Window Film Textured ? Category Overview 

Unlike textured window glass, textured window films are completely 2D and will sit flat against your window when applied. The main difference is that in vinyl film format, you can easily achieve the benefits of having textured windows in terms of added privacy and style, but without having to change your actual window glass.

How Do Textures Help Achieve Privacy In Window Films? 

Known as privacy film for glass ? textured window films will give you the window privacy you?re in search of. Textured film is customisable so that depending on where the window is, the desired level of privacy can be achieved. For instance, on bathroom windows or in the window glass of an external door. Textured privacy window film harnesses the same idea as textured glass, but within a film format. This allows you to create the appearance of textured glass, without having to actually change the window glass to do so.  As you?re adding a layer with visual effects, this helps add privacy because the window is no longer transparent. But at the same time, natural light can still enter the room, offering you the best of both worlds.  Plus in instances where it?s not possible to change the windows, or add blinds or curtains ? textured window film can give you the level of privacy you need in a way that?s much easier and cheaper to achieve.   

Textured Window Films ? Usage Ideas 

A textured glass window can be handy in so many scenarios. This is especially the case where privacy is needed, or you simply want to revive the look of plain window glass.  When you click on any of our product listings, you?ll see information on the usage suitability of that particular window film. But in general, here are some of the usage ideas for textured window films to inspire you.   

Entrance Doors

Don?t like that people can see into your front door of your home or business?  Textured window film can cover up any aspect of glass, and any amount of glass in an instant. The clever aspect of window films with a textured look is that they will appear like actual textured glass has been used, especially from a distance.   

Internal Glass

Internal glass such as shower glass or office doors require privacy. Stylistically, textured window film can create anything from a mild blur to complete obscurity. This is achieved without reducing the ability for natural light to flow into the room. In many cases, the likes of blinds or curtains aren?t suitable for internal glass anyway. Therefore, textured window film gives you the perfect solution. All while being cost-effective, along with being easy to apply and remove.   

Any Other Residential Or Commercial Space

In truth, there are endless usage scenarios for textured window film! Really, all that?s required is a need for some kind of privacy behind the window. Or simply a desire to jazz up any existing window glass within a building. If you?re shopping for a solution that can meet this need for you, then our vinyl window films with texture should be a top consideration.   

How To Choose A Textured Window Film

If this is your first time purchasing textured privacy window film? The good news is that there isn?t the hassle of purchasing new windows or even curtains or blinds to contend with! That said, there are a few aspects you?ll need to consider. This is to ensure you choose the most suitable textured vinyl film for your windows.   

Interior Or Exterior

Window films of all types (including textured) can be suited for internal or exterior use. This will be clearly labelled on the product listing to guide you. So make sure you choose the correct option, depending on whether the film will be placed inside or outside.   

Level Of Window Privacy (Low To High)

People often search for ?window obscure textured film? and come across textured window films as a result. It?s fair to say that all textured window films will offer a degree of privacy. Although on our main product listings, you can select from low, medium or high privacy which will vary depending on the texture you select.   

Texture Style

We?ve given you the ability to choose the exact texture that suits the environment along with your personal preferences.  So perhaps you?d prefer a texture which looks like an internal glass wall with blocks, or maybe you just want some blurriness on the window to stop people looking in ? there?s a texture to suit all requirements!   

Window Colour

Many people are in search of ?coloured window films texture?, which simply means textured window films that also have a coloured tint. We stock a selection of textured window films which also have a striking colour applied. This provides yet more options to personalise the look of your home or commercial space with one simple application.  Look out for our SX-1276 Reeded Glass Lilac or SX-1264 Reeded Glass Olive Green if you?re in search of both colour and texture for your vinyl window films.   

UV Transmission Level

All window films offer a degree of UV transmission protection. Check the product listing for the specific percentage of protection that particular textured window film can provide.   

Window Film Size 

Textured window films are available in a range of different sizes. Select a film size which will allow for a perfect fit once it is cut to size during the application process.   

Benefits Of Textured Window Film

New to all things textured window films? With the ability to mimic glass properties such as etched, frosted, bubbles and blurriness, textured window films can help you reclaim the privacy of your home or commercial building.  Let?s look at some of the advantages which are specific to textured window films to learn more.   

Textures Boast Instant Window Privacy

Windows allow us to gain more natural light in a room, whether that room happens to face outside, or be based internally within a building. That said, while we welcome natural light entering a room, prying eyes are less welcome. Put up a blind or curtain and you?ll gain privacy, but you?ll also lose natural light. Plus for internal office spaces or even shower glass ? neither of these options are suitable. But what is suitable in practically every scenario is to apply a textured window film to the surface of the glass instead. With three different levels of privacy to choose from, prying eyes will instantly be blocked from looking through the glass once the vinyl film is applied.   

Textures Look More Like Real Window Glass

Similar to windows, window films come in many styles and colours.  Textured window film can give more of a real glass effect. That?s because our films consider the properties that are applied to sheets of window glass to give privacy, only within a vinyl film format.  So if patterns, colours or other styles aren?t your thing, textured window films offer yet more options for you to discover.   

Keep Your Original Window Glass

Window films are made from vinyl film, and they adhere straight onto your existing window glass.  Therefore, if you?ve always liked the look of textured window glass, or simply want more privacy, you don?t have to undertake costly window replacements with window film.  Later down the line if you change your mind, or even fancy a different window texture ? the vinyl film can easily be removed and switched out. But with window glass, any change you make is more permanent giving you less options overall.  So it?s fair to say that a textured window film will give you endless flexibility.   

Multiple Sizes To Choose From

We supply our textured window films in a variety of sizes, ensuring your chosen design can be cut perfectly to size once it arrives with you.  You may wish to cover the entirety of your window or only a specific section, depending on the window size and amount of privacy you require. The ability to select different vinyl film sizes makes this a breeze.
