Anti-Glare Solutions
Are you familiar with this problem?
-
Your initial situation
The glare effect caused by solar modules is a common obstacle in the implementation of PV systems. Especially on residential roofs, glare issues are usually only discovered after the solar system has already been installed.
In the course of the energy transition, such glare scenarios will increasingly occur in neighborhoods, alongside roads, or at airports.

Our solution
The anti-glare film from Phytonics is an effective solution that can be applied to both new solar modules and existing systems. By applying the film, solar modules become low-glare and therefore no longer cause disturbance.
In densely populated neighborhoods, next to roads, and at airports, low-glare solar modules enable the sustainable and successful implementation of PV projects.
Glare effect caused by solar modules
The glare effect caused by solar modules is a common obstacle in the implementation of PV systems. Especially on residential roofs, glare issues are usually only identified after the solar system has already been installed. However, with the increasing prevalence of PV systems, it is expected that glare problems will occur more frequently. In densely populated neighborhoods, alongside roads, and at airports, glare-free solar modules enable the sustainable and successful implementation of PV projects.
Best solution on the market
Our anti-glare film can be applied to all types of solar modules and significantly reduces glare!
Even at very shallow angles of incidence of up to 70°, the reflected luminance remains well below a value of 75,000 cd/m². This means that the XRF anti-glare film far exceeds other glare-reducing products.
All-round worry-free package

We take care of the lamination of your solar modules with our partner network. Please contact us for this!
Why do solar modules cause glare?
Whether solar modules cause glare is perceived differently by people. However, to objectively assess the glare effect, a threshold value has been established: surfaces with higher reflected luminance are considered "glare-inducing".
Standard anti-reflective glasses significantly exceed this value. Modules with the Phytonics anti-glare film remain below it – and are therefore considered low-glare, as confirmed by studies from Prof. Bucher (Bern University of Applied Sciences).
Are you planning a commercial PV system?
Does your glare report indicate significant impairments for residents or road users?
Our anti-glare film offers an effective solution to reduce disturbing reflections and thus enables approval.

Minimal impact on yield
The Phytonics anti-glare film reduces the solar module output power at perpendicular light incidence to about 97% to 95% of the original power. The exact value depends on the respective module type.
Easy to retrofit – but how?
For an optimal installation result, we recommend involving a sign technician or film applicator for the application of the anti-glare film. We are happy to connect you with one of our partners in your region for this purpose.
How durable is the film?
The PMMA base film from Orafol is extremely UV stable and is additionally protected against weathering by our microstructured coating. External aging tests confirm outstanding durability.
Installation of the anti-glare film
Alternatively, you can apply the film yourself. The foiling can be done by hand and is best done with two people – please refer to the installation instructions on YouTube!
