What's the difference between privacy film and frosted film?

Frosted film is one type of privacy film. It gives an etched-glass look that blurs views while letting daylight through. Privacy film also covers reeded, patterned, one-way and fully obscure films, depending on how much you want to hide.

Can people see through frosted film at night?

No. Frosted film blurs views day and night. One-way film only works when it's brighter outside than inside, so after dark, with the lights on, people can see in. For ground-floor offices we usually recommend frosted or patterned film for that reason.

Is privacy film the same as a window manifestation?

Not quite. Manifestations are markings on glass doors and walls so people notice the glass — a safety requirement under the Workplace Regulations 1992. Privacy film covers larger areas to block views. We often install both in one visit.

Can window film be removed later?

Yes. Film comes off cleanly without damaging the glass, so it's easy to update when you rebrand or move. We also remove and replace old or peeling film.

How long does it take to fit window film?

From survey to installation usually takes one to two weeks. Most office jobs are fitted in one or two days, and we can work in the evening or at weekends.
