Stop Your Windows From Destroying Your Turf
Low-e and reflective windows can act like magnifying lenses — focusing intense heat onto artificial turf and melting it. Sungate's turf protection film stops the problem at the glass.
Your Energy-Efficient Windows May Be the Problem
Modern low-e glass is great for energy efficiency — but at certain sun angles, the reflective coating acts like a magnifying lens, concentrating solar energy into a focused beam that can reach temperatures exceeding 200°F.
Low-E Windows Are the Culprit
Energy-efficient low-e glass reflects solar energy outward — but at certain sun angles that reflected beam concentrates into a focused hot spot, just like a magnifying glass.
Temperatures Can Exceed 200°F
The reflected beam can reach temperatures high enough to melt synthetic turf fibers, warp the backing material, and permanently destroy your lawn.
Film Stops It at the Source
Turf protection film intercepts that solar energy before it ever leaves the glass — eliminating the hot spot entirely without replacing your windows.
What Turf Protection Film Does
Applied directly to the exterior surface of your glass, the film intercepts solar energy before it can be reflected outward — eliminating the hot spot without replacing your windows.
Heat Gain Reduction
Rejects a significant percentage of solar infrared energy before it passes through the glass — dramatically lowering the radiant heat transmitted onto the turf below.
Targeted Solar Control
Selectively blocks harmful infrared wavelengths while allowing visible light through — maintaining natural brightness and clear views from inside.
Long-Term Turf Protection
Minimizes extreme temperature spikes on synthetic surfaces, extending the lifespan of your turf investment and preventing costly replacements.
UV & Glare Reduction
Blocks up to 99% of UV rays and reduces glare — protecting your turf, your furnishings, and your comfort all at once.
Common Applications
Anywhere reflective or low-e glass is near synthetic turf, rooftop gardens, or outdoor synthetic surfaces — turf protection film is the right solution.

Common Questions
Will the film change how my windows look from inside?
Minimal difference. The film is designed to maintain natural light and clear views while blocking the specific infrared wavelengths that cause heat damage.
Does it work on all window types?
Yes — turf protection film can be applied to most residential and commercial glass, including single-pane, double-pane, and low-e windows.
How long does installation take?
Most residential jobs are completed in a single day. Larger commercial projects may take longer depending on square footage.
