Throughout the long history (nearly 60 years) of the window film industry thicker security glazing window film coatings provided a significant level of protection against forced entry, smash and grab crimes and wind blown flying debris.
The Federal government has used these films to protect GSA and Military personnel and property around the USA as well as overseas.
Blast protection (mitigation) particularly after Oklahoma City focused on a specified level of protection and Federal officials determined a baseline level of performance expectations that many manufacturers have met (documented testing available.)
Advanced Film Solutions is unique by offering multiple brand alternatives but all of our selections meet or exceed the DoD and GSA testing requirements.
Avery- Dennison Hanita Films manufactured in Israel.
There are certainly aesthetic differences as one might expect between these brand offerings.
Metallic privacy and silver films, clear or lightly tinted iterations as well as multiple light transmissions and levels of reflective or non-reflective.
In all cases Advanced Film Solutions offers an optional but highly recommended Dow 995 attachment system that anchors the film, frames and glass into one complete system.
We should note that our single competition 3M Safety and Security Film does NOT offer any documented safety or security advantage over any of the scores of choices we install on a daily basis.
There is absolutely no advantage for 3M or performance benefit measurable by any independent testing; nor can 3M provide any documented advantage.
In fact the 3M portfolio is extremely limited in the selections offered in terms of appearance, light transmissions and reflectivity.
Why glazing security films:
The bottom line is the efficacy value of these coatings.
Thicker 8 ML coatings hold glass in place against force and physical attack.
They are recommended for blast protection and store burglary protection. These films are employed by school districts to prevent intrusion by armed perpetrators.
These films have been tested and have met wind storm small and medium large missile impact testing and cycling
Most home and business owners require solar versions of these films to lower cooling costs or provide privacy.
The dual benefit of a solar security combination film improves the ROI immeasurably.
Getting the best solar control window film for your Tampa area home means doing your homework.
Advanced Film Solutions is Tampa, Orlando and Sarasota’s leading window film installation company.
We install and promote the Eastman Chemical portfolio because of the depth of product line, adhesive clarity and technology superiority compared to any other window film manufacturer.
Eastman is the world leader in sales and experience.
Leading brands like LLumar, Vista, Huper Optik and SunTek provide the best heat filtering choices.
When temperatures soar above 90 degrees and the humidity is above 100% ( a typical day here in Tampa) there is no cooling down when the sun sets.
Keeping your home cooler is simple with our array of coatings.

Lifetime warranty, unmatched clarity and the very best installations from our team that has earned eight straight Super Service Awards from Angie’s List
Eastman Chemicals has a broad array of light transmissions and films of varied aesthetics.
Reflective films, dual reflective films and non reflective coatings in a wide range.
All of the residential and commercial choices have been NFRC certified for veracity in anticipated performance.
The 3M portfolio is extremely limited in terms of light transmissions and appearance.
For example our LLumar dual reflectives which out-perform the 3M Night Vision series is available in darker and lighter versions. The Vista films are also dual reflective and are also available in more choices of light filtering.
In terms of security film there is simply no comparison.
Our LLumar and Vista films are available in stronger 8 ML versions in dozens of light transmissions compared to 3M’s thinner limited security films.
Our Eastman Huper Optik series has several critical advantages over the 3M Prestige series.
Huper Optik has no dyes in the composition of the film. This ensures durability and color stability. The 3M Prestige films employ dyes and these light filtering chemicals can be scratched off of the film quite easily.
The adhesive superiority of Huper Optik’s clarity easily out performs the 3M Prestige film.
Our Huper Optik films are available in darker versions (20%-30%) where glare rejection and maximum heat rejection is crucial. Our Huper Drei is the best heat rejecting 35% film in the industry and easily out-performs the 3M Prestige 40.
Our Eastman Chemical portfolio of LLumar SelectPro, Vista, Huper Optik, SunTek, and FormulaOne is the foundation for our success throughout Tampa Bay, Sarasota and the Greater Orlando area.
Our experienced technicians ensure 100% customer satisfaction and we meet and exceed all requirements.

Window film is an after-market solution that in many ways improves the performance of your existing windows and sliders.
