Glass Protection and Your Budget: Which Material is the Most Cost-Effective?

Protective film and protective board are considered the cheaper options for glass protection. But is this really the case?


Whilst Protectapeel is initially more expensive than protective film and protective board, consider the overall cost of....


- The labour needed for application

- The protection product itself

- Storage & set up costs

- Ancillary materials needed for application

- Wastage

- Damage rates

- Removal and disposal

- Additional cleaning costs



We decided to further investigate, we compared the cost of protecting 5,000m²

of glass with protective film, board and Protectapeel internally.


We have used the wage rate of £25 per hour to represent on-site labour costs and estimated the damage rate of surfaces on-site being 2.5%. We have been objective, and had the calculations independently reviewed by experts in the industry.
