Window film supplied and installed in Sukkur by Protek Devices, authorized for 3M, TotalGard and Reflectiv since 2000. Heat, safety and privacy film, specified for Sukkur's climate.
Sukkur sits on the Indus in one of the hottest parts of the country, where summer temperatures routinely reach the high forties and the barrage keeps the city working through it.
Commercial and institutional glazing here has a genuine performance brief rather than a cosmetic one. This is the top of the range doing what it was designed for.
Protek Devices installs 3M, TotalGard and Reflectiv window film in Sukkur. Roughly seven hours from Lahore, on the Indus in upper Sindh. Commercial work starts with an on-site survey; homes are usually filmed in a single visit.
Some of the hottest inhabited ground on earth. Jacobabad passes 50°C most summers and the belt through Sukkur, Larkana, Multan, Bahawalpur and Rahim Yar Khan is not far behind. The heat is dry, relentless, and arrives as direct solar load on every west- and south-facing pane.
This is where the top of the range earns its price. External silver and high-rejection ceramic films, applied to the outside face where the glass allows, stop the energy before it crosses the pane rather than after. A light interior film is not a serious answer to a west facade here.
Thermal stress is a genuine risk at these temperatures, particularly on tinted or toughened glass and on panes that are partly shaded. Which side the film goes on is a survey decision, not a preference.

We work throughout Pakistan, and the portfolio on this site lags the work — no Sukkur install is written up yet. We would rather say that than show you someone else's building and imply it was ours.
We fit film throughout the city, including Military Road, Barrage Colony, Minara Road and Airport Road. Nowhere is off the list; these are simply the areas we are asked for most.
The best films we fit reject around eighty per cent of total solar energy and up to ninety-seven per cent of the infrared specifically. That is a genuine and measurable difference in a room, but it is a reduction, not air conditioning — film lowers the load your cooling has to fight.
Often not. Above about 45°C the useful move is to stop the energy before it crosses the glass, which means an external silver or high-rejection ceramic film on the outside face where the glazing allows. A light interior film on a west facade here will disappoint you.
Thermal stress is a real risk at these temperatures, particularly on glass that is already tinted or toughened, and on panes that are partly shaded through the day. It is exactly why the survey establishes the glass type and which face the film goes on. Getting that wrong is how panes break.
