Window frosting and decorative film

Window frosting is a film applied directly to your existing glass. It gives you privacy, changes how the glass looks, or adds a custom design, and it achieves the look of acid-etched, sandblasted, reeded or textured glass at a fraction of the cost, with no structural work.

When your needs change, the film comes off without damaging the glass underneath. We use it on everything from a single bathroom window to a full commercial fit-out where every partition needs a consistent frosted band.

What we can do with decorative film

Six film types, and hundreds of ways to use them.
Frosted film

The look of sandblasted or acid-etched glass. Diffuses light while blocking the view, in opacities from a light haze to near-opaque white. Most often used on bathroom windows, office partitions and glass doors.

Reeded and patterned film

Recreates reeded, fluted, ribbed and other textured specialty glass on standard glass. On a recent school fit-out, fluted film gave meeting rooms the look of specialty glazing within the fit-out budget.

Decorative and geometric patterns

Bands, geometric designs and textured looks for partitions, windows and doors. Choose from standard designs or have one custom printed.

Custom printed and branded film

Digitally printed logos, graphics, artwork and wayfinding for shopfronts, partitions and reception glass. We work from your brand guidelines, an architect's specification or a brief.

Coloured decorative film

Translucent and opaque film in a wide range of colours. Brand colours in a commercial space, or privacy and filtered light in a home.

Safety manifestation decals

Solid bands on full-height glass so people can see it is there, as required under the National Construction Code for new commercial buildings.

Overlooking compliance for new builds

A Victorian building regulation that frosted film is the standard answer to.

What is overlooking?

Under Victorian building regulations, a habitable room window or raised open space must not give a direct line of sight into a neighbour’s habitable room window or secluded private open space.

Where a new build or extension creates that line of sight, frosted film on the affected windows is the standard, cost-effective way to comply.

We assess the windows, recommend the right film grade and area, and provide documentation confirming the installation for sign-off.

Builders and developers

Overlooking is picked up at planning and approval. Frosted film is specified as the solution before practical completion.

Architects and designers

Where overlooking affects the design, frosted film can go into the glazing specification from the start.

Homeowners extending or building

If your renovation creates an overlooking issue with a neighbour, frosted film resolves it without changing the structure.

Building surveyors

We provide documentation confirming the installation and the film specification for compliance sign-off.

Where window frosting gets used

Decorative film works just as well in homes as it does in commercial spaces.

Commercial

A professional finish without the cost of specialty glass.

Residential

Privacy, light and style in any room.
