Keep your tenants happy, increase employee productivity, and even boost retail sales by bringing abundant natural light into your building. 3M™ Daylight Redirecting Film is designed to redirect sunlight from windows deeper into buildings to increase natural light, reducing the need for artificial lighting and saving you money on energy costs.
This window film is easy to integrate into new or existing windows with no extra hardware or infrastructure, and no additional maintenance or special cleaning.
How daylight redirecting film works.
-
3M™ Daylight Redirecting Film is installed in the upper portion of the window.
-
Daylight is redirected upwards toward the ceiling, allowing natural light to penetrate deeper into the building.
-
Made of micro-structured prisms, the film optically redirects over 80% of daylight upward and diffuses it for even distribution.
