Originally developed for the US space and military program, and now being adapted for commercial use, V-KOOL 70 is a transparent, infra-red reflective polyester film which can be bonded to glass surfaces. The polyester is coated on one side with multi-layers of microscopic metal particles, and a pressure sensitive adhesive on the underside.
V-KOOL 70 retains its transparency in spite of the metal and adhesive coatings and does not interfere with visibility when applied to the windows. The coating blocks off infrared heat and ultra-violet radiation without significantly reducing the visible transmittance. The glass is made shatter-resistant by the film, forming a permanent bond.
V-KOOL 70 provides a superior mix of high visible light transmission at 70% as well as high infra-red and ultra-violet rejection at 94% and 99% respectively.

Leading technological expertise has allowed the scientists who created V-KOOL to configure visible light transmission and infra-red rejection attributes of the coating to suit different market needs. An impressive example is seen in V-KOOL 40. While V-KOOL 70 and X75 were engineered for applications where visible light transmission requirement is high, V-KOOL 40 is darker in appearance, as compared to V-KOOL 70 and X75.
For applications requiring lesser visibility and maximum solar control, V-KOOL 40 fits the bill by offering a staggering 98.3% rejection of infra-red radiation from the sun. Again, spectral-selectivity means that while V-KOOL 40 almost completely eliminates infra-red radiation from penetrating your windows, it still allows 40% of visible light to pass through.

Leading our range of V-KOOL® Stature's spectrally selective coatings in visible light transmittance is X75 (formerly known as V-KOOL 75). While looking deceptively clear, X75 is a full-fledge, spectrally selective coating with good solar heat rejection properties. The performance behind X75 lies in its complex multi-layer thin coatings of metallic substances, such as silver. Although the total heat rejection is not as high as V-KOOL 70, the key advantage of X75 is its high light transmission which may be required for certain applications.
Typical applications for X75 range from automobile, retail shopfronts, restaurants, and art galleries to residential glass with very high light transmission requirements.

Another range of metalised films conceived and developed stemming from customer feedback is the K-Series. The K-Series window films are 100% metalised films. They are cost-effective, and heat reflective but engineered to have a muted non-reflective appearace. Using proprietary technology, this series of films provides you a range of different levels of glare and heat control, characterised by its low levels of visible reflectivity.
The K-Series is suited for vehicle applications to achieve privacy without the reflectivity.
