Studies show that having windows in your office is actually beneficial to your business and employees. That’s because windows allow for natural light to come into your building. Exposure to sunlight actually improves employee productivity, creates a more sterile environment, and reduces absenteeism rates. All things considered, it’s not such a wonder why “window seats” are so coveted by office employees. But the problem is that the sun only reaches so far, leaving spaces in the middle of your building dark and dim. That is, until the experts at 3M came up with a solution that allows everyone in the office to enjoy the sun. Daylight Redirecting Film can bring natural light deeper into your Fort Collins commercial building. And because it eliminates the need for artificial lighting, it can actually reduce your annual energy spendings.

The Benefits of the Sun

Did you know that the sun is good for your health and your mood? Exposure to sunlight actually stimulates the production of endorphins and white blood cells. Endorphins work to give our bodies energy and put us in a more positive mood. And an increase of white blood cells can strengthen your immune system. So when you and your employees are exposed to natural light, your office actually becomes healthier and more productive.

Natural Light Reduces Your Energy Costs

Not only is natural light good for you and your employees, but it can also reduce your operational costs. It’s estimated that the average business spends about 15-35% of their energy costs on artificial lighting. But this cost could be dramatically reduced by increasing the presence of sunlight. Because the sunlight brightens your space naturally, it eliminates the need for artificial or fluorescent lighting.

How Daylight Redirecting Film Works

3M Daylight Redirecting Film is a smart investment for Fort Collins businesses. It works by extending the reach of the sun deeper into your building, by up to 40 feet. When the sunlight enters your windows, this film redirects it upward toward the ceiling and then distributes it evenly throughout the room. That way, literally your entire office is filled with the beautiful light of the sun instead of just the areas near your windows.
