Ceramic tint vs. dyed film: what the difference costs you

Dyed film darkens a window; ceramic film manages it. The difference shows up in heat, signals and lifespan.

Ceramic tint vs. dyed film: what the difference costs you

Heat

Dyed film absorbs heat into the glass and re-radiates it inward; ceramic film reflects infrared heat before it enters the room.

Signals

Ceramic particles do not interfere with radio, mobile or 5G; metallised films can.

Life

Ceramic films keep their colour — dyed films fade toward purple over years.

For automotive glass our ceramic single-layer film measures 75% visible light transmission, 99% UV blocked and 75% infrared blocked.
