Ceramic Film

Ceramic film is a non-metallic window film that uses microscopic ceramic particles to reject infrared heat and UV without blocking phone, GPS or radio signals.

Ceramic films sandwich a ceramic-particle layer between PET substrates and adhesive. Because the ceramic particles are dielectric (non-conductive), the film blocks heat and UV without interfering with mobile, GPS, ERP or radar signals — a critical advantage for Singapore drivers who depend on Apple CarPlay, Google Maps and ERP gantries.

Modern nano-ceramic films like Infratint Platinum99 can reject 90–99% of infrared heat at a relatively low Visible Light Reflectance, meaning the film stays optically clear rather than mirrored. Quality is graded by Total Solar Energy Rejected: the higher the rejection at a given Visible Light Transmission (VLT), the better the film is performing.

In Singapore's tropical climate, ceramic film is the default recommendation for vehicles parked outdoors during the day, because the interior temperature reduction (often 8–14 °C lower than untinted glass) directly reduces air-conditioning load and protects upholstery from UV fade.
