Reduced Glare and HeatOffice buildings, schools, factories and homes are being constructed with increasing amounts of glass in their design and this makes them more aesthetically pleasing and increases their energy efficiency. However, the downside to this current trend is that such buildings tend to suffer from overheating in the summer and heat loss in the winter.The effects of excessive temperature in the work place are falling productivity (as much as 50%), increased illness and absenteeism and an increase in the number of accidents. There are stringent regulations governing heat stress and glare from P.C. Monitors such as the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) 1992 regulations and the European. Workplace legislation for thermal comfort to ensure that employers control their workforce’s environment. There are of course ways to correct these extremes of temperature using air conditioning and heating systems but they involve high cost energy inputs. Specialist heat and glare reduction films can reduce solar heat by up to 80% and the same films with a low emissitivity layer can significantly reduce heat loss in winter. This will enable you to increase the energy efficiency of your building and lower gas and electricity bills and improve the productivity of your workforce.
