Do you offer architectural window film samples?

Yes. Flexfilm offers two ways to evaluate architectural window film before you commit to a full roll: the Architectural Sample Book (or individual sample pages from it) and, for many films, a small DIY-size roll.

The Architectural Sample Book

The Architectural Sample Book is a practical guide for choosing the right window film. Each page showcases a film sample along with product specifications and a film-to-glass compatibility chart, helping you match films to different glass types with confidence. It is a good fit for professionals who want to show customers real film samples and check compatibility in one place.

Individual Sample Pages

If you only need specific films, you can purchase individual pages from the sample book. Each purchase is a single page, printed front and back, with a sample of the specific product. The page includes product benefits, a film-to-glass compatibility chart, and essential specification data.

Individual pages are useful for evaluating shade, reflectivity, color, and appearance before buying a larger roll, or for building a customized binder to present to your own customers. Pages are available for:

• Dualflex: 5%, 15%, 25%, 35%
• Chromoflex: 15%, 20%, 35%
• Sputterflex Neutral: 20%, 35%
• Sputterflex Bronze: 20%, 35%
• Panashield: 40%, 50%, 70%
• White Frost, White Out, and Black Out
• Safetyflex: 4 mil and 7 mil

Each page includes an 8" x 9" cutout of the film. That is enough to judge shade, color, and reflectivity, but it is not the same as seeing the film installed on real glass.

DIY-Size Rolls as a Hands-On Sample

For a true test on real glass, several architectural films are also offered in DIY sizes, most commonly 36" x 15'. A roll this size can cover a few standard windows, so it works well for a small project, a test window, or trying out a film before ordering a professional roll. Current DIY options include:

• Dualflex (36" wide, 15' length)
• Chromoflex (36" wide, 15' length)
• White Frost (36" wide, 15' length)
• White Out (36" x 15' and 40" x 15')
• Black Out (36" x 15')
• Panashield (40" x 15')

Keep in mind that DIY architectural rolls are generally not eligible for return. If you are still deciding between films, start with the sample pages or the sample book, then move to a DIY roll once you know what you want. A DIY application tool kit is also available if you do not already have installation tools.

Which Option Should You Choose?

• Comparing shades and appearances: individual sample pages.
• Presenting options to customers or checking glass compatibility across many films: the full Architectural Sample Book.
• Testing a film on real glass: a DIY-size roll.

Sample products are excluded from Dealer Rewards points and discount codes, so check the product page for the latest details before ordering.

• Individual pages from the book can be purchased for specific films and shades.
