When it comes to owning your business, regardless of whether you're running it from home or renting a commercial space, window film is a great investment. It's not just aesthetic - window film provides a number of benefits such as energy efficiency, improved privacy (depending on your film choice), UV protection, and reduced glare. Here's a quick breakdown of the benefits in no particular order.

Reduced Glare

Depending on how you have your office laid out, this might not be that big of deal for you, however in my case, it's been a game changer. This simple yet effective solution allows you to control the amount of sunlight that pours in, making your office more comfortable and productive.

That light reflection on your monitor that's been bugging you? Gone!

‍

Squinting to be able to read what's on your monitor? Problem Solved!

‍

It might not seem like it, but this drastically changes your productivity levels. In my case, as a content creator, whenever I am typing blogs, editing photos, or stitching videos, I no longer am squinting, or adjusting my monitor's angle to get rid of the glare. I'm able to stay focused on the tasks at hand and ensure the content I'm producing looks good. Again, it's a game changer.

UV Protection

It's not something most business owners think about, but UV protection not only protects your furnishings, but also protects your staff (or if you're a sole entrepreneur, protects you).

‍

First and foremost, it safeguards your health and well-being. Prolonged exposure to UV rays can be harmful, leading to skin damage and increasing the risk of skin cancer. In a home office, where you may spend many hours near windows, window film acts as a barrier, reducing your UV exposure and ensuring a safer work environment. For commercial buildings, it's not only about the well-being of employees but also the responsibility of businesses to provide a safe workspace. Window film to the rescue!

‍

In addition to health concerns, UV protection is essential for preserving interior furnishings. Whether it's a home office or a full on commercial space, valuable furniture, flooring, and artwork can fade and deteriorate over time due to prolonged exposure to UV rays. By installing window film, you can extend the life of your assets and maintain the aesthetic appeal of your workspace.

It's the little things that count, and in the long run, it'll save you money. Cha-ching!

Improved Privacy

This is primarily pointing towards my peeps who work from home, but can be used in a high security, sensitive data, work environment.

‍

When I'm working from home, I love that my office is adjacent to a window, gives me natural lighting, however, I hate that anyone can really just peak through and see what I'm working on. luckily for me, it's not sensitive data, but still, I'd like to keep my work life private. Cue in window film.

‍

Depending on what window film you choose, you can have daytime privacy. As long as the sun's out and it's bright, no one is looking into your office.

‍

It allows you to work with peace of mind, knowing that your tasks, whether they involve sensitive data or not, remain confidential. This level of privacy ensures that your work life is just that—yours, and it doesn't have to be on public display. Whether you're at home or in a high-security office, window film is a versatile solution that lets you enjoy the benefits of natural light without compromising your privacy.

Energy Efficiency

It's time for that big money maker... well really more money saver. We all know how Minnesota weather can be - summers can bring scorching heat, while winters often dip into negative degrees. Window Film believe it or not helps control the amount of heat that that's transferred from windows. Let me explain:

‍

During the hot Minnesota summers, window film acts as a barrier to block excess heat from entering your space. It reduces the need for constant air conditioning, helping to keep indoor temperatures comfortable while lowering energy consumption. By controlling the heat gain, window film not only makes your environment more pleasant but also results in significant cost savings on cooling bills.

‍

Conversely, during the frigid winter months, window film helps to retain indoor heat. It acts as an insulating layer, preventing heat from escaping through your windows. This means your heating system works more efficiently, and you spend less on energy to keep your space warm and cozy.

‍

The energy-saving benefits of window film extend throughout the year in Minnesota, making it a wise investment for both comfort and cost-effectiveness. Whether you're dealing with summer heat or winter chills, window film is a reliable and efficient solution for your energy-saving needs in the Land of 10,000 Lakes.
