CARBON vs CERAMIC TINT
CARBON
Carbon window tint is made from carbon particles mixed into the film. These particles absorb light, especially the sun’s infrared rays that carry heat. As such, a vehicle with carbon-tinted windows will experience less thermal energy, thereby maintaining a cooler interior. In addition to heat reduction, carbon tint also reduces visible light transmission, which means fewer glares to distract you while you’re behind the wheel. Some of the significant benefits of carbon tint include its non-reflective finish and complete privacy. It is also known to resist fading over time, providing consistent and high-quality aesthetics. However, while carbon window tint films are effective in blocking heat and sunlight, they aren’t as effective in blocking harmful UV rays when compared to Ceramic tint.
CERAMIC
Ceramic window tint is made with non-conductive, non-metallic ceramic particles. These particles have the unique ability to block up to 99% of the UV rays from the sun— far more than the average carbon or metallic tints. This exceptional UV protection quality not only helps to protect the vehicle’s interior from fading but also helps protect the skin from harmful UVB rays. Ceramic window tint is also highly effective in heat reduction due to its ability to cut out infrared light. Despite being powerfully resistant to both heat and UV light, ceramic window tints do not compromise visibility. In contrast to darker tints such as carbon tint, these enable a high degree of visibility, thereby improving the driver’s safety, particularly during nighttime driving.
