Safety & Solar Control Film Installation at 75 King William Street, London
Project Overview
A commercial contractor appointed us to upgrade the glazing at 75 King William Street, London, as part of a wider building fit-out. The existing safety film had reached the end of its lifespan, confirmed through a peel test, and required replacement. To enhance both safety and solar control, we installed Opalux SA-20RS/2000-iSR Silver 20 solar and safety film across 300m² of glass over two floors.
Scope of Work
- Conducting a peel test to assess the condition of the existing safety film.
- Safe removal of the expired safety film.
- Installation of Opalux SA-20RS/200-iSR Silver 20 to provide both safety compliance and solar heat reduction.
- Coordinating the installation alongside the ongoing building fit-out.
- Completing the project within a four-week timeframe.
Challenges & Solutions
- Film Removal Efficiency: Ensuring the safe and effective removal of the old safety film without leaving residue or damaging the glass.
- Dual-Purpose Film Selection: The choice of Opalux SA-20RS/200-iSR Silver 20 meant the client could achieve both safety compliance and solar control in one application.
- Tight Project Timeline: The work was scheduled and completed in line with the overall fit-out program, ensuring minimal disruption.
Outcome
The project was delivered on time and within specification, improving both the safety and energy efficiency of the building's glazing. The newly installed film significantly reduces glare, heat gain, and UV exposure while ensuring compliance with safety regulations. The client now benefits from a modern, high-performance glazing solution that enhances occupant comfort and security.
