Fading

The causes of fading:

 

 

3M Window Films address the three major causes of fading. 3M Window Films are designed to reduce the effects of solar heat and visible light on your furnishings and will block up to 99% of the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays, which are the single largest cause of fading. Depending on the film you choose, you can enjoy a 79% reduction in the sun's heat. While no film can stop fading completely, 3M films dramatically slow the progress of fading to keep your home looking beautiful.

Ultraviolet rays are the primary cause of skin cancer. By blocking up to 99% of sun's UV rays, 3M films help protect your family. By now most people are aware that prolonged exposure to sunlight can lead to skin cancer. But what most people don't realize is that being inside your home doesn't mean you are protected from the sun's rays. In fact, untreated glass does very little to protect your skin from cancer causing UV rays. 3M films are designed to filter out both UV-A and UV-B rays.
