Solar Gard UV Protection
Even indoors, exposure to excessive Ultraviolet light and heat can cost you more than you probably realize. UV light and solar heat coming through any window can cause fading and irreparable damage to everything from your merchandise, furnishing, and precious artifacts, to your very own skin. Solar Gard films reject solar heat and block over 99% of harmful UV light – protecting your valuable assets and interior furnishings from expensive sun damage.
The sun’s ultraviolet radiation, heat, and light cause fading, and deterioration of fabrics, carpets, furnishings, storefront displays, and other interior items. All Solar Gard films reject up to 99% of harmful ultraviolet radiation, and varying amounts of heat and light. This helps dramatically reduce damage to your interiors and furnishings, keeping them in like-new condition longer.

Armorcoat makes the government a safer place to work
The U.S. government has always implemented the most stringent and fail-safe security and safety measures in its facilities. But after the shocking events of September 11, it was clear that additional protection was immediately needed on many government facilities, especially the most high profile and potentially targeted buildings located in the U.S. capital.
Armorcoat was installed on numerous prestigious government facilities, such as the Department of Energy, J. Edgar Hoover FBI Building, Hubert Humphrey Building, the National Imagery & Mapping Agent, and U.S. Capitol to name a few. Working from the moment offices closed until government employees returned in the mornings, installation on 15 government buildings was completed in a record 33 working days.
Solar Gard Energy Efficiency
These days, the need to conserve energy, reduce your company’s carbon footprint and conform to stricter environment standards has never been greater. At the same time, the cost of energy continues to rise – affecting your company’s bottom line. With proven heat-rejection properties, Solar Gard films help your business consume less energy by keeping interior temperatures more controllable and stable. This reduces the need for air conditioning, moderating extreme peaks in usage to allow your cooling system to operate more efficiently and inexpensively.
Solar Gard provides a cool facade for ASEM Tower
The ASEM Tower in Seoul, South Korea is one of the most coveted commercial addresses in the country. The breathtaking structure stands at an impressive 42-stories high and boasts 1,1450,000 square feet (135,000 square meters) of office space. Since the facade is comprised mainly of glass and its broadest faces stand in the direct path of the sun, office workers suffered through intense heat and distracting glare.
To solve the problem, building management retrofitted the two largest faces of the building with 80,000 square feet (7,400 square meters) of Solar Gard Silver 20. The results were ideal. Room temperatures decreased by 7° to 11° F (4° TO 6° C), utility costs went down, and tenants were able to work more comfortably.
