If you want to:
- Control heat and glare problems during sun hours

What is a Mylar Shade?
A Mylar shade is a window shade used for commercial, residential, industrial, and control tower use. It is made up of three transparent layers of dyed polyester material. This material can come in different thickness measures including 3 mil, 4.5 mil, 5 mil, and 7 mil. Laminated between each two glare reducing sheets of dyed polyester is a thin heat-reflective aluminum coating.
By installing Mylar Shades on a window, you are:
- Rejecting up to 99% of ultraviolet rays
- Reducing up to 74% of heat
- Reducing up to 90% of glare
That’s why it is common in the shade industry that Mylar Film Shades are the #1 energy saving shades.
