Solar Gard’s UK news index dates its four-level Clearshield WPF product update to April 13, 2026. The accompanying announcement described an exterior solar-control film using a flexible thermoplastic polyurethane, or TPU, layer.

The company presented the four performance levels as choices across appearance and solar control. It also promoted flexibility for different shapes and surfaces. These are manufacturer descriptions, not results of TintNews installation or optical testing.

The notice specifically told dealers and users to check local regulations before applying even the clear product to a windshield. It did not provide a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction approval list. The regional update establishes a dated range announcement, rather than proving the product first became available worldwide that April.
