Why Tint Factory Uses Solar Gard Window Film
Estimated read time: 5 minutes
We are frequently asked why we exclusively carry Solar Gard films rather than offering a range of different brands at varying price points. The answer comes down to what over 33 years of installation experience in the demanding Los Angeles climate teaches you about where true quality separates from clever marketing. When you are dealing with intense UV exposure and extreme solar heat gain, you need a product engineered to perform consistently over decades, not just look good on day one.
What Solar Gard Is
Solar Gard is a brand of Saint-Gobain — one of the world's largest building materials companies, founded in 1665. Saint-Gobain's Performance Plastics division manufactures Solar Gard films for commercial, residential, and automotive applications. Solar Gard films are NFRC-certified, meaning their performance claims are independently tested and verified.
What Solar Gard Preferred Shop Means
Tint Factory is a Solar Gard Preferred Shop — the highest tier in Solar Gard's dealer network. To maintain Preferred status, a shop must maintain a demonstrated installation quality standard that Solar Gard verifies independently, stock and have access to Solar Gard's full commercial and residential film line, and provide proper warranty documentation.
What This Means for Your Installation
When Tint Factory installs Solar Gard film on your property or vehicle, the warranty is backed by Saint-Gobain — not just by the local installer. To schedule a consultation for commercial window tinting or residential window tinting in Los Angeles, contact us at (310) 815-1013.
