Blinded by low winter sun?

With the sun lower in the sky in the winter, glare through external glass within a building is felt more keenly than in the summer months and can be a significant problem for staff, especially those using computer monitors.

Glare is the loss of contrast and a 'washing out' of the screen image when ambient light is brighter than the light emitted by the monitor. Lighting conditions in an office are generally optimized for the reading of paper documents meaning high light levels. But a monitor, perceived by the light it emits, is easier to read in low light because there is greater contrast with the light in the room.
Similarly, reflections off the monitor can be annoying and debilitating. They can obscure the screen image so much that users need to twist or move uncomfortably to see what's on the screen, contributing to eye strain and fatigue.

It is important to protect staff from the harmful and debilitating effects of glare and reflection from low winter sunshine. A cost-effective solution that really works is Sun Shield Window Films use of solar control performance window film, which can reduce glare by up to 94%. These films are optically clear, maintaining excellent vision through the glass, but will also block 99% of harmful UV light. They can also reject up to 79% of un-wanted solar gain during the summer months.

Solar control performance window films can also assist with meeting the requirements of the Health & Safety (Display Screen Equipment) Regulations 1992 which implement European Directive No: 90/270/EEC.
