Frosted window film

Frosted window film gives glass the look of etched or sandblasted glass for a fraction of the cost and effort. It adds privacy to offices, boardrooms, clinics and bathrooms while still letting light through. We quote frosted film for full panes, privacy bands and designs with logos or cut-out patterns.

Frosted film options

  • Full frosting – the whole pane covered for complete privacy.
  • Privacy bands – a strip at seated or standing eye height, leaving the top and bottom clear for light.
  • Logo cut-outs – your logo cut out of a frosted band so it shows as clear glass, or your logo cut in frosted film on clear glass.
  • Patterns and stripes – lines, gradients or shapes that give partial privacy.
  • Printed frosted film – colour accents added to the frosted effect.
  • Safety manifestations – frosted bands or dots on glass doors and partitions so people notice the glass.

Where frosted film is used

Frosted film is common on glass boardroom and office partitions, reception front doors, ground-floor offices facing a street or parking area, medical and therapy rooms, bathroom windows and shopfront windows that hide a storeroom. In open-plan offices it divides space without blocking light. It pairs well with reception signage and broader office branding.

Planning your frosted film

  • Decide how much privacy you need. Seated meetings need a band lower down than standing areas.
  • Measure each pane – width and height of the visible glass inside the frame.
  • Think about light. Full frosting softens light; bands keep more brightness.
  • Supply a vector logo for cut-out designs. See vector artwork for signage.

Pricing, turnaround and care

Frosted film is quoted on the total glass area, design complexity and installation. Installation is quoted separately, and a site visit can be arranged for larger offices. Timelines are confirmed on the quote.

To clean frosted film, use a soft cloth and mild soapy water. Avoid abrasive pads and scraping blades on the film itself. Request a quote with photos and measurements of the glass.

Frequently asked questions

Is frosted film permanent?
It is long-lasting but can be removed, which makes it popular in rented offices.
Can you put our logo in the frosted film?
Yes. Logos can be cut out of the frosting or cut in frosted film. We need a vector logo for this.
Can you see through frosted film at night?
Frosted film blurs the view in both directions, so it gives privacy day and night, though light and shapes can still show through.
