Solar Window Film Case Studies
Red Bull Racing Office
Reflective Solar Window Film
Style and protection with LLumar solar control window film.
Situation
Red Bull bought Jaguar Racing just prior to the start of the 2005 Formula One season—a logical continuation of Red Bull’s longtime enthusiasm for motor and extreme sports. Following the change of ownership, the team’s offices were refurbished and restyled to reflect Red Bull’s official colors. Accordingly, the bulk of the building’s exterior in Milton Keynes, United Kingdom was painted silver, and the architect wanted to continue the effect across the whole façade.
Solution
The architect asked LLumar manufacturer CPFilms to suggest a silver-effect high performance window film to cover the glazing on the façade. LLumar reflective solar control window film R-20 SR HPR was recommended for the job. Not only would this film give the modern mirror look sought by the architect, it would also significantly reduce solar glare—another important benefit desired by the client.
Result
After the film was professionally installed within the deadline and within budget, Red Bull Racing was able to achieve sophisticated style with the added benefits of heat and glare reduction. Now Red Bull has a 21st century office to match its racing ambitions.
