Glass Films Europe

This CPD examines the benefits and considerations of applied window films. This includes looking at the health and safety aspects of window film, as well as selecting the correct window film for your project. It will also cover new technologies such as cloaking technology film and how this can improve data privacy within a working environment. By the end of the seminar you should have a greater understanding of: - Why window film is used and which environments they are used within- How to specify/advise on the correct applied window film for your project- How polarisation works and how this can be applied to cloaking technology film- The orientations that work with cloaking technology film and the LED screen technology

This CPD explores how decorative window films enhance architectural design by providing privacy, safety, and aesthetic versatility while supporting sustainability goals. It compares films with traditional glazing, highlighting their cost-effectiveness, ease of installation, and ability to reduce embodied carbon through retrofitting. The session also covers key standards, such as Parts K, M, and B of the Building Regulations, and how films can contribute to BREEAM, LEED, and WELL certifications—offering architects a flexible, compliant, and sustainable solution for modern glass design.

Privacy in open-plan offices is a challenge. While transparency aids collaboration, it also poses risks; confidential meetings and sensitive data can be seen through glass partitions. This CPD explores polarisation cloaking technology, protecting information while maintaining an open aesthetic.
