Solar control film by GOCUBE to challenge climate change
It's had its own concert, celebrities and politicians from all over the
world have views on it and now it's your chance to make a difference. Climate change is a
hot topic around the world, due to the significant risk threatening the longevity of our
planet. The Australian Government, Bureau of Meteorology has emphasised the need for change
by drawing attention to an expected increase in temperature for the majority of Australia
in the recent publication 'National Seasonal Temperature Outlook: probabilities for August
to October 2007, issued 24/07/07'.
It is expected that between August and October, Sydney and other parts of NSW are at a
75%-80% chance of exceeding the median temperature for the season. This anticipated rise
in temperature may result in an earlier demand for air conditioning, increasing energy
consumption and greenhouse pollution.
Take action towards protection by installing Solar Control Window Films. Already recognised
by BASIX (Building Sustainability Index) and WERS (Window Energy Rating Scheme).
"The application of film can positively contribute to a building's energy rating"
(http://www.wers.net/, 14/08/07).
Installation of Solar Control Film reduces heat transference from outside in. Limiting the
volume of solar energy entering the building/room reduces the need for artificial coolers
such as air conditioners and fans to maintain a comfortable, workable temperature.
GOCUBE recommends the use of Solar Gard window film manufactured by Bekaert
Speciality Films. These high quality films are available in a range of colour's, finishes
and densities. A number of Bekaert Films are already WERS accredited
