Smart film for meeting rooms and glass walls
Published on · Privé Glas
Glass walls make an office bright and open. But as soon as a confidential conversation, a job interview or a presentation with sensitive figures is scheduled, you do not want everyone watching. Smart film solves that: the glass wall turns frosted when you want, and clear again afterwards.
The glass office dilemma
Glass brings daylight deep into the building, makes rooms feel larger and supports an open culture. Yet not every conversation needs an audience. Fixed frosted film takes away that openness, and blinds or curtains often do not suit a clean office interior.
Smart film combines both: open when possible, private when needed.
How it works in a meeting room
The film is made to measure for your existing glass walls or doors. Without power it is frosted, with a milky-glass effect: light keeps coming in, but from outside people can no longer see clearly what is happening. With power the film turns clear, with 92% transparency.

Control for everyone
In an office, control must be simple. With smart film you switch via the app or the remote control. The Wi-Fi transformer also works with Google Home and Alexa, so a voice command is enough.
Typical office applications
Smart film is often used for:
- meeting rooms with glass walls;
- executive and manager offices;
- HR and interview rooms;
- phone booths and focus rooms;
- glass doors to archive or server rooms;
- windows facing a corridor or the street.
Benefits for your organisation
You keep the daylight and open look of your office while offering discretion for sensitive conversations. There are no curtains or blinds to gather dust. Because the film goes on the existing glass, you do not need to replace glass walls.
The film blocks up to 99% of UV radiation. You get a 4-year warranty.
Worked example for a glass wall
Take a glass wall of 3.0 × 2.5 m, or 7.5 m². The film then costs €1,342.50 (€179 per m²). With the Wi-Fi transformer at €149.99, the total is €1,492.49 excl. VAT, without installation.

Hassle-free installation
The film arrives cut to size and tested, with busbars, cables, a manual and an installation video. Your own installer can fit it, or you choose installation by Privé Glas's certified installers. Privé Glas always comes to install, anywhere in Belgium; for longer distances travel costs are added and shown in the quote.
