Each year, up to 42 million birds die in Canada from collisions with glass buildings, particularly during migration. Austrian company BirdShades has developed a UV-active window film that is invisible to humans but visible to birds, dramatically reducing strikes.
Now, Guelph-based Tekton Performance Films is bringing this innovation to North America.

The solution aligns with sustainability efforts while preserving architectural aesthetics, offering a significant advancement in wildlife conservation and modern design.
