It’s emotionally appealing because it connects us Saflex UV interlayers also provide all the benefits of safety with the outside world. And it’s practical because many glazing, glass shard containment, structural integrity, sound sustainable designs now call for effective daylighting. But natural abatement, security, and storm protection when used in the light also brings damaging UV rays. proper configurations. in without worrying about UV radiation prematurely fading drapes, curtains, carpet, furniture, hardwood floors, wallpaper, photographs, framed documents, artwork, and anything else your clients like to show off indoors . . . including their skin.2 Conventional Saflex PVB interlayers have a 99% UV screening With Saflex® UV PVB interlayers, you can design to let sunshine capability to 380 nm.
