Interested in window film in Cleveland, Ohio? There are many benefits to window film, including protecting your skin. In your home, sun protection may be the farthest thing from your mind, but any UV light can cause cancer over time. The fact is, glass in most homes does not block harmful UV rays. The risk of harmful UV light is as bad in the home as it is outside. Sunlight through glass can still harm your skin. If you are sitting next to a window all day at the office, you are at risk of absorbing UV rays just as you would by sitting outside. 

Because of this, The Skin Cancer Foundation has recently issued its seal of recommendation to window film, indicating it is an excellent deterrent to excessive sunlight. They state that when you spend time indoors be wary of natural light from outside, as UV rays can penetrate through glass without UV blocking film. Otherwise sunlight can stream through the glass and damage your skin. It is important to be sure you are protected by applying window film in areas of your house with direct sunlight. At Tinter's Depot, we sell UV blocking film among other alternatives.

There are benefits to having UV blocking window film other than protecting your skin. That mid afternoon glare can be eliminated with a proper glare reducing film. In addition, your office temperature will be more ideal as blocking UV rays can prevent that afternoon sun from heating up your space.

But your home isn't the only place where sunlight can stream though; vehicles are another area of exposure. Your vehicle likely already has protection, as most cars today have UV resistant wind shields but the side and backseat windows often do not have this protection. This is why it is important to talk to a tinting expert who can guide you through possible UV protection options. Having proper sun protection isn't just important while walking to your car, it is also important while driving it, especially during long commutes.

Most importantly, Tinter's Depot has you covered for any UV protection you may need. Be sure to check out our full line of safety and security film on our website or check out our sister company Window Film and More for more options.
