Contra Vision offers two categories of privacy window film to hide the view into buildings and rooms, in both commercial and residential settings.
One-Way Privacy
An exclusive range of one-way Privacy films, that stop people seeing in, but allow you to see out!
Our White One-Way Privacy films offer many other benefits including preventing bird strikes, reducing external reflections and glare, solar control including a reduction of solar heat gain and UV radiation inside buildings. Our MicroPerforated Translucent product also offers a solution which gives some privacy at night although blinds and curtains are still needed to guarantee privacy.
We also offer a mirror privacy window film which has a dark grey tint appearance from inside the window. The dual-reflective technology maintains see-through vision from inside at night, unlike most mirror films.
Frosted Privacy
An exclusive range of frosted window films which vary in terms of light transmission and the amount of privacy they provide, with the privacy level increasing as the Visual Light Transmission (VLT) decreases. Our Heavy Frost product offers complete privacy and 30% VLT. The Light Frost product still offers good privacy but with a VLT of 90%
All the frosted window films have an elegant textured (embossed) surface and are a cost-effective alternative to etched or sandblasted glass, providing similar benefits without the need for replacing existing window. The range also includes our Reeded Glass Film which gives the appearance of fluted glass.
Vision Control
Control the amount of privacy, in one direction or both directions, and the amount of visual light transmission for your living space.
Easy to apply
Our One-way vision micro-perforated window film are very easy to apply to windows because air bubbles do not get trapped underneath.
Excellent durability
Our range of privacy window films offer an on-window lifetime between 3-10 years!

Other Privacy Window Film FAQs
By applying Contra Vision micro-perforated window film to your window, you will still be able to see out, and the white face film obscures vision into the building. For those standing outside, the windows would appear white, which is because the eye is drawn to the white material which reflects light. From inside, the tiny perforations in the material allow you to see out and let daylight into the room.
You can apply Contra Vision micro-perforated window film (or Contra Vision Mirror Dual Reflective) to your windows to provide privacy. These products still allow light into your home and maintain a clear view-out for occupants inside.
Whilst drapes and blinds are the most obvious answer, if you’re looking for something that will maintain the view out then you should use Contra Vision micro-perforated window film or one of our specialist privacy films. Our micro-perforated window films appear white for those viewing the window from outside and occupants on the inside will have a clear view out. This is due to the reverse being black and the eye is drawn to the outside.
You can make your windows private without curtains by applying Contra Vision Privacy Window Films to your windows. We have one way vision films, mirrored, geometric and frosted films available depending on your privacy requirements. All of which can be applied by yourself or by a qualified installer.
We have privacy window films available that can be applied to the inside or outside of windows.
Our white on black micro-perforated film has adhesive on the black layer allowing for external use and our black on white micro-perforated film has adhesive on the white layer allowing for internal use. Whichever micro-perforated film you choose the window will appear white.

The History of Contra Vision Privacy Window Films
Our invention in 1984 started a new type of advertising which spread across the world, making the Contra Vision® brand a byword for one-way vision window graphics.
After seeing massive demand, we extended our range to cover the Privacy Window Film market. You will find excellent one-way vision privacy products including our core perforated range with the smallest ever holes, for the clearest see-through experience from inside buildings. In addition we offer novel frosted and decorative films for two-way privacy as well as privacy glass film.
Privacy Window Film For Security
Privacy is not just about aesthetics; it’s also about security. Contra Vision Privacy Window Film offers a robust solution for enhancing the security of your property. By obscuring the view into your premises, our films can help deter potential intruders. The films appear white from the outside, making it difficult for anyone to see inside your home. While our films significantly enhance your security during the day, we recommend the use of blinds or curtains for total privacy at night.
