With summer approaching, is window tinting important?

02 Apr 2023

As the summer heat sets in, many people start to think about ways to stay cool while driving. One option that has become increasingly popular over the years is window tinting. Not only does it provide a sleek and stylish look to your vehicle, but it also offers a range of benefits, particularly during hot summer months.

Window tinting in the summer is reducing the amount of heat and protect your car's interior

Window tinting in the summer is reducing the amount of heat and protect your car's interior

Window tinting involves applying a thin film to the windows of your car. The film is typically made of a polyester material that has been coated with a layer of metal, such as aluminum or titanium. This metal layer helps to reflect sunlight and heat away from the car, making it easier to keep the interior cool and comfortable.

One of the primary benefits of window tinting in the summer is reducing the amount of heat that enters your vehicle. When the sun beats down on your car, it can quickly turn into a greenhouse, trapping heat inside and making it uncomfortable to drive. By applying window tinting, you can reduce the amount of heat that enters the car, which can help keep the interior temperature cooler and more comfortable.

Another benefit of window tinting is that it can help protect your car's interior from UV rays. Over time, exposure to the sun's UV rays can cause damage to your car's upholstery, dashboard, and other surfaces. By blocking out some of the sun's harmful rays, window tinting can help prevent fading, cracking, and other types of damage.

Improve the safety and security of your vehicle

Window tinting can also improve the safety and security of your vehicle. By reducing the amount of light that enters your car, it can make it more difficult for potential thieves to see inside. Additionally, if your car is involved in an accident, the tinted windows can help prevent shattered glass from flying into the car and causing injury.

When it comes to window tinting, it's important to check the laws in your state or country. While most areas allow some level of tinting, there may be restrictions on how dark the tint can be and which windows can be tinted. Be sure to research the regulations in your area and choose a reputable window tinting company that adheres to the rules and regulations.

In conclusion, window tinting can be an important investment for anyone looking to stay cool and comfortable while driving in the summer. With its ability to reduce heat and UV rays, improve safety and security, and protect your car's interior, it's no wonder why so many people are turning to window tinting as a solution. So if you're looking to beat the heat this summer, consider window tinting for your vehicle.

The Antera brand back at the summit of light alloy-wheel producers

The wait is over. Today, on the occasion of the 2024 Milan Design Week, the prestigious Antera brand makes its comeback on the global scene with a new collection of light alloy wheels for the automotive industry. The collection will be inaugurated by the brand’s ambassador Roberto Baggio, the footballing legend who, thanks to his successful career and winning mindset, is the perfect embodiment of the Italian brand’s spirit of 'No Compromise'.

The choice of the famous Number 10 of the Italian national team, a radiant example of sporting excellence, perseverance, and generosity, contributes to reinforcing the slogan at the center of the Antera’s new campaign: “Where instinct meets genius, the myth becomes legend”. Indeed, Roberto Baggio, the winner of the 1993 Ballon d’Or and a playmaker with refined technique and unique style, has proven that the most important goals, as regards both sport and everyday life, are achieved through commitment and quality which does not take shortcuts, but rather prizes dedication, courage, and vision. These are the same ingredients of the ‘No Compromise’ philosophy which G.M.P. Group, a company specialized in the global design and production of alloy wheels, intends to employ to bring the historic Panther brand back to its former glory.

Marco Mancin, Head of G.M.P. Group, states: “Originally, the founder Marco Muzzarelli’s vision guided the Antera brand via the principle of ‘No Compromise’, creating a place where dreams and reality could come together and desire be turned into creation. This led to prestigious and invaluable products which reached across space and time to achieve the most authentic expression of excellence. Today, with the same winning mindset and an important five-year plan, we are writing a new page in Antera’s history that will bring the brand back to the Mt. Olympus of light alloy-wheel producers.”

Marco Finazzi, Chief Commercial Officer: “We have always been innovators and visionaries in our field, and we aim to restore luster to the Brand through the development of innovation, identification, and a process of concrete internationalization. One thing that will never change is our loyalty to the fundamental values which forged the brand’s world-renowned identity, and the determination to pursue our business vision whatever the challenges that emerge along the way. And we are sure other companies of the group will want to share a common path towards growth and development in their fields, always relying on the philosophy of ‘No Compromise’. With this frame of mind, we want to challenge the status quo in order to offer unconventional products that are able to anticipate the needs of an exclusive clientele.
