According to a technical report released by the International Window Film Association in July 2026
🪟 Product Technology Update: Electrochromic Technology
Shenzhen JiSu Smart Tech has recently launched a new generation of black electrochromic smart film. Compared to traditional PDLC (Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal) film, it offers the following advantages:
Displays a pure black appearance with high opacity when powered off, providing enhanced privacy protection;
Enables stepless dimming from fully transparent to dark when powered on, rather than a simple toggle between transparent and opaque states;
Improved optical performance: 99% UV rejection and over 85% infrared rejection;
Faster response speed: state-switching time reduced to under 0.05 seconds.
🌍 Market Trends: Continued Expansion of Application Scenarios
Construction Sector:
The global high-end commercial building industry is increasingly adopting smart film on a large scale to replace traditional curtains. According to the latest data from July, order volumes for smart film in construction rose by 57% year-on-year.
Representative Case: A green office building project in Dubai, UAE, achieved a 32% reduction in air-conditioning energy consumption after installing smart film, while also lowering costs associated with curtain cleaning and maintenance.
📈 Industry Forecast: The Convergence of AI and IoT
Industry analysts predict that the global smart film market will reach $2.8 billion by 2026, maintaining an annual growth rate of approximately 33%.
Future development trends include:
Integration with smart home systems for automatic light adjustment
Photovoltaic smart films with integrated solar power generation capabilities
Lower-cost flexible smart film technology suitable for curved glass applications
🏗️ Applications in Construction: A Boom in the Retrofitting Market
Driven by the growing global demand for retrofitting existing buildings, self-adhesive PDLC smart film has emerged as a top-trending product:
Easy Installation: No need to remove existing glass doors or windows; simply apply the film directly to achieve a privacy glass effect.
Market Demand: Global order volumes have surged by 57% year-over-year, with primary applications including office partitions, hospital privacy solutions, hotel room renovations, villas, and sunrooms.
🏗️ Architectural Applications: A Standard for European Zero-Energy Buildings
The EU is implementing new energy-efficiency standards for buildings starting July 1, 2026, mandating that all newly constructed public buildings install smart glass systems with shading capabilities. This has directly driven explosive growth for smart film in the European market:
Germany: The renovation project for Berlin’s new City Hall utilizes black electrochromic smart film throughout, with projected annual air-conditioning energy savings of 22%.
France: A high-end residential project in Paris integrates smart film with smart home systems, allowing for automatic transparency adjustments based on sunlight intensity.
UK: Super-tall buildings in London’s financial district have begun adopting flexible smart film, solving shading and privacy challenges associated with curved glass.
🌍 Market Trends: Asia Emerges as a Key Production Hub
As the technology matures, the smart film industry is shifting toward Asia:
