Protection from Fading
Bekaert is protecting the valuable displays and artwork that were threatened by potential ultraviolet damage. The rooms would grow uncomfortably hot and there was bright glare coming off the glass displays. To add to the challenge, since the museum a historic building, it was very important that the Bekaert solution not alter the Castle’s grand Victorian appearance.
BOLSOVER CASTLE, Chesterfield, U.K.
The sun’s ultraviolet radiation, heat and light are major contributors to the fading and deterioration of fabrics, carpets, furnishings, storefront displays and other interior items. All Bekaert® films reject a up to 99% of the harmful and damaging ultraviolet radiation, and varying amounts of heat and light. This helps protect the contents of your building from premature damage, and your occupants from ultraviolet health threats.
While nothing prevents fading entirely, Bekaert window film is one of the most effective and attractive ways to prolong the life of your precious valuables.
Increased Fade Resistance
Harmful ultraviolet radiation is constantly pouring through your windows, making distant memories of the rich colors that used to adorn your fabrics, art and woodwork. Additionally, windows allow in large amounts of solar heat and visible light - two serious contributors to fading. Bekaert window film helps
fight these enemies of your interior by keeping up to 99% of ultraviolet radiation out of your home, and dramatically reducing the solar heat and visible light that washout the color of your valuables. It’s like sunscreen for your home or office– significantly increasing the life and beauty of your interior.
Protection from Skin Cancer
According to the American Academy of Dermatology, more than 1 million new cases of skin cancer are diagnosed each year. Of these cases, more than 111,900 are melanoma, a cancer that claims nearly 8,000 lives annually.
Bekaert window film helps protect you from premature skin aging and some potential skin cancers with up to 99% UV protection. Many people do not realize they are exposed to the sun while at work or at home because damaging UV rays penetrate glass.
The simple, professional installation of Bekaert window film can help prevent the devastating effects of ultraviolet rays, such as premature aging, wrinkles, sunspots and even skin cancer. Bekaert Panorama® window film carries The Skin Cancer Foundation’s Seal of Recommendation.
