What Is Solar Bronze?
Solar Bronze adds a warm copper finish to your windows. It suits buildings with brick, timber, sandstone or other earthy colours, where a silver or grey film would look out of place.
It is a reflective film, so it rejects a lot of heat (up to 75%) and gives good daytime privacy, while still letting in enough natural light.
It comes in two shades: Solar Bronze 20 and Solar Bronze 35.
Warranty: Solar Gard manufacturer warranty, terms confirmed in your quote.
Great for
- Brick, timber or sandstone buildings
- Matching existing bronze-tinted glass
- Hot west and north-facing windows
- Daytime privacy
Think twice if
- You want a neutral or clear look
- Your strata restricts reflective or coloured film
- You want a clear view out at night
