Protection without compromise

With Saflex UV PVB interlayers, you can design to let sunshine in without worrying about UV radiation prematurely fading drapes, curtains, carpet, furniture, hardwood floors, wallpaper, photographs, framed documents, artwork, and anything else your clients like to show off indoors . . . including their skin**. 

 

** Fading and deterioration can occur with exposure to radiation in the ultraviolet (UV) and visible light range

Superior UV Screening Performance 

Conventional Saflex PVB interlayers have a 99% UV screening capability to 380 nm. Saflex UV, however, screens 99% up to 400 nm*. Useful for many applications, this level of UV protection is ideal for museums, storefronts, libraries, and switchable/smart glazing with sensitive layers such as liquid crystals.

 

*  Calculated in accordance with ISO 13837 method A.
