building. The platinum reflection is what buys the daytime privacy, and it is the reason commercial glass so often uses it.
What it does for the room
The strongest solar control
76% TSER and 90% infrared rejection. If the goal is a cooler building and a lower power bill, this is the one.
Privacy in daylight
Dual-sided reflection means people outside see the reflection, not your living room. It reverses at night when your lights are on and it is dark outside.
Built for big glass
Shopfronts, office towers and large residential windows — the surfaces where solar gain is a real running cost.
The same view, at each shade
Official Zivent comparison. Pick by how much light you want to keep — the heat performance holds better across the range than you would expect.
VLT figures are indicative and can vary by 3–5% depending on measurement conditions and the glass they are applied to.

VLT visible light transmission — how much daylight the window keeps; lower is darker · IRR infrared rejection — the heat you feel through the glass · UVR UV rejection — what fades floors, curtains and furniture · TSER total solar energy rejection — all the sun's heat, the best single number · VLR int / ext visible light reflectance, inside face / outside face — a high exterior figure is what reads as a mirror from the street · Thickness the film itself; heat films are thin, safety films are not · SC shading coefficient — solar heat let through compared with plain glass; lower is better · SHGC solar heat gain coefficient — the share of solar heat that reaches the room; lower is better, and it is the figure a building specification asks for.
Where Dual Silver goes
Commercial glass, shopfronts, west-facing walls of glass, and homes overlooked by a street or neighbours.

Balance
A nano-carbon film on a metal base in a black brown tone. Low reflection, strong heat control, and the best visibility in the architectural range.

Pure nano-ceramic with remarkably low visible reflection. Close to invisible on the window, which is the point.

Clear film that holds glass together if it breaks. A different job from heat control.
