If you’ve ever opened your door at Walmart Supercenter in Indiana, PA after a July grocery run, you know factory glass does nothing against cabin heat.
Annual PennDOT stats show Indiana County now logs 20 % more 90 °F days than a decade ago. Combine that with snow-white winter glare bouncing off US-119, and it’s clear: top-tier window tint isn’t a luxury—it’s essential protection for comfort, health, and resale.
At Ceramic Pro Indiana County in Josephine, we install Ceramic Pro® Carbon IR and Ceramic IR films that:
Installed once, warranted for life, and 100 % metal-free so GPS, 5 G, and EZ-Pass signals stay strong.

Untinted glass passes IR heat and UV-A rays almost unfiltered. Ceramic nanoparticles suspended in our film act as IR mirrors—reflecting heat while letting safe light through.
| Spectrum | Untinted Glass | Ceramic IR Film |
|---|---|---|
| UV Rejection | ~45 % | 99+ % |
| Total Solar Energy Rejected (TSER) | ~20 % | Up to 66 % |
| IR Heat Rejection (950 nm) | ~8 % | Up to 96 % |
| Signal Interference | None | None |
Lab tested to ASTM D1003 and EN 410 standards.
Real-world impact: Cabin temperatures drop up to 30 °F, and your A/C reaches the set point 40 % faster—saving fuel or EV range on the daily commute up PA-286.
Interior ASTM G154 testing shows dashboards last 3× longer before cracking when protected by Ceramic IR film.

We computer-cut patterns to satisfy Title 75 § 4524(c) and local inspection lanes:
