Commercial buildings often have many glass windows and doors, allowing for natural light and views of the outside world. However, glass buildings are vulnerable to acts of vandalism, whether it’s property damage due to broken windows or graffiti. When artists tag, etch, paint, or scratch glass, it’s difficult and expensive to repair. In the United States alone, efforts to prevent and lessen graffiti incur annual costs of $12 billion. Get vandalism protection by investing in 3M Anti-Graffiti Window Film.
How Anti-Graffiti Film Offers Defense Against Vandalism
Every 3.5 seconds, a property crime takes place. There are several ways 3M Anti-Graffiti Window Film offers vandalism protection to protect your building and save you money:
- Protects Glass from Damage
- Easy to ReplaceÂ
- Offers Added Benefits
Protects Glass from Damage
Anti-graffiti film adheres to the exterior of glass surfaces to act as a barrier in an act of vandalism. By acting as a layer of defense, it protects the glass against acid etching, tagging with spray paint, and light scratches. Without window film designed to withstand the impact of vandalism, it is easy for vandals to damage glass, leaving you with a hefty repair bill. Not only is it expensive to replace, but it also contributes to more waste.
Easy to Replace
One of the great things about using anti-graffiti film is that it’s just as easy to replace as it is to install. While installation takes only ten minutes for an average storefront window, our installers can remove it just as fast. That means if your property gets vandalized, you don’t have to wait to get the glass repaired. This helps protect the image of your company and prevent any downtime due to repairs.
Offers Added Benefits
Along with protecting against vandalism, anti-graffiti window tinting offers 99% UV rejection to protect against fading. Over time, flooring, artwork, textiles, display merchandise, furniture, and other interior items can fade due to sunlight coming in through the glass. Adding window film to glass protects against the leading cause of fading – UV rays. Not to mention, UV protection is essential for helping to prevent skin cancer, premature aging, and other skin damage.
