(May 30, 2008—HOUSTON) Hüper Optik, a leader in the window film and energy solutions industry, recently earned National Fenestration Rating Council certification on its dual layer and single layer ceramic film lines, and its entire line of Select Series films. The company is only the second window film interest to achieve this accolade.
“We have been working diligently in collaboration with our manufacturing partner, Southwall Energy Technologies, to have our films tested by the NFRC…and we are so proud of this accomplishment. Combining resources upstream was a definite green solution, the resources used to test the films were reduced, and we saved time, energy and left behind less of a carbon footprint during the testing,” said Hüper Optik President and CEO, Faisal Nazir. The specific Hüper Optik films earning NFRC certification are: Ceramic 20, Ceramic 30, Ceramic 40, Ceramic 50, Energy Saver Ceramic 35 and 45, and Select Acht, Drei and Sech.
“We are hoping to work very closely with architectural firms, utility companies, state energy offices, and commercial properties to really bring energy usage under control, and provide a daylighting option, especially for today’s window-filled buildings. The highly respected NFRC certification will add credibility and help us assist a wider range of organizations seeking LEED certification, “ Nazir adds. The National Fenestration Rating Council (www.nfrc.org) maintains the only uniform, non-federal testing procedure and guidelines for fenestration products in the U.S. Certification by the council is sought by municipalities, commercial and residential LEED projects, and utility companies, specifically for demand-side management programs. The Council provides continuing education and professional growth opportunities to architects, green-collar professionals, specification writers, state energy managers and other industry professionals.
Hüper Optik provides patented German technologies for solar energy control and security solutions for residential, and commercial customers in architectural, automotive and marine industries. Hüper Optik products are available through a strategic network of authorized dealers in the United States and Canada.
