10 years of Contra Vision and Lavastar

2025 sees the 10 year anniversary of London-based signage and visual solutions company Lavastar. We’re proud to have been their number one choice in perforated window film from the beginning.

“Contra Vision was one of the very first product names we came across, and over the past 10 years, it has remained our go-to choice.

Time and again, we’ve chosen quality over compromise. With Contra Vision, we have complete peace of mind, knowing we’re working with products that deliver consistently and won’t let us—or our customers—down.”

– Ed Kelsing, Director

Over the past decade, Lavastar’s projects have grown, from 2 square meters to thousands. With this growth, having a product that they’re familiar with, is easy to apply and high performing in all weather conditions has been vital.

Contra Vison’s consistency has been a huge benefit to Lavastar. Choosing Contra Vision products for their projects fills both the account managers and installers with confidence in providing a high quality result for their customers.

One significant project was rebranding an office building in Clapham Park.

They needed a product that would allow them to fully brand the main elevations of the Clapham Park office building without blocking out too much light and allowing office workers to still see out, and opted for Contra Vision® Performance HD White on Black in 40% transparency.

This unique product has 1mm diameter holes which are 60% smaller in diameter than standard one-way vision products. This makes it the only film in the world that offers High Definition graphics with the smoothest see-through available.
