One-way vision film is perforated self-adhesive vinyl, printed on its outer face and black behind, that shows a full-colour image to people outside while letting those inside see out through the holes.
Why choose one-way vision film for a business in Edinburgh?
- Trades vans parked at jobs around Edinburgh turn the rear window into advertising, with the driver using two exterior mirrors.
- Salons in Edinburgh can show bold imagery to passers-by in daylight without clients feeling on display in the chair.
- An Edinburgh unit with tall glazing can carry one large image across several panes, if the artwork is planned around the frames.

Rules for window and glass graphics in Edinburgh
Scottish planning authorities vary on whether window graphics count as advertisements. Much internal vinyl is outside control or allowed, but a conservation area or listed frontage can restrict larger graphics, and listed building consent may be relevant too. Safety is the other consideration. Scotland's building standards have their own guidance on making glazing visible, while in workplaces the 1992 Workplace Regulations (regulation 14) require marking where necessary. Before the proof for one-way vision film is approved, we confirm the heights for any manifestation and raise any planning point with you.
