Architecture Film Spec Guide
How to read building film specifications
Architecture film should be chosen by heat control, privacy, reflection, visibility and glass safety requirements.
IRR
Infrared Rejection. Higher IRR helps reduce heat felt through glass, especially on exposed north and west-facing windows.
TSER
Total Solar Energy Rejected. A higher TSER is useful when heat reduction is the main goal.
VLR
Visible Light Reflection. Higher exterior reflection can improve daytime privacy but gives a more mirror-like appearance.
SHGC
Solar Heat Gain Coefficient. Lower SHGC generally means less solar heat enters the room.
Safety Thickness
Safety films are measured in mil and µm. The correct thickness depends on glass size, risk level and site purpose.
