Multi-layer with gradual transition
The S-LEC™ Shaded Film can be combined with an sound-insulating plastic layer, and with heat-insulating micro-particles dispersed evenly in a multi-layer structure. The gradual transition of the tinted section into the transparent part of the windshield allows the blocking of sunlight where its needed most.
Additionally the color shading creates a stunning design in modern (electrical) vehicles. S-LEC™ Shaded Film is already widely used in the automotive market and is available in the following colours:
- Blue

Advantages
Customized design
Brands in automotive domain can add unique design in car glazing using S-LEC™ Shaded Film, offering a natural graduation from tinted to transparent glass.
Safety
Broken glass shatters into pieces, flying in all directions. The same is true for tempered glass. When accidents occur, drivers lose visibility with a smashed windshield. S-LEC™ Shaded film with high impenetrability, will protect the glass from shattering, saving visibility and preventing shattering to minimize the likelihood of occupant injury.
Noise reduction
Shaded S-LEC™ Sound Acoustic Film brings peace and calmness to the interior of the car by significantly reducing noises coming through the glass from engine, tires, wind and rain
