Self-adhesive film can often be installed in hours for standard windows. Large projects or laminated glass follow standard glazing schedules. We provide full installation manuals and remote support.
Do you offer OEM / private label?
Yes. Full OEM service including custom branding, packaging, voltage, size and performance parameters. Minimum order quantities apply for special customizations.
What voltage and power do I need?
Standard is 48V or 60V AC (safe low voltage). Power consumption is typically 3-5 W/m². Transformers and controllers can be supplied or specified by us.
What is the warranty and lifespan?
Standard warranty is 2-5 years depending on product type. Expected optical lifespan exceeds 20 years under normal indoor use with proper installation.
