[REVIEW] Raytech’s New Technology Window Film: A Pleasant Surprise in Terms of Quality and Value

Introducing the American brand “Standard”

With over 30 years of experience, the Raytech heat-resistant film brand from the United States has established itself in 59 countries and territories worldwide. In Vietnam, Raytech heat-resistant film is exclusively distributed by SHITEK Co., Ltd., offering unique product lines that combine the benefits of ceramic and metal technologies in a single film sheet.

Despite being a newcomer to the Vietnamese market, Raytech heat-resistant film has quickly gained recognition for its superior quality and lifetime product warranty policy. The product has already made its way into numerous Ford, Toyota, and Honda dealerships, as well as being selected for exclusive use in over 10 authorized dealer showrooms and a reputable nationwide sales system.

Raytech currently focuses on promoting three main product lines – automotive heat-resistant film (for glass surfaces), paint protection film PPF (for automotive exterior), and architectural film (for buildings with large glass windows).

On the market, ceramic film and metal film are the two popular types of heat-resistant film products. Ceramic film offers good visibility without interference from phone signals or interior glare. However, it has relatively low durability due to factors such as sunlight and UV rays, resulting in the breakdown of the ceramic particles after around 2-3 years of usage.

The second type is metal film, which provides superior durability for up to several decades, offering effective heat insulation. However, the metal particles between the film sheets cause reflections on the car’s surfaces, resulting in glare for both the driver and passengers. Additionally, these particles also interfere with phone signals and may lead to glass edge oxidation.

Raytech heat-resistant film combines the strengths of both ceramic and metal films, utilizing a dual-zone technology. The film provides impressive solar energy removal performance, including effective heat removal, high durability, and resistance to phone signal interference, glare, and glass edge oxidation. Additionally, Raytech helps reduce glare for drivers and offers protection against harmful ultraviolet rays. The film also ensures privacy while promoting safety and health for users.

Impressive results from various tests

Raytech heat-resistant film has undergone a series of rigorous tests, showcasing its exceptional quality and efficiency. The product was directly installed and tested on the latest 2022 version of the legendary Toyota SUV, the Land Cruiser.

Heat insulation tests using a professional measuring device revealed that Raytech film achieved remarkable results. The film reduced infrared energy from 56 W/m² to approximately 7 W/m² for the Ultra70 product and around 5 W/m² for the RC20 product. This indicates that Raytech film offers over 90% heat insulation efficiency.

Using the same measuring device, the light transmission rate for Raytech Ultra 70 film was determined to be 71%, accompanied by an impressive 99.7% UV removal efficiency. The film also demonstrated a 93.9% energy removal capability. On the other hand, the Raytech RC20 heat-resistant film exhibited a light transmission rate of only 15.9%, a 99.9% UV removal efficiency, and a 96% total energy removal rate. These results were obtained from tests conducted on the windshield and side windows of the Land Cruiser 2022, respectively.

Authentic Raytech products in Vietnam

The Raytech heat-resistant films used in the Land Cruiser test, namely RC20 and Ultra70, are entirely imported from the United States by SHITEK. The company also offers a wide range of other products that cater to various needs and budgets. The FC, RC, Q70, and QC20 film lines are all imported directly from the United States by SHITEK.

The technicians responsible for installing the heat-resistant film undergo comprehensive training from SHITEK. They follow a six-step process to ensure the highest quality of installation for all their products.

Customers will be pleasantly surprised by the affordability of Raytech products, considering their numerous advantages. For instance, the highest-level premium film installation package for the Land Cruiser 2022, which includes Ultra70 film for the windshield and RC20 film for the side windows, costs only about 13 million VND (for a full-size SUV).

Additionally, customers can also benefit from special promotional programs during the summer season. The highest-level installation package includes a free ceramic coating for the exterior surfaces of the car. The package, which costs about 15 million VND, covers the installation of premium films on the largest SUV models and includes ceramic coating for the entire vehicle. This promotional offer is valid from June to August 2022.

The cost of film installation for smaller cars will vary depending on the package chosen, corresponding to the size of the car. As an example, the smallest car in the market, such as the VinFast Fadil, can be fitted with Raytech films for as low as 6 million VND (6,050,000 VND). This is an incredibly attractive price point!

In conclusion, Raytech ceramic-metal heat-resistant film stands out as an exceptionally superior product line. It combines the advantages of two popular heat-resistant film products available on the market and has gained the trust of reputable car brands. Raytech products are competitively priced and come with SHITEK’s lifetime product warranty policy. With its comprehensive range of advantages, Raytech heat-resistant film is an irresistible choice for car owners, particularly during the summer season. SHITEK confidently positions Raytech products alongside other major names in the heat-resistant film market, such as 3M, Llumar, and Vkool.
