What it is
Smart film, in one paragraph
Smart film — also called smart tint, switchable privacy film or electric privacy glass — is a PDLC laminate bonded to existing glass. Unpowered, it scatters light and reads as frost. Powered, it clears. Ghost Glass™ lists the system at 45–60 VAC and 0.5 watts per square foot, with up to 99.99% UV protection.
- PDLC film is custom fabricated to your measured glass and applied to the existing pane — the glass itself is not replaced.
- With power off the film is frosted for privacy; with power on it turns clear. The change is immediate and there are no moving parts.
- The system runs on low voltage, listed by the manufacturer at 45–60 VAC and 0.5 W per square foot.
- Control can be a wall switch, a remote, or a compatible smart control system depending on the project.
- Maximum cut width is 5.9 ft; length is unlimited, so wide openings are planned as multiple coordinated panels.
- Ghost Glass™ lists up to 99.99% UV protection.
Two worlds, one product
Homes that lose the blinds. Buildings that gain a wall.
Applications
Where switchable film earns its place
On desktop, hovering a card previews the frosted state. Every image is a stock interior used for illustration, not a completed installation.
Process
How a project runs
Five stages, from first measurement to a commissioned, tested wall of glass.
- 01
Measure & design
We measure each pane, map the wiring path, choose a transformer location and agree the control method before anything is ordered.
- 02
Custom fabrication
Film is fabricated to your exact glass dimensions by Ghost Glass™. Normal product lead time is 12–20 working days depending on size and quantity.
- 03
Dry-apply installation
PDLC film is dry-applied to the existing glass — no water or slip solution — with careful edge detailing and busbar protection.
- 04
Licensed electrician connection
A licensed electrician makes the electrical connections and terminates the low-voltage supply, as required by the manufacturer.
- 05
Commission & test
Every panel is switched, tested and handed over with control instructions and manufacturer warranty documentation.

Two states, one pane of glass
Drag the divider — or use the slider — to compare the frosted privacy state with the clear state. Both are visualizations, not photographs of a completed installation.
Placeholder poster — replace with approved transition footage before launch.
Planning range
$35–$85 per sq ft installed
Installed planning range. Where a project lands inside the range depends on panel sizes, quantity, wiring path, control method, access, edge detailing and electrical coordination.
What moves the number
- Panel sizes and how many panes the opening needs
- Wiring path and how far the film is from a power source
- Transformer location and whether wiring is concealed
- Control method: switch, remote or smart integration
- Access, height and site conditions on installation day
Planning range only — not a quote. Final pricing is confirmed after measurement, a wiring-path review and a control-method decision.
