GUARDIAN Energy Control Window Film
The CO2 emissions from air conditioning systems used to counteract solar energy gain through windows can be significantly reduced if you prevent the energy passing through the windows in the first place by applying solar energy control window film to the glass.
In fact, research by the Building Research Establishment (BRE) in the UK shows that on average, 40% of the load placed on air conditioning in offices comes from direct solar energy gain through the windows.
A high performance reflective window film could reduce CO2 emissions by as much as 30%. See the table below to see how much energy control can be achieved with window film.

Reducing CO2 emissions with energy control window films will also save on energy control costs, with a payback period which could be as little as three years. The energy control window film will also provide a more comfortable workplace, increasing productivity and enabling compliance with health and safety legislation.
GUARDIAN has the expertise to identify the correct energy control window film for each individual building, generating a model for the cooling energy demand, taking into account the glazing system in the building and producing an analysis of the predicted energy savings compared with current use, based upon the internationally recognised DOE-2 simulation software.
Energy control window film has a significant part to play in reducing global warming from emissions of carbon dioxide into our earth’s atmosphere. You will start reducing your CO2 emissions the moment the energy control window film is applied to your glass – act now!
