The company has been installing window film since 1985, and takes pride in the quality work they do. Many people are under the impression that only function of window tint is to enhance the aesthetic appeal of a home or office building. What they don’t know is that tinted windows have multiple benefits.

On hot, sunny days, the damaging ultraviolet rays of the sun can penetrate windows and damage skin, valuable furniture and artworks. It can cause fabrics to fade, paintings to lose their luster, and it can lighten or darken wooden structures. Window tinting installed by Solartex can combat the damage.

Aside from the UV-safety feature that comes with window tinting, it can be a money-saving investment.

This means that customers can avoid high energy bills, because they won't to consistently run the the air conditioning.

Working in an office with window tint can make it easier to look at computer screens, because the tinted film reduces the glare that can affect productivity. Also, window tint can eliminate the need for blinds, because employees will easily be able to glance outside without being bothered by the bright sun. On the other hand, people passing by office buildings with window tint won’t be able to look inside and distract employees. Daytime privacy is enhanced.

Decorative window tint, whether installed in a home or office, can add a slight touch of privacy while still enhancing the aesthetic appeal of the environment. Solartex can cut film into decorative, customer-approved design. The film, which comes in various colors, styles and shades, can be applied to interior or exterior glass, such as bathroom windows, waiting room doors, and conference room windows.

Another benefit of window tint is that it makes windows sturdier. If glass suddenly breaks, the window tint will hold it together and keep it from completely shattering and potentially causing injuries. Homes, and businesses that are prone to vandalism or burglaries, can protect themselves by installing tinted glass, because the tinted windows will be harder to smash than windows with no tint. In the case of a burglary, window tint can significantly slow the criminals down and possibly motivate them to give up.
