How much does window film cost?
Whether you are installing window tinting film in your home, retail store or office, you will want to know the rough cost before proceeding with getting a quotation. At Laminas we make things really easy for you and you ONLY pay for the material that is used on your glass. We have flat rates that cover all of our product range which are calculated based on a per square metre price of 200dhs/psm. A typical 3 bedroom villa will cost 5,000-9,000dhs for full installation while a typical office project can range between 5,000 – 25,000dhs depending on the amount of glass to be treated.
We offer discounted per square metre pricing for larger quantities over 50sqm and 100+sqm.
Although the prices mentioned are a good indication, what makes Laminas unique is how we use our spare material to ensure maximum cost effectiveness. While other companies may throw away their wastage, we keep these off-cuts and apply them on future projects which means that you, the customer, don’t pay for any unused materials.

Laminas – 3 quick reasons why we are different
For the last 10 months Laminas has been in Dubai’s window film marketplace offering a unique service to our customers. During this time we have come across a few companies offering a similar, but inadequate service to clients which hurts our industry as whole.
Here are 3 quick reasons why we are different and continue to grow in the UAE:
1. We always visit the customer to discuss their requirement.
The number of times we have heard of customers just being sent a price without any sort of consultation is incredible. Laminas takes the time to attend every customer enquiry to ensure that the product specified is the right solution, this not only means a more personalised service but also the customer is happy and confident in what the end result will be.
2. We use modern day products which far outperform the ‘old school’ ones.
Laminas’ range of UAE specific window films are selected for this region from our vast experience with home and building owners. We no longer use the classic ‘mirror’ films which were popular 20 years ago, at night these films turn into an internal mirror, making the room/office/store uncomfortable. These old films have been outgrown by new Dual Reflective films which have the benefit of low interior reflectancy while still keeping the high heat rejection properties. Our almost invisble range of films are perfect for customers who want to retain their existing glass look such as retail stores, showrooms and residential properties.
3. We are Window Film experts.. this is what we do.
Laminas only works on residential and commercial properties, we do not offer car tinting or any other services. This means we are focussed on our customers needs and use our vast experience to be able to offer the highest quality product and service. We treat each project with the care and attention it deserves to ensure that the customer is happy and the problem has been solved.
To summarise, we are unique in what we offer the customer. Be it our climate specific range of products, our energy saving calculation or our outstanding customer service – Laminas is helping all types of clients with their window film requirements while education and growing awareness of such a multi-beneficial service.
If you have a sun related problem or want to reduce your energy bills then give us a call. No gimmicks just high standards from start to finish.
Tips for Getting Your Home Ready for the Dubai Summer
Dubai’s sweltering summer is coming and before it gets hot you might want to do a quick check that your villa or apartment is ready for the summer heat. The first place to start is to check your current air conditioning system and then we look at measures to block the heat coming into your home.
Maintenance
To begin, change your filters in your cooling system. Change them regularly – at least quarterly to ensure maximum efficiency in cooling. In particularly dusty weather such as ours, things tend to get a bit clogged up over time. There are also companies that will flush out and clean your AC system to ensure they are working as new.
Testing
Now is a good time to test your air conditioning system to see that it is running effectively, it’s better to test it now while you can really feel the difference than in the summer when you’ll not be sure of the effectiveness.
If your air conditioner is not cooling effectively and needs replacement, do it before the hot weather hits so you’re not sweating. The air-conditioning repair people are very busy. And more than likely, some other things around your home might need attention as well.
Leaks?
Your air ducts may need testing for leaks and then sealed, this is how warm air gets in and cool air escapes.
House Fans
Consider installing a whole-house fan that pushes the cooled air around the house in the evening. Ceiling fans or whole house fans can help reduce your need to use the air conditioner, although in our climate you will still be facing a bit of a battle in the extreme peaks.
Solar Control Window Film
You may want to consider installing solar control window film which is applied to the glass windows and doors on the inside and can block over 50% of the heat coming into your home.
We all want our homes to be cool and comfortable, unfortunately in our climate this is something of a struggle. With under-performing air conditioning units coupled with low cost standard development glazing, our window film is the most effective way to upgrade the glass performance.
Laminas offers a full range of sunlight protection window films made specially for Dubai’s climate and to compliment your property. With varying technologies, shades, tint levels, colours and appearances – we are sure to easily match your requirement.
Improve Comfort & Save Money
Typically 50-70% of a home energy bill is made up from the power required to run air conditioning effectively. Laminas window film works by rejecting large amounts of heat from entering your home, keeping interior temperatures more controllable and stable. By running your air conditioning less, you consume less energy, reducing your carbon footprint and saving money on utility bills. Home window tinting with Laminas films can reduce an average DEWA energy bill by 30% per month, saving you money with an instant payback of only a few years.
