Madico Optivision 45

About Optivision 45

Optivision 45 leads the Decorator Series with 51% visible light transmission — bright enough for most office environments — and a critical design advantage: night neutrality. Standard reflective films shift appearance dramatically at dusk, creating a mirror-like exterior that some Philadelphia building owners and historic review boards find objectionable. Optivision's night-neutral construction avoids that shift, maintaining a consistent low-reflectance appearance from morning through evening.

For Center City commercial properties, Midtown Village boutique offices, and Rittenhouse Square residential towers where facades remain visible from the street after dark, Optivision 45 provides a solution that improves daytime solar performance without introducing an industrial appearance at night. With 36% heat rejection and 48% infrared rejection, it contributes meaningfully to occupant comfort on moderately exposed glass without requiring the darker VLT options for summer performance.

On the residential side, Optivision 45 suits Fishtown and Northern Liberties condos and apartments where street-level views into living spaces become a privacy concern after dark. The film reduces exterior reflectance at night compared to standard solar films, making interiors less visible from outside while preserving comfortable interior light levels during the day.

The 99% UV block applies throughout the Decorator Series, protecting materials, artwork, and finishes regardless of which Optivision shade is selected. Madico backs the line with lifetime residential and 15-year commercial warranty coverage.
