HDClear1: Transparent to Translucent Custom Printed Decorative Window Film
HDClear 1 is a popular solution for architects and designers looking to provide a soft design to glazed areas. This may be for health and safety and to comply with building codes or legislation or purely for decorative purposes.
The most common use is to help keep people from walking into large glass panels. Since floor-to-ceiling glass is optically clear, peripheral vision fails to pick up the glass surface and pedestrians can walk directly into tempered glass. Head injuries, neck injuries and glass damage are avoided by mounting art to glass similar to what is seen above.
This is referred to as custom printed transparent* to translucent* window film.
What makes HDClear different?
HDClear works with true, optically clear polyester film (PET). We use a unique printing process with CMYK inks for HDClear 1. Applied in layers, our proprietary process allows graphics to be viewed from both sides of the glazing, permitting natural light to flood through. Our optically clear polyester film outlasts all traditional vinyl graphic applications to flat glass areas.
Critical Definitions*
Transparent – Having the property of transmitting rays of light, for persons/objects on the opposite side, to be “distinctly seen”: Rose-colored glass is transparent. Please note, the base of HDClear is clear and to simulate transparency we add fine spots of color, which will reduce optical clarity in the printed areas.
Translucent – Permits light to pass through with enough dispersion, for persons/objects on the opposite side to not be clearly visible: Frosted window glass is translucent.
