Window Tint Film or Window tints or Glass glazing, were first introduced in the United States of America in the year 1950; window films were developed and manufactured for space shuttles by NASA. A highly reflective insulating material was developed to protect NASA spacecraft from intense solar radiation in space. This technology was then adopted by the building industry, for the purpose of solar heat rejection. Since then the industry produced various styles of window films from poly poplin materials. American manufacturers were dying these films in the 1960, in the 70s they started metalizing them. In the 80s and the 90s high performance sputter coated and see through safety security films were developed. With passage of time the technology improved immensely as per the requirements of the market and a long lasting, durable and weather resistant product was introduced. Madico® window films can withstand upto 180 degrees heat, and are fire retardant.

Nigeria is a tropical country in west Africa, temperatures during the hot months surge up to 42*C, major challenge for property managers is cost of energy. Here in Nigeria majority (80%) of the power requirement generation is through Generators which run on Diesel.
