Windshield coatings can help prevent a host of skin or eye related issues. Skin cancer, photo-aging, cataract issues and more are often at higher risk with prolonged exposure due to driving. Our film coating will also reduce IR (Infra-Red) heat by more than 91%. And its practically clear and colorless.
Skin Cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States today. Two million people are diagnosed annually with some form of skin cancer. Approximately 1 out of every 5 Americans will develop some form of skin cancer. It’s a scary statistic that has been getting progressively worse over the years. Make sure to take a look at the great reduction of UV radiation and IR heat on the solar spectrum images below.
One of the great contributors to these cancers is UV radiation. There are 3 types of UV radiation to consider:
- UV-A (Long wavelength, creates significant skin damage with prolonged exposure)
- UV-B ( Short, powerful wavelength, generally known for sun burns)
- UV-C (Absorbed by the atmosphere)
Most automotive glass allows approximately 63% of UVA radiation to penetrate through it.
