Discover the best solution on the market for interior sun protection

Reflect, Reject, Protect

Our high-performance roller shade film systems deliver glare protection, thermal insulation, UV protection, outstanding visibility, and energy savings — all in one solution, with zero compromise.

Solar_heat_challenge

The Challenge

Solar radiation fills indoor spaces with natural light and keeps you visually connected to the outside world. However, excessive solar radiation can cause glare, overheating, and discomfort.

Once solar radiation enters a building, it converts into heat.

 
Solar_heat_solution

The Solution

Block the heat before it builds up.
 
That's where RHODETEC shades films come in:
 
Installed on the inside, they reflect solar energy back through the glass — because glass allows reflected rays to pass equally in both directions.
 
Proven performance:
 
  • Films reflect up to 84% of solar energy
  • Combined with glazing, they can block over 85% of infrared rays
  • Significantly reduce heat build-up and air conditioning costs

The Full Spectrum of Performance

Glare Protection
  • Filters intense light without darkening the room
  • Maintains optimal lighting levels
  • Creates glare-free zones at desks and screens
  • Meets workplace lighting standards
  • Greater comfort without a closed-in feeling
Thermal Protection
  • Reflects solar radiation
  • Blocks long-wave infrared radiation
  • Prevents indoor spaces from overheating
  • Maintains a comfortable indoor climate
  • Reduces air conditioning usage and costs

 

Clear Outside View
  • Exceptional clarity with no visual distortion
  • Maintains full transparency
  • Improves orientation and overall well-being
  • Supports circadian rhythm
  • Eliminates interior mirror effect
Reduced Energy Consumption
  • Improves the performance of glazed facades
  • Summer: blocks heat and reduces cooling needs
  • Winter: adds insulation and slows heat loss
  • Reduces HVAC usage year-round
  • Helps meet energy goals and ESG sustainability requirements
UV Protection
  • Blocks nearly 100% of harmful UV rays
  • Protects interiors from fading and sun-related deterioration
  • Reduces skin exposure and long-term health risks
  • Fully transparent — doesn't affect the appearance of windows

 

Natural Light
  • Preserves the full daylight spectrum
  • Maintains bright, natural light
  • Boosts mood and reduces fatigue
  • Promotes mental alertness throughout the day

Key Technical Specs

g-value reduced down to 0.13

The g-value (also known as the Solar Heat Gain Coefficient – SHGC) measures how much solar energy enters a space through the window system.

With RHODETEC shade films, this value can be reduced down to 0.13* (meaning up to 87% total solar energy rejection), which qualifies as the highest Class 4 rating per EN 14501 standard.

* Calculated with single glazing (4 mm) per EN ISO 52022-3 (reference conditions)

Shading coefficient down to 0.15

The shading coefficient (SC) indicates how effectively a solar protection system reduces solar heat gain entering a building.

With RHODETEC shade films, this value can be reduced down to 0.15.

 
Glare Control and Clear View

RHODETEC shade films preserve natural light and an unobstructed outside view (rated Class 2* per EN 14501:2021), while delivering high glare control (Class 4* per EN 14501:2021) — all without compromising their outstanding solar control performance (low g-value, low SC).

* Tested and certified by the Fraunhofer ISE Institute

Full UV Protection

RHODETEC shade films block up to 99% of harmful UV rays. 

Year-Round Energy Savings

Using RHODETEC shade films can cut annual cooling energy costs by up to 30%, with a return on investment in 3 to 5 years.
