As residents of Austin, we are privileged to enjoy the beauty of our thriving environment, which includes a diverse bird population. However, the risk of bird strikes against windows is a significant concern. Each year in the United States, up to 1 billion birds lose their lives due to window collisions. The use of bird-safe window films, such as those from Solyx and Bird Divert, emerges as an essential strategy to mitigate these fatal incidents.

Understanding Bird Strike Realities in Austin

In bustling urban spaces and tranquil residential areas alike, birds often cannot perceive clear and reflective glass, leading to fatal strikes. Austin’s geographical location places it on various bird migration paths, making the city a critical area for implementing preventive measures.

How Solyx and Bird Divert Films Make a Difference

Products from Solyx and Bird Divert are crafted with bird safety in mind, featuring patterns that are visible to birds. These patterns help our feathered friends identify windows as barriers, effectively reducing the likelihood of collisions.

  • Solyx Bird Safety Films provide a durable, translucent barrier with patterned designs that alert birds to the presence of glass.
  • Bird Divert films utilize advanced technology to reflect ultraviolet light, which is visible to birds but not to humans, ensuring minimal disruption to our views and aesthetics.
  • Both products offer UV protection, lowering the risk of fading furniture and also providing energy efficiency benefits by moderating the temperature inside buildings.
  • The films are easy to install and maintain, making them a practical choice for both residential and commercial properties.
  • By choosing these films, property owners in Austin can contribute to conservation efforts, making our city safer for the local wildlife.
  • These films not only prevent bird strikes but also enhance the durability of windows and increase privacy without compromising on light.
  • Installation by professionals ensures maximum effectiveness and maintains the integrity of the film and glass.
  • Solyx and Bird Divert offer warranties that guarantee the quality and longevity of their products, providing peace of mind for users.
