Often used for branding, decoration, or safety purposes, window graphics are a practical way to transform glass surfaces into commercial and residential spaces. As their name suggests, they are vinyl films printed and installed on windows. With bold designs or subtle frosted films, they can enhance both the appearance and functionality of spaces.
Window manifestations, while the same kind of design, are required by law in offices and public buildings to make larger glass panels more visible to prevent accidents and ensure building regulations. Furthermore, if you have transparent glass, you are legally required to identify the glass to avoid any accidental human impact, which is where window vinyl helps.

Our Window Graphic Products
We offer several types of window graphics, and you can design your own with our custom window vinyl packages.
Full Colour Printed Vinyl
These allow any image, design, or branding to be printed directly onto window vinyl and applied to the glass. A versatile solution, they’re perfect for bold displays, retail promotions, or creative window graphics for decoration.
One-Way Vision Graphics
Also known as Contra Vision, these window graphics are perforated vinyl film that is only visible from one side of the glass. They clearly display your message to outside viewers while adding privacy to the interior. They’re ideal for retail environments, transport graphics like on the side of a bus, or office privacy.
Ultra Clear Vinyl
A transparent film printed with graphics or texts to create the effect of a floating design, this window vinyl is designed to have minimal visibility on glass and help maintain a clear view. It provides crystal-clear visibility from both sides and is ideal for nighttime use, adding a sharp edge when light shines through it.
Textile Window Vinyl
These window graphics are often used for decorative purposes and almost have a fabric texture, adding warmth and softness to glass surfaces. A newer addition to our window range, this revolutionary textile-printed window graphic offers a unique but modern look for businesses to office manifestations.
Optical Clear Vinyl
An ultra-transparent film that allows for high-quality, full-colour printing while maintaining clarity where there is no window graphic print. Optical clear is often used for complex designs where parts of the glass need to stay completely clear. It is great for retail or office spaces to add colour without reducing the light coming in.
Printed Window Graphics
These cover a wide range of custom window graphic designs printed on various films. This allows for anything from full-window vinyl to subtle decorative elements. These are highly customisable, meaning you can design how you like, and they offer great brand showcasing and storytelling.
Vinyl Cut Graphics
Made from coloured vinyl that’s cut into specific shapes, logos or text, this window vinyl offers a clean, sharp finish. You might find these displayed as window graphics for business names, opening hours, or directional signage.
Our Window Manifestation Products
Window manifestations are mostly used for safety and privacy in commercial spaces and ensure the glass is visible to prevent accidents. But these can be creatively designed to complement branding. While you can find all of our window graphics can be used as manifestations, we also offer the below:
Frosted Window Vinyl
Also called LavaFrost, it gives a sandblasted or etched look, which provides privacy while still allowing light through. Our premium frosted window vinyl offers a stylish look and distinctive textured finish and is great to use for privacy in offices, staff areas, or partitions.
Decorative Window Films
These can add style to any glass surface while fulfilling safety requirements. Decorative films are more for design than anything else and can be customised with a variety of textures, patterns, and finishes. You’ll most often see geometric designs, gradients, or custom motifs.
Safety Window Manifestation
Safety manifestations are often window graphics to make the glass more visible. If you have transparent glass, these are frequently required as part of building regulations and usually consist of marketing such as forms, squares, brands or custom shapes applied to large panes of glass.
