Distraction Bands...Can you see them?

Well hopefully you can! Distraction bands are a great way to enjoy an open office plan without having to worry about your Co-Workers walking into the glass. I know it sounds silly, but it really isn’t. While the occasional walking into glass and spilling your drink is funny, once in a while it can result in a serious injury which is not. People have experienced broken noses, and knocked out teeth from something as simple as walking into glass.

Adding some distraction bands is a simple way to solve the problem. They can be a small band of frosted film, or something with a little more depth like the Distraction Bands featured below. Regardless, it’s an addition to your office that should not be avoided.

Distraction Bands are an easy addition with the use of Window Film! Ensure you are working with a qualified reputable dealer. While they look like a simple application, they can be anything but. The bands need to line up straight, and with the narrowness of the design, it takes a skilled eye to install correctly.

Shelley and Heath, Solar Vision owners spent last weekend at a AIA Conference at Keystone.  They were able to talk to architects about Solar Vision's products and services.  It was a great weekend for Solar Vision, Inc. and 3M.  They were able to help the architects learn more about the many advantages of window film at the AIA Conference. Solar Vision is proud and excited to be a part of the massive development happening in Colorado right now.  There are many opportunities for growth in energy saving (green) window film and in decorative and artistic applications of film.

DICHROIC 3M Glass Finishes

web-hero-dichroic.jpg

Dichroic 3M glass finishes is a film that can be applied to glass or some plastics that show an array of color.  The color changes with the light that it is exposed to, the color of the surface it is applied to, and the angle it is viewed from.  This amazing film creates unique effects in whatever environment it is used in. (http://solutions.3m.com/wps/portal/3M/en_US/architectural-markets/home/glass-finishes/dichroic/) Dichroic 3M glass finishes are mostly used in commercial buildings, but can also be used in a home for a unique effect.  The look can be obtained by purchasing dichroic glass, but using film is a much more cost effective solution.  The application of it is also much  less expensive than installing the glass.

Dichroic film  'plays' with light, reflecting and bouncing it to reveal a natural color spectrum.

Dichroic film is:

  • a visible color shift from both sides of the film-covered glass.
  • applicable for glass and many plastics.
  • available in warm and cool colors.
  • made of premium grade multi-layer polyester.
  • non-metallic, non-conductive and non-corrosive.

Colors:

  • The Chill shift in cool tones-blue, magenta, yellow and  gold/blue color regions
  • The Blaze are in warm tones
