Let in the light. Not the heat. 3M™ Sun Control Window Film Prestige Series takes sun control to a whole new level for your building. Using non-metallized, multi-layer optical film and nano technology, Prestige rejects up to 97% of infrared light and blocks up to 60% of solar heat coming through your windows — all while letting natural light pour in and preserving your view. What sets Prestige apart is precision. Each of its hundreds of layers is engineered to control light waves as they pass through — and unlike conventional films, performance actually increases as the sun's angle rises. The result: greater protection exactly when you need it most. Whether for residential comfort or commercial efficiency, Prestige keeps your space cool, protected, and beautifully lit — without the mirror-like look of traditional reflective films.
Floods your space with natural light while keeping the heat out — delivering stunning aesthetics without compromise
Spectrally selective technology rejects up to 97% of infrared light — cutting energy costs and creating a noticeably more comfortable environment
Blocks the UV rays responsible for fading — extending the life of your furniture, flooring, and interior furnishings
Backed by a comprehensive warranty from 3M — the trusted name in window film for over 55 years
Low interior and exterior reflectivity preserves your view from inside while maintaining a sleek, professional appearance from outside
Non-metallized film ensures zero signal interference with Wi-Fi, mobile devices, and electronics — plus built-in corrosion resistance for lasting performance
Prestige Series film can become carbon negative in as little as 6 months after installation — sustainability that pays for itself
