What is the difference between SunTek and XPEL?

Both are self-healing TPU PPF. SunTek has a 12-year warranty (vs XPEL's 10) and is typically 5-15% cheaper for the same coverage. XPEL has the larger US dealer network and proprietary DAP cutting software (no hand-trimming on paint). For most customers it comes down to which Authorized Dealer is closer.

Is SunTek the same as Llumar?

They share a parent company (Eastman Chemical) and use related TPU film technology, but they are sold under separate dealer programs and warranty paperwork. Llumar is more commonly seen on the window film side; SunTek is better established in the PPF segment.

About SunTek

SunTek is part of Eastman Chemical Company, the same parent that owns Llumar window film. SunTek's automotive products are manufactured in Martinsville, Virginia and have been on the market since the early 1990s. The brand is known for its installer-friendly PPF that lays down with minimal stretching and excellent optical clarity.

SunTek's flagship clear PPF, the Reaction series, uses a self-healing TPU topcoat with one of the longest manufacturer warranties in the industry — 12 years against yellowing, cracking, bubbling and delamination. The Reaction film is favored by installers for its forgiving install characteristics and by customers for its consistently flat optical clarity over time.

SunTek also manufactures CIR (Carbon Infrared Rejection) automotive window film, a premium nano-ceramic tint with high IR heat rejection. SunTek runs a single-tier Authorized Dealer program — all dealers in the US carry the same warranty backing.
