90% of architectural glass should be filmed

As auto glass film is very popular now, shall architectural glass need film? In the Glass Film Standard Seminar of China Window Film Association, Professor Long Wenzhi concluded that 90% of architectural glass should be stuck with film in China.

In China, only 10%~15% of new buildings are qualified to China compulsory energy-conserving standard and over 80% are high-energy consumption buildings. Buildings consume 40% of total energies, the largest amount among all energy-using products, and 46% of energies are lost from doors and windows. So, building energy should conserve from doors and windows.

According to test, filmed glass has 30%-70% lower heat transfer coefficient than ordinary glass. Besides, films are safe, explosion-proof and antiglare. In developed countries, 90% of architectural glass are filmed while less than 10% are filmed in China.
