Why Window Film is the Perfect Fit for New York Stores

Retail locations in The Big Apple will benefit from window film because it addresses their unique challenges.

Decorative Window Film for Branding 

It is all too important to stand out from other retail locations in NYC because there are a ton of places to shop (many times side by side).  When you choose decorative window film application you create a fun, colorful, and unique display that will help you capture walk-ins.  Also, decorative window film is totally customizable, meaning you can use it to advertise your website, hours of operation, and niche merchandise information in an eye-catching way.

UV Blocking Window Film for Protecting Merchandise

A massive threat to your store’s profitability is lost merchandise.  Surprisingly, a lot of merch is lost through fading, melting, and deteriorating under the rays of the sun through your retail windows. For this reason,  UV blocking window film is the perfect way to help stores avoid losses from merchandise ruined by the sun. These films stop the detrimental rays right at your window that fade, melt, and generally degrade products.

Security Window Film to Prevent Theft

Break-Ins are a problem for any retail location–small ones in particular.  New York City is a high-crime area in which smash and grabs on storefront windows happen all the time.   Any type of window film gives you an added layer of security from break-ins because the glass will stay adhered to the film immediately after being hit.  However,  If you are looking for even stronger protection, specialty security films, security window frames, and C-Bond adhesive are what you need.
