Smart film PDLC, technology and functionality in transparency
The switchable PDLC film is the result of years of research and development, supported by modern production machinery and advanced quality control equipment Innoptec® uses state-of-the-art equipment to test performance and material combinations in advance, ensuring that each film is perfectly suited to your needs.
Over the years Innoptec® has developed two switchable PDLC film models. LPF intended for glass lamination, Click-LPF intended for self-adhesive application.
- Optimisation of space
- Diffuse and comfortable brightness: privacy without walls letting natural light through
- Shielding sunlight and reflections with low energy consumption for cooling in summer
Film for glass lamination
LPF films are supplied cut to size and with electrical contacts applied, in sheets up to 2.0 metres wide and lengths that can even exceed 3 metres.
If the customer has sufficient know-how to enable independent application of the electrodes, Innoptec® can also supply LPF films in rolls of up to 30 metres in standard widths of 1.2 metres, 1.5 metres, 1.8 metres and 2.0 metres.
Achieving high final optical qualities, particularly for the product intended for glass lamination, requires equal attention to quality in all subsequent stages of switchable film production with PDLC technology.
Innoptec®, thanks to its 20 years of experience and its pilot laboratory equipment, is able to reproduce on an industrial pilot scale the procedures used by glass manufacturers and test adhesives, sealants, silicones and other materials chosen for the final installation phase.
The customer service provided by Innoptec® enables the entire supply chain to avoid many mistakes, as well as the resulting economic damage.

Self-adhesive film
Switchable Click-LPF film by Innoptec® self-adhesive
Not only on glass, but also on transparent sheets such as polycarbonate, polyacrylate, PET and polystyrene
The film consists of an electro-optical liquid crystal film that can be dry-applied to glass or other transparent surfaces. The Click-LPF film is removable without leaving any residue on surfaces.
This is a product whose application process is simpler, but requires the right dexterity. It is suitable for even small applications.
General features
Standard film widths: 1.2 metres, 1.5 metres, 1.8 metres (grey version up to 1.5 metres).
Standard formats: Rectangular sheets obtained by laser cutting, according to the dimensions requested by the customer. Innoptec® can also supply formats other than rectangular, the quotation for these formats is to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
Cutting and customisation: The possibility of cutting curved shapes, pre-cutting the electrode strip, applying electrodes to positions required by the customer from a range of standard combinations.
Power supply: Click-LPF film is supplied at 45 or 60Vac/50Hz by a transformer. Different solutions are available for the power supply of the LPF film (remote control - dimmer - etc.).
Colours: FILM is available in ice and pastel grey. Grey is available on request.

Switchable PDLC films are innovative materials that add functionality to glass
and other transparent surfaces: new applications for the management of light
and space, capable of bringing glass from the high transparency of the 'on'
state to the bright and versatile translucence of the 'off' state.
