A Guide to Frosted Glass Film: Applications and Benefits

Frosted glass film or frosted window film is a product that enhances glass to achieve a similar look and function to traditional frosted glass. The film is available in many colours, styles and uses that make it more available and versatile when compared to outright frosted glass.

Frosted glass film is cut to size and applied on top of existing glass or window panels, unlike frosted glass which requires removing and replacing a glass panel.

So, how could you include frosted glass or frosted window film at your Perth home or workplace?

The most widely used application is on the bathroom window and glass shower door. A privacy window film is effective at transmitting light, whilst obscuring vision from the outside. Most new homes have the frosted window and door as a standard inclusion, but if it’s missing at your home, a frosted glass film provides the same effect.

The beauty of frosted glass film is it can be customised to shape out brand logos, eye-catching patterns, or personalised messages. For more custom graphic film ideas, see this recent blog titled ‘4 Unique Glass Film Solutions’.

Glass partitions within the office are great at creating an open work area, but sometimes privacy is needed, especially around the boardroom. Plus, the partitions will be more visible, and any dirty marks will be less noticeable.

As aforementioned, frosted glass film still transmits almost as much light as a regular window, over 80% in most cases. This can be done whilst slashing the UV radiation and nullifying the suns glare.

Most of the applications above are used to improve privacy. Frosted glass films do an excellent job of this.

When compared to traditional frosted glass, the frosted glass film is substantially cheaper, and appears almost identical. A film is applied over existing glass and new glass panels don’t need to be installed.

Maintaining a frosted window film is simple too – see a previous article on ‘Cleaning & Maintaining Your Home Window Film’.
