Many people believe that spending time indoors means you’re protected from the harmful effects of the sun. But did you know UV rays can still reach you inside your home or office? At TriState Sun Control Window Films, we’re committed to helping property owners across Connecticut, New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania understand the risks—and protect what matters most.
Do UV Rays Penetrate Windows?
While standard glass windows block some UVB rays (the type that causes sunburn), they still allow a significant amount of UVA rays to pass through. These UVA rays are responsible for:- Premature skin aging
- Increased risk of skin cancer
- Fading and deterioration of furniture, flooring, and art
