Commercial Privacy Window Film for UK Workspaces.
One Way Vision or 24 Hour Privacy
What is privacy window film?
With over 30 years of experience in the industry, we understand that privacy requirements vary widely from one business to another. From ground-floor shopfronts exposed to public footfall, to internal office partitions or meeting rooms where discretion is key, our films provide an effective, stylish solution. We’re not a one-man band; we’re a full team of qualified installers and project managers who have worked with national companies, local authorities, NHS trusts, and countless SMEs. You can see examples of our recent work in our project showcase.
Privacy window film is generally available in two different forms. One is completely opaque allowing light through but preventing vision through glass night and day. The other is a “one way” or reflective film that given suitable light conditions will allow vision through one side of the glass but appearing mirrored on the other.
Privacy is essential in many business environments – whether you’re protecting sensitive data, safeguarding client confidentiality or simply looking to create a more discreet and professional working space. We specialise in commercial privacy window film installations for offices, retail units, healthcare providers, education facilities and a wide range of commercial buildings across the UK.
Frosted window film also known as Sand Blast, Satin or Etch Effect Film is ideal where total privacy is paramount. Ideal for office partitions, changing rooms and bathrooms it can also be printed on to or have bespoke designs cut out of the film.
“One Way Window Film”, Reflective Window Film” or “Mirror Film” is primarily a solar control film which as a secondary feature will afford a high level of privacy. It is an extremely popular product providing added privacy for external facing windows while allowing daytime vision out.
Once applied, the glass will appear mirrored externally during daylight hours while outward vision from the interior side of the glass will remain unobstructed.
Why Commercial Privacy Film is Essential for Businesses?
While blinds or curtains can block visibility, they often look outdated, collect dust, and limit natural light. In contrast, privacy window film for commercial buildings offers a cleaner, more modern solution. It allows light transmission while obscuring visibility—perfect for customer-facing premises, shared workspaces or internal meeting rooms.
Whether you need full-time privacy, daytime one-way vision, or decorative screening to support your branding, we can supply and install a tailored film that meets your exact goals. Our solutions don’t just add privacy—they also contribute to professional presentation, staff wellbeing, and regulatory compliance (particularly for sectors handling personal data).

Types of Privacy Window Film for Commercial Use
We offer a broad range of business privacy window film options, each designed to address specific challenges faced by UK workplaces. Our team will advise you on the best option for your setting, considering light levels, privacy direction, usage type and more.
Frosted Privacy Window Film
Ideal for offices, meeting rooms, GP surgeries and internal glass partitions, frosted film obscures vision completely while still letting in natural light. It’s one of the most requested options in our range and can be customised with logos or graphics for a professional finish.
One-Way Privacy Film
Designed to allow outward visibility while preventing people from seeing in, one-way privacy film is popular for ground-floor windows, reception areas and front-facing glazing. It uses reflective technology during daylight hours to create a mirrored effect on the outside.
Blackout and Whiteout Films
For rooms that require complete obscurity – such as storage areas, changing rooms, or unused spaces – blackout and whiteout films block visibility entirely from both sides. These are also useful for covering up unsightly views or maintaining security.
Decorative Privacy Films
We also offer commercial decorative window film that doubles as a privacy solution. From patterned frosts to bespoke designs, these options allow businesses to reinforce branding while achieving the required level of discretion.

FAQs: Commercial Privacy Window Film
How much privacy does frosted film provide?
Frosted film provides full visual privacy from both sides while allowing light to pass through. It’s ideal for internal glass, consultation rooms and front-facing glazing.
Does one-way privacy film work at night?
One-way films rely on light balance—so they are effective during daylight hours. If the inside is lit at night, visibility may be possible. We’ll advise if blackout or dual-reflective films are better suited to your needs.
Is the film removable or permanent?
All our commercial privacy films are applied using professional adhesives, but they can be removed without damaging the glass if your needs change.
Can I add branding or designs to the privacy film?
Yes. We offer custom-cut vinyl, etched logos and bespoke graphic prints as part of our commercial service, making it easy to align your privacy solution with your brand.
Do you offer national installation?
We provide supply and installation of privacy commercial window film for businesses across the UK, with a team of in-house installers and project managers.
