    PDLC TECHNOLOGY

    The Pro Display Group have been manufacturing Switchable Smart Glass solutions for over 20 years with our Intelligent Glass division the global leader offering the widest range of patented Smart Glass products on the market.

    PDLC technology comprises a liquid crystal interlayer sandwiched between ITO and PET film layers. In it’s off (frosted) state the liquid crystals are scattered in a way that causes light waves to refract and reflect away from the surface. When an electrical current is applied the liquid crystals then align allowing light to pass through (transparent).

    ELIMINATE GLARE & HEAT GAIN

    Switchable smart film technology offers a UV stable / environmentally friendly solution reducing solar heat gain by up to 40%. Non-adhesive versions of our Smart Film are available for glass companies looking to laminate and create Smart Glass.

    Smart glass film is predominantly used for offices, hotels, hospitals, yachts, museums and homes while more unique applications include dog pen’s, casino roulette wheels and luxury handbags to name a few!

    Using Switchable Film to Combat Glare

    SWITCHABLE PROJECTION FILM

    Our smart window film also transforms into a projector screen allowing you to display 4K or HD content directly on the film using rear projection. Custom front projection options are also available on request.

    Smart Glass film can be installed onto existing glass or Plexiglas without the need for water or any additional adhesives. Simply peel and stick to install the smart film with a squeegee and then wire back to the transformer. The transformer can then be switched on or off using our stylish RF remotes, a standard light switch or automation system.

    WHAT IS SWITCHABLE FILM?

    Switchable film is a retrofit, cost-effective alternative to smart glass technology that is designed to be applied to existing transparent surfaces.

    Smart film works in the same way as switchable glass, appearing opaque when turned off and when power is applied turns clear.

    HOW DO I CHOOSE BETWEEN SWITCHABLE GLASS AND SWITCHABLE FILM?

    Whilst switchable film does offer a more cost-effective alternative to smart glass, it’s not suitable for all environments. Whilst ideal for enhancing existing glazing, skylights and glass partitions, switchable film is not suitable for use in bathroom and wet room environments. In bathroom or healthcare applications we recommend laminate switchable glass where the PDLC film is sealed as an interlayer between 2 panels of glass making it also the ideal choice for use in high traffic environments.

    WHERE CAN I USE SWITCHABLE FILM?

    The self-adhesive nature of switchable film makes it the perfect privacy solution for a quick turnaround that’s also budget-friendly. Smart film is a popular choice for residential enhancements including windows, skylights and conservatories but is also popular in corporate settings including upgrading meeting rooms and office spaces.

    Our Switchable Film is also a popular choice for projection with the likes of luxury retail stores like Harrods and jewellers Anil Arjandas, incorporating smart projection film into their window displays. Switchable projection film has also been favoured in the education sector, museums, product launches, exhibitions and POS displays.

    CAN I INSTALL SWITCHABLE FILM MYSELF?

    Yes, you can install Switchable Film yourself, the film is manufactured with a self-adhesive layer on one side (peel and stick) which makes it easy to apply with a sign fitting squeegee. We manufacture the film to your measurements before dispatch to ensure it’s ready to install on arrival.

    CAN YOU PROJECT ONTO SWITCHABLE FILM?

    Yes, you can project onto switchable film. Smart film offers a versatile rear projection screen with HD/4K quality when switched to frosted used previously by the likes of Rolls Royce and Harrods.
