SmartShield™ Real-World Heat Test: 86% Less Solar Heat & 10°C Cooler Glass

SmartShield™ Real-World Heat Reduction Test

When it comes to solar control and indoor comfort, real performance matters. To demonstrate the true effectiveness of SmartShield™ Rare-Earth Solar Control Film, we conducted a same-day comparison test on the same window under real sunlight conditions.

Same day. Same window. Same conditions.
One side installed with SmartShield™, the other left untreated.


Before vs After – Clear Visibility

Even with the film applied, the view remains bright and natural. SmartShield™ reduces heat without darkening the window or affecting visibility. No heavy tinting, no colour distortion.


Solar Heat Penetration Test

Measured using a professional solar power meter:

Measurement Untreated Glass With SmartShield™
Solar Heat (W/m²) 33.5 W/m² 4.8 W/m²

Result: Approx. 86% reduction in solar heat penetration.


Surface Temperature Test

Measured using an infrared surface temperature tester:

Measurement Untreated Glass With SmartShield™
Glass Surface Temperature 45°C 35°C

10°C cooler glass surface with SmartShield™.
