The Sunbrella Series is a range of non-reflective window films designed to provide solar control while offering different levels of visible light transmission. The range includes shades such as Charcoal, Grey, Black, Orchid Blue, Green and Brown, with different VLT options.

The Sunbrella Series is presented in the document as a solar-control window film range, with properties including UV rejection, infrared heat rejection, total solar energy rejection and glare reduction. Its different VLT levels can also affect how much visibility and light pass through the glass.

The shade card identifies Sunbrella films as non-reflective, but it does not explain the film's manufacturing or dye technology. Therefore, the document does not provide enough information to describe specifically how its dyed construction works.

The range is suitable where users want to control visible light, glare, UV and solar energy while maintaining a non-reflective appearance. The available VLT and shade options allow different levels of light transmission.

The Sunbrella Series films are 1 mil thick according to the product specifications in the shade card. The listed films are specified as 1 Ply, 1 Mil.

The Sunbrella Series films shown in the shade card are 1-ply, 1-mil films. The product specification identifies the film construction as 1 ply and its thickness as 1 mil. The shade card does not provide a detailed comparison between 1-ply and 2-ply construction.

The Sunbrella Series is available in multiple non-reflective shades, including; Charcoal, Grey, Black, Orchid, Blue, Green & Brown. Each shade is available in selected VLT options depending on the colour.

The Sunbrella Series shade card lists Charcoal, Grey and Black, but does not list Smoke or Graphite. The available Charcoal, Grey and Black shades differ in colour appearance, VLT and solar-control performance across their respective variants.

Yes. The Sunbrella Series includes coloured window film options such as Orchid Blue and Green. Orchid Blue is listed in 5% and 20% VLT options, while Green is listed in 39%, 51% and 70% VLT options in the shade card.

The Sunbrella Series includes neutral shades such as Grey, Charcoal and Black, along with coloured options such as Orchid Blue, Green and Brown. The shade card does not provide a specific visual ranking of the shades by exterior neutrality, so the final appearance can vary depending on the glass and installation environment.

For a darker appearance, the Sunbrella Series offers 5% VLT options in shades including Charcoal, Grey, Black and Orchid Blue. A 5% VLT film allows approximately 5% of visible light to pass through the film, making it one of the darkest options in the range.

VLT, or Visible Light Transmission, varies by Sunbrella shade. The shade card shows options ranging from approximately 5% to 70% VLT, including 5%, 15%, 19%, 20%, 35%, 39%, 41%, 50%, 51%, 68%, 69% and 70% variants.

VLT, or Visible Light Transmission, indicates how much visible light passes through the window film. A lower VLT means less visible light passes through, while a higher VLT allows more natural light into the space.

If your priority is reduced visibility through the glass, a lower VLT option provides a darker appearance. The Sunbrella Series includes 5% VLT, its lowest listed VLT level, in several shades. However, actual privacy also depends on indoor and outdoor lighting conditions.

Choose a higher VLT Sunbrella film if maintaining natural light is a priority. The range includes options up to approximately 70% VLT, including Grey 70 and Green 70, which transmit significantly more visible light than 5%, 20% or 35% films.

5% VLT is a very low visible light transmission option, allowing only about 5% of visible light through the film. Whether it is suitable for a home or office depends on the amount of natural light required, the size and orientation of the windows, and the desired level of visual privacy.

The Sunbrella shade card identifies different product codes for different shades. For example, CS-111 is associated with Charcoal, CS-131 with Grey and CS-141 with Black. The shade card does not list CS-101 and CS-121 or provide a separate technical comparison for these codes.

The level of daytime privacy depends on the VLT selected and the lighting conditions on either side of the glass. Lower-VLT films allow less visible light through and create a darker appearance. The Sunbrella shade card does not provide a numerical daytime privacy rating.

Night-time privacy depends on the lighting conditions inside and outside the building. The Sunbrella shade card does not specify a night-time privacy rating, so the film should not be described as providing complete privacy at night based on this product document alone.

The amount of visible light transmitted through Sunbrella film depends on its VLT level. Higher-VLT films transmit more visible light, while lower-VLT films transmit less. Actual outside visibility also depends on lighting conditions and the glass installation.

The Sunbrella Series can be considered for glass applications where solar control, glare reduction, UV rejection and a non-reflective appearance are required. However, the shade card does not specifically list bathrooms, meeting rooms or partitions as designated applications.

The Sunbrella Series is a non-reflective window film range available in different tinted shades, rather than a frosted film range. The shade card lists colours such as Charcoal, Grey, Black, Orchid Blue, Green and Brown, each with specific VLT values.

The Cosmo Sunshield Sunbrella Series window film is installed on the inside surface of the glass. Professional installation helps ensure proper application, a clean finish and optimal performance of the window film.

The Sunbrella Series is applied to the inside surface of the glass. Interior installation helps protect the film from direct exposure to external weather conditions while providing its solar-control and glare-reduction benefits.

No, Cosmo Sunshield Sunbrella Series film does not turn purple over time. The film is designed to maintain its colour and appearance over its service life when properly installed and maintained.
