I saw it used on Grand Designs, cost a bloody fortune & the folk who had the house used tons of it!

I think they paid £3k a door - and had about 8000 doors in their house!!!

There are (as far as I know) two systems on the market for commercial interiors:

Privalite from SGG:

which is about £1,400 per sq m supply only, then you've got the electrics and the fit to worry about. This is the original system and has the liquid crystal film applied at the factory, between the two sheets of laminated glass.

and Komfort have just started doing a system:

But at the moment is applied like the manifestation you see on glass walls (rather like limo film, but frosted). The one sample wall that I have seen had some really minor imperfections in it at the time, finger marks, bubbles and trapped dust. It's marginally cheaper too!

Guess what I build, all day, every day for people!
