Impact Of Covid-19 On The Global Window Films Market
The construction industry has faced difficulties as a result of the COVID-19 epidemic, including logistics and raw material shortages. Attributed to the massive drop in financial markets around the world, it is projected that construction investments have been withdrawn globally. As a result, the demand for window films has decreased.

Analyst Review
Window film has a number of advantages for both residential and commercial buildings. Climate and energy control are two of the most common applications for window film. Solar heat gain through windows is considerably reduced by window film, allowing a space to maintain its interior temperature and removing hot spots. As a result of the energy savings, equipment wear and maintenance are minimized. Furthermore, by blocking harmful ultraviolet rays, window film also helps to prevent fading. The reduction in UV radiation flooding through the house or office windows benefits valuable objects such as carpets, furniture, and artwork.
