High-performance window film · Made in Japan

Clear glass.
Zero UV.
Almost no infrared.

ahead film keeps daylight in and heat and UV out: up to 89 % visible light transmission, 0.0 % UV transmission across the entire range, and infrared transmittance as low as 0.1 %, with no milky haze.

Manufacturer data per JIS A 5759:2016. Figures shown for TSM-90C unless stated.

Why ahead

Performance you can measure, clarity you can see.

Most solar films trade daylight for heat rejection. ahead film is engineered in Japan to filter the invisible parts of sunlight, UV and infrared, while leaving the view untouched.

Spectrally selective

0.0 % UV transmission across all eight films and infrared transmission between 0.1 % and 3.7 %, while the clear series keeps 82–89 % of visible light.

Low-haze clarity

Engineered to avoid the milky white cast that many high-performance films show under strong, low-angle sun. The glass stays glass.

Data your clients trust

Independently measured by a public research institute in Tokyo and documented with an Environmental Product Declaration (EN 15804).

Applications

One film family, three markets.

Architecture

Retrofit for offices, hotels, residences and public buildings: cooler rooms without darker windows.

  • Reduced solar heat gain and cooling load
  • Interior-mounted, no façade works
  • EPD for BREEAM, LEED and EPBD renovation projects

Automotive

Glass roofs and rear glazing on EVs and premium vehicles, where heat and UV hit hardest.

  • Panoramic and glass roofs
  • Rear and rear side windows
  • Clear films preserve the factory look

Retail & showrooms

Protect merchandise, interiors and artwork from UV fading while keeping shop windows crystal clear.

  • 0.0 % UV for fading protection
  • Full daylight for displays
  • Car showrooms, luxury retail, galleries
