When you have a polycarbonate window or rooflight through which the sun’s rays can easily penetrate and compromise your enjoyment of the given space, it makes sense to consider the wealth of dedicated heat control films on the market.
However, you could easily find yourself purchasing a standard reflective film that does not adhere cleanly to the plastic surface of your windows, due to having been conceived for application to glass.
This is why, here at Stockfilms, we would urge you to investigate our latest solar reflective films that incorporate a special adhesive for application to a polycarbonate surface. It’ll ensure that you do not notice your window films suffering from the dreaded ‘bubbling up’ – but these are also films that deliver exceptional performance as far as heat control is concerned.
Which films do we offer to make your space more hospitable?
There can be few better heat rejection options on a building with polycarbonate windows than the Opalux Silver 20 film for Polycarbonate that we have in stock right now. In areas where you may otherwise suffer the effects of severe solar heat gains and problems with glare, this film can be invaluable, rejecting up to 99% of UV rays and 78% of total solar energy.
This externally applied reflective film is also scratch-resistant, and is a great choice for sites where it is not viable to undertake what would be the costly and disruptive large-scale replacement of existing glazing.
However, there is another well-known solution for polycarbonate windows that we are delighted to be able to supply here at Stockfilms: Opalux Suncool. This film, too, is highly effective in its filtering of harmful UV rays, except that it is installed from the inside. It is often fitted to conservatory polycarbonate rooflights, and from the outside during the day, has a pleasing silver reflective look, whereas from the inside, only a light tint is noticeable.

Installing heat control films like those explained above doesn’t just help to make your space more comfortable to spend time in, but can also reduce cooling costs and slow down the fading of any furniture and furnishings that would otherwise feel the full force of the sun.
