How we compare to 3M Security Window Film:

As a matter of aesthetic comparison 3M has an extremely limited portfolio of thinner security films.

  • They do not offer a silver or neutral 20, 35,40 or 50% VLT
  • They offer only a thinner 5 ML dual reflective 25% VLT
  • They repackage another companies  8 Ml and 14 ml film 
  • There is no objective independent testing for win, blast, impact or intrusion that our solutions are not equal or superior.

There is no demonstrable advantage for thinner film as 3M offers and their tear resistance does not present superior capability during GSA or DOD blast or ballistic testing.

Adhesive clarity and haze are known issues with the 3M ultra films.

Bottom Line:

LLumar Protective Film
