Fifth Annual Recognition Shines a Light on Window Film and its Many Benefits

WASHINGTON, April 4, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — The International Window Film Association (IWFA), a nonprofit trade association representing leading manufacturers, distributors and dealers, is proud to recognize April 30, 2018, as the fifth annual National Window Film Day (NWFD). In alignment with proclamations issued by governors and mayors across the United States, NWFD is a day dedicated to furthering public education of the many benefits of professionally installed window film including: energy efficiency, indoor temperature comfort, blocking of 99 percent of the sun’s UVA rays, the reduction of glare and the fading of furnishings, and protection from possible harmful exposure to skin and eyes.

“National Window Film Day is a valuable opportunity for families, homeowners, drivers, or any other citizen, to learn about the benefits of this affordable technology,” said John Parker, President of the IWFA. “We’re proud to consistently support National Window Film Day and we encourage our members and industry as a whole to participate, as well.”

NWFD highlights the many benefits of window film and emphasizes how professionally installed window film is a good choice for the environment over replacing older windows entirely. A professional installation of window film helps consumers save on heating and cooling costs and may also be eligible for green energy rebates.

“From increased energy efficiency to protection from 99 percent of UV rays, professionally installed window film offers home and business owners an affordable improvement to help save money and the environment,” said Darrell Smith, Executive Director, IWFA. “We are very happy to see the growing support of National Window Film Day and the window film industry from our nation’s officials.”
