Early this year The Skin Cancer Foundation granted the Seal of Recommendation for all of Johnson Window film products that block 99% or more of harmful UVA and UVB radiation.
Johnson Window Film Dealers can use this powerful information to
raise consumer awareness about their UV safe products. Window film is an
effective weapon against harmful UV ray damage that causes over 2
million people annually to be diagnosed with skin cancer in the United
States alone. Consumers will enjoy the benefits and peace of mind
that this type of protection brings. Protect yourself in your home, car and office. Let's help end skin
cancer together!
The Skin Cancer Foundation’s Seal of Recommendation is granted to sun
protection products that have been reviewed by and meet the specific
criteria of an independent Photobiology Committee. The Seal is a symbol of safe and effective sun protection that is recognized by consumers worldwide. One
of the first programs offered by the Foundation, it quickly gained
acceptance from consumers for setting the standard for effective sun
protection.

When you are inside your home or car, does the thought of protecting
yourself and your family from UV rays cross your mind? Chances are, it
could be the furthest thing from your mind. Sure, windows do provide
some protection, shielding against UVB rays, but UVA rays can easily
penetrate glass with at least 50 percent of UVA rays passing through
windows according to the Skin Cancer Foundation.
This percentage is increased during the winter due to the angle
daylight hits windows and is further intensified when light bounces off
snow.
Inadequate sun protection for kids and adults is the cause of 85
percent of melanomas and 90 percent of non-melanoma skin cancers, the
Skin Care Foundation reports. Furthermore, UV rays can also lead to
health problems and visible signs of aging, so it’s important to guard
your family’s skin anytime they could be exposed to sunlight. In
addition to making a habit of putting on sunscreen daily and wearing
sunglasses and other protective clothing, there’s another unique
solution to consider. The nonprofit group the International Window Film Association (IWFA) recommends
using window film as a way to help keep UVA and UVB rays from passing
through windows. Window film offers the following benefits:
It blocks up to 99 percent of UVA rays providing sun protection for kids and adults in the home and car.
It helps create a more even temperature in the home by reducing hot spots.
Protection for your upholstery and other belongings against sun damage.
Reduce glare while between 30 and 80 percent of visible light is
still able to enter the home or car (depending on the type of film you
choose).
Lower energy costs through heat reduction during hot weather while interior heat back is reflected indoors during cold weather.
You have the option of using safety film, which holds glass together
if the window is shattered. This reduces the chance of break-ins,
theft, property damage, and injuries from broken glass.

Protection from UV rays is just as important outdoors. Guard yourself
and your children with sunglasses, sunscreen, hats, and protective
clothing whenever you head outdoors. Check out our range sunglasses for
children of all ages at Real Kids Shades.
While other films employ very dark tinting to achieve certain levels of heat rejection, LLumar's AIR 80 provides high heat rejection that is light enough to meet Florida tinting laws.
The incredibly advanced AIR 80 film uses nano-ceramic technology to acheive its extraordinary level of prtoection. This protection has been specially designed with your car's electronic accessories in mind: Air 80 does not interfere with cell phones, radios, radar detectors, or global postioning systems!
Long hours on the road put you at a higher risk for increased UVA exposure, a known contributor to skin cancer. Until now, window films that could help reduce UVA exposure were not allowed on FDOT vehicles. LLumar's AIR 80 meets FDOT requirements to keep you rolling on the road while prtoectng you from the harmful affects of increased UVA exposure.
UV rays are a serious concern for daily drivers. Window films block over 99% of the sun's harmful ultra-violet radiation while also blocking heat, reducing glare, and adding comfort and style to your truck or car.
