Japanese Heat-Reflecting Films
What Is Sumitomo Refleshine Solar Film?
Sumitomo Refleshine solar film is a Japanese window film range designed for heat control, UV protection, natural daylight and better indoor comfort.
In Singapore, it is commonly compared by homeowners, condo owners and commercial users who want stronger heat reduction without making the room feel too dark.
The main Refleshine models to compare are SEF25, TW32 and TW36A. SEF25 is suitable for stronger heat-control needs, TW36A gives a balanced appearance, while TW32 is suitable when customers want a brighter interior finish.

Sumitomo Refleshine SEF25 : Latest New Model
Sumitomo Refleshine SEF25 provides stronger heat and glare control than the brighter TW32 and TW36A models. It suits west-facing windows, offices and commercial glass exposed to intense sunlight.
Important: With published visible reflectance of 59%, SEF25 may not meet HDB’s reflectance requirement. Check the property and façade rules before recommending this model.
SEF25 may look darker or more reflective, so glass compatibility and building approval should be checked before installation.
For a clearer premium finish, compare it with 3M Prestige or 3M Ceramic IR.

Understanding Sumitomo Refleshine Specifications
Estimated TSER = 1 − (Shading Coefficient × 0.87)The TSER figures shown are comparison estimates, not manufacturer-published ratings. Actual Sumitomo Refleshine solar-film performance depends on the glass type, window direction, surrounding shade and installation conditions.
SEF25 has a significantly higher published visible reflectance of 59%, compared with 19% for TW36A and 15% for TW32.
HDB window film should be non-reflective or not exceed 20% reflectance. SEF25 should therefore not be treated as an automatic option for HDB windows.
For condominiums, offices and other managed buildings, check the MCST or façade requirements before installation.

Key Benefits Of Sumitomo Refleshine Solar Films
Refleshine is chosen by customers who want a balanced solution between clarity, comfort and solar protection.
Heat Reduction
Refleshine helps reduce solar heat entering through glass, lowering heat buildup in rooms exposed to strong sunlight.
UV Protection
Refleshine blocks more than 99% of UV rays, helping protect furniture, flooring and interior finishes from UV-related fading.
Natural Daylight
TW32 and TW36A allow more daylight into the room, helping interiors stay bright while providing solar protection.
Indoor Comfort
Lower solar heat and glare can make homes, offices and commercial interiors more comfortable during bright, sunny periods.
Energy Efficiency
Lower heat buildup may reduce air-conditioning demand and support improved energy efficiency, depending on building conditions.
Refleshine SEF25, TW32 & TW36A : Which Model Should You Choose?
Choosing the right Sumitomo Refleshine model depends on your heat problem, brightness preference, glass direction, privacy expectation and building rules.
SEF25 is usually chosen for stronger heat control, TW32 is chosen for a brighter finish, while TW36A sits between both options.
If your room feels very hot in the afternoon, SEF25 may be more suitable. If your main concern is UV protection and comfort while keeping the glass bright, TW32 or TW36A may be easier to accept visually.
For customers who prefer a premium non-metallic option with lower signal concern, 3M Prestige Window Films may be a better comparison.

It can be considered for HDB windows, especially where heat and glare are concerns. Exterior appearance, reflectivity and glass type should be reviewed first.
Is Sumitomo Refleshine solar films better than 3M Prestige?
It depends on what you value more. Refleshine is attractive for Japanese heat-reflecting technology and strong UV protection. 3M Prestige is often preferred for its non-metallic design, premium appearance and lower signal concerns. Zenith can compare both based on your windows.
Does Sumitomo Refleshine solar film come with warranty?
