What Is 3M FASARA Mat (SH2EMMA)?

FASARA Mat is a 5-mil self-adhesive PET decorative film made by 3M Japan. The visual effect is a uniform, opaque-looking matte. From a few feet away the glass reads as fully etched or sandblasted - no shapes, no movement, no shadows visible through it. Get within 18 inches and you can detect about 65 percent visible light transmission, but the film completely scatters that light so you cannot resolve faces, body silhouettes, or text. Factory product code: SH2EMMA. Width 1270mm (50 inches). Standard roll length 30 meters (98 feet). UV blocker baked into the film blocks 99 percent of UV-A and UV-B. 12-year vertical interior warranty from 3M Commercial Graphics.

Where Mat Makes the Most Sense

Medical & dental offices: Exam-room glass partitions, lab doors, X-ray suite windows, front-desk side panels. HIPAA opacity at a fraction of sandblasted-glass cost.
Executive conference rooms: Glass-walled meeting rooms - 8x10 ft pane installs in 90 minutes.
Yoga / wellness studios: Scatters light beautifully - diffused daylight without showing the street.
Shower glass doors: Standard frameless shower to frosted look. $250-$450 per door.
Primary bedroom suites: Bathroom-to-bedroom glass partitions or street-facing bedroom windows.
