1. What Is the Bird Friendly Market?
The Bird Friendly Market comprises architectural materials and urban planning services designed to prevent avian collisions with glass building facades. These solutions utilize ultraviolet patterned glazing and specialized window films that are visible to birds while remaining transparent to humans. Municipal planners and commercial developers utilize these treatments to satisfy local environmental ordinances and achieve green building certification credits. The scope covers fritted glass manufacturing and collision deterrence films but excludes general architectural window tinting lacking avian visibility properties.
