(Newswire.net — February 20, 2015) Albany, Auckland — Kiwi Home Owners are facing another hot dry Summer. Thousands of families, some with pets, will endure many hot and unpleasant hours in their homes, and holiday houses.
Most Kiwis are aware of the danger of excessive ultraviolet (UV) rays and infrared rays from the sun, but unaware that even sitting at home indoors, leaves you exposed. The same UV and infrared rays that damage carpet and furnishings, also damage people. However, a very low percentage of people have installed any kind of UV Glass Protection to protect from harmful UV rays, infrared rays, and solar heat, which regular window glass does not block.
To help address this problem, Auckland based Glass Coatings NZ, launched a new liquid glass coating for windows, into the New Zealand market this summer. Glass Coatings NZ’s UV Protection For Windows is a liquid nano glass coating, where millions of microscopic particles work together to intercept infrared and ultraviolet UV radiation from the sun. As a result, 95% of Infrared rays and over 99% of Ultra Violet rays are blocked, keeping the home a more comfortable temperature. Not only does this improve comfort, but it can also reduce the need for fans and air conditioning, therefore reducing power bills. Also, the Ultra Violet light which damages and fade carpet and furnishings is also blocked.
“It’s like applying a permanent sun block to your windows”, said Carole Wotherspoon, owner of Glass Coatings NZ. “Most Kiwi home owners don’t think to apply sun cream to themselves when inside, but the threat of UV (ultra-violet) damage is also prevalent indoors. If it’s damaging your carpet and furnishings, it’s also damaging you. The UV Protective Coating for windows is one of the best ways to give your furnishings and family, Protection From ultraviolet Rays, while also keeping cool.”
Glass Coatings NZ’s nanotechnology based window glass UV protection, is rolled on like paint, leaves windows clear, and retains a healthy level of natural light. The UV Protective Coating for window glass, keeps the Summer heat out and in winter, the warmth generated from heating equipment stays in, massively reducing electricity usage.

About Glass Coatings NZ
Because of the Fukushima Nuclear Explosion, the people of Japan are now very fearful of Nuclear Power Plants. Their Government has been assisting Nano-Technology companies to find ways to reduce electricity consumption in city high rises, small businesses and homes, by improving insulation, so that there is less usage of air conditioning in the summer, and heating in the winter. One such company in Japan, that is at the forefront of this is Sketch. Sketch nano-technology is now available in NZ through Glass Coatings NZ.
