When it comes to enhancing your property’s privacy and security, window frosting is often a good idea, regardless of whether you own a home, business, or both. You can pick from frosted window glass, or simply frosted window film. However, what is the difference between the two?

In this blog, we will discuss these differences in more detail, hopefully helping you determine which of the two is best for your specific needs and requirements.

Let’s get started.

Frosted Window Glass

Frosted window glass is a permanent solution to window frosting, meaning that frosted glass is installed on the windows and doors to replace the existing glass. This is often pre-made and once installed, it can be difficult to customise. It is also a durable option, however, it still requires time, money, and effort for it to be installed. Nonetheless, it is a viable option if you believe that you will benefit from the frosted window glass in the long term, especially for upgrading the privacy of homes and offices.

Frosted Window Film

Meanwhile, frosted window film is an alternative to frosted window glass that is non-permanent and easily customisable. It is often available in a wide variety of different designs, styles, and colours, making it an excellent choice for those looking for a specific aesthetic. It can also be applied and removed with ease, making it useful for promotion-based window frosting for businesses.

The Main Differences

As you can see, although they are similar, they are also very different. In fact, the main differences between the two are:

• Customisation – frosted window film is more customisable than frosted window glass
• Installation – frosted window glass is more difficult and time-consuming to install (and remove) compared to the other
• Cost – frosted window film is more likely to be cheaper than frosted glass, both in installation and production
