Commercial window film · Pinellas Park, Florida
Offices, warehouses, storefronts. Film is the only glass upgrade that costs a fraction of new windows, goes in after everybody has gone home, and shows up on the next cooling bill.
Heat and glare at work
Nobody complains about a building. They complain about a desk. On bare glass the sun cooks the desks nearest the window and the heat works its way back across the floor, so the whole floor runs warm and the window row runs hot. Turn the film on and watch every desk cool down, from the glass to the elevators.
12°F
Film stops most of the sun’s heat at the glass before it gets into the room, so every desk cools down, the window row most of all, and the cooling plant does less work. On a floor like this that is about fifteen percent off the cooling bill.
Every kind of commercial glass
Everybody calls asking for window tinting. What an office needs isn’t what a warehouse needs, and neither of them is what a clinic needs. Pick the building you actually run.
78% heat · 87% glare
The sun lands on the desks by the windows, the thermostat comes down to fix it, and everybody past the second row brings a sweater. Film evens the floor out so the thermostat can go back up — which is the part that shows up on the bill rather than in the complaints inbox.
What we would specify
A barely-there solar film that keeps the view and the daylight exactly as they were.
Landlord approval, historic buildings, double-pane windows and factory coatings all change the answer. Every job here starts with us standing in front of the glass.
Warehousing and logistics
Heat gets in through the roof, rises, and hangs up in the rafters until the doors open at six. Nobody is going to air-condition a whole warehouse, so the only move that works is stopping the heat at the skylight it came in through. Pick a level and see what it is costing you.
Skylights are usually ten to fifteen percent of the roof, and they catch the sun more directly than any window you own. Nothing shades them and nobody ever looks at them. By early afternoon the air up in the rafters is well over a hundred, and none of it has anywhere to go.
The commercial range
Heat, cold, safety, privacy, vandalism and the glass you can’t reach are six separate products. A typical building takes two or three of them in different rooms — which is cheaper than putting the expensive one everywhere and still not fixing the lobby.
78% heat · 99% UV
Solar control
Ceramic solar film: most of the sun’s heat turned back at the glass and effectively all of the UV, with your windows still looking like windows. No metal in it, so nothing happens to wifi, door access, alarm sensors or the phone in somebody’s pocket.

Insulating film
A film that bounces your heating back into the room instead of letting single-pane glass throw it at the parking lot. It’s the film for older buildings, historic storefronts and anywhere replacing the windows is either unaffordable or not allowed.
4–12 mil clear
Safety and security
A thick clear layer bonded to the inside of the pane. It doesn’t make a storefront burglar-proof and we won’t tell you it does — what it does is hold a broken pane together, buy minutes on a smash-and-grab, and keep falling glass off a room full of people.
Full pane or banded
Privacy and frosted
An etched-glass look on the inside of the pane, cut as a full panel or a band at eye level. It gives the room privacy, it stops people walking face-first into full-height glass — and it can carry your own logo cut into the frost.
Peels off, glass stays
Anti-graffiti
A clear sacrificial layer over glass, mirrors and elevator panels. Scratches, tags and etching go into the film instead of the glass, and the film peels off in an afternoon. Replacing a storefront pane is a four-figure job with scaffolding; replacing this is a phone call.
Outside face
Exterior films
Atriums, skylights, glass towers and anywhere the inside face can’t be reached or is the wrong side to work on. The warranty is shorter than interior film and we’ll say so up front — but it’s the difference between doing the job and not doing it.
Your options
A successful specification starts with how the space is used. Identify the occupied rooms, the uncomfortable glass and the access the installation will need.
Map the desks and meeting rooms affected by sun or glare. A targeted plan can address the problem areas without assuming every pane needs the same film.
Share window directions and the hours the rooms are occupied.
Meeting rooms, reception glass and street-facing spaces can need different levels of screening. Discuss full panes, bands and decorative finishes.
Check samples from both sides of the glass.
Agree how the installer will reach each pane and which spaces must remain available. Building approvals and suitable working hours belong in the plan.
Confirm the glass specification before ordering film.
Explore the savings
The cost of the installation and the energy it saves both affect payback. Move the glass area to explore an example, then discuss your building, chosen film and a project-specific quote with our team.
Illustrative example in USD — not a quote or a prediction for your building.
Example inputs: USD $7.40 per sq ft installed and USD $2.70 per sq ft in annual cooling savings, over 10 years. These fixed assumptions are not this business’s prices or current local energy rates. Actual results depend on the building, climate, energy use and chosen film.

How a commercial job runs
Window film is the rare building improvement with no dust, no drilling, no paint and no smell. It goes on the inside of glass you already own, with the fitting planned around how you use the building.
Every pane measured, which way it faces noted, and the glass itself identified — double-pane, coated, tempered, laminated, wired. Putting the wrong film on a double-pane window is how glass ends up cracked and a window warranty ends up void, so this happens before anything is priced.
Priced wall by wall, with the windows that don’t need film taken out of the number rather than quietly left in it. North-facing glass, shaded glass and anything already coated usually comes off the list — it’s a shorter quote than most people expect.
Evenings, weekends or a floor at a time can be talked through when the fitting is planned, with any badges, safety paperwork and access arranged first. Nothing is drilled, nothing is sprayed, and there’s nothing to air out afterwards.
A walk around with whoever runs the building, anything they catch fixed on the spot, and warranty papers issued for the film and for the work. The film looks faintly hazy for a few days while the installation water dries out — that’s meant to happen, and cleaning it early is the one way to spoil it.
Before you book
Commercial window film usually costs from $6 to $14 per square foot fitted. The price depends on how much glass there is, the film you choose and how easy the windows are to reach.
Yes. We can fit film before or after hours, at weekends or in stages, so the building keeps running.
No. Each side of a building can have its own film: solar film where the sun hits, privacy film for meeting rooms and safety film where it is needed.
Frosted film, frosted bands or full-height privacy film. You can see samples on your own glass first.
The address, roughly how much glass, which rooms and what you want to fix. Plans or photos help.
Yes. Union car film comes with Union’s limited lifetime warranty against bubbling, peeling and fading on qualifying installs.
