Glare Management Without Darkness
50% VLT preserves the open feel of Philadelphia offices and residences while cutting workstation glare and eye strain on sun-heavy elevations.
Premium Series
About Nova 70
Nova 70 sits at the bright end of the Premium Series lineup — 50% visible light transmission with enough solar control to meaningfully reduce glare on east- and south-facing glass without making interiors feel dim or industrial. For Philadelphia Class A office towers, hotel atriums, and University City research facilities where occupant comfort and view quality both matter, Nova 70 threads the needle between performance and livability.
The sputtered metallic construction gives Nova 70 its solar credentials: 45% heat rejection, 74% infrared rejection, and 99% ultraviolet block. Those numbers translate directly to reduced HVAC load on sun-exposed floors in Center City high-rises and to slower fading of flooring, furnishings, and artwork throughout the building envelope. A 0.63 shading coefficient positions it in the moderate performance tier — more assertive than clear glass, less aggressive than darker films.
In Rittenhouse Square residences and Fishtown live-work spaces, Nova 70 handles afternoon west light without the reflective exterior look that neighboring rowhomes sometimes reject. The neutral appearance on both sides makes it compatible with historic district glass requirements where mirrored or heavily tinted treatments may face restrictions from city review boards.
Window Film Philadelphia evaluates Nova 70 suitability against glass type, orientation, frame condition, and any Low-E coating present before recommending a final specification. Carries Madico's lifetime residential warranty and 15-year commercial coverage.
