Top Advertising Uses for Rear Projection Film
Looking for a way to break through the noise and get noticed? Rear projection film is one of the most versatile tools in digital signage — transforming any glass surface into a vivid, video-powered display. At SSIDisplays.com, we’ve seen it used everywhere from shopping malls to tour buses, with incredible results.
In this post, we’re highlighting the top advertising uses for rear projection film — with real-world ideas you can deploy today.
1. Retail Storefront Windows
Retailers are using rear projection film to bring their windows to life — especially in high-traffic areas. Instead of static signage, project dynamic video loops, promotions, or product demos directly onto the glass. It’s perfect for after-hours advertising when the store is closed but foot traffic remains high.
