See-through graphics are most commonly produced on large format printers using solvent inkjet or uv print technology. Material comes on rolls typically up to 1.53m wide and 50m long. The material has an adhesive back which allows it to be fitted to the exterior of windows. Several manufacturers produce different grades of one-way-vision film.
The thicker window films known as safety and security window film are designed to perform under extreme conditions, and as such there are specific standard criteria these films should meet, such as American standards ANSI Z.97, CPSC 16 CFR 1201, Cat II (400 ft-lb), and the British Standards BS 6206 (Class A, B, C).
