Not all window films do the same thing and not all films are effective for your windows’ needs. The main reason for window security film, according to FacilitiesNet.com, is to prevent shards of glass from injuring people if a window breaks.

Security film “encapsulates the glass” so that broken glass doesn’t go flying into multiple directions in small pieces.

Security film is also thicker than solar film, and, instead of being applied to just the visible portion of the window, like solar film, security film is installed into the window.
