SUN SHADING SYSTEMS

Daylight gives a room its quality, until it turns into glare and heat. Effective sun shading responds to changing conditions throughout the day, keeps glare out and occupants comfortable, and by lowering cooling loads it can support the building's energy performance. From large louvre blades on the façade to blinds concealed in the window, you will find the right solution in our range

01Performance

Performance & features

Orientation, wind exposure, daylight requirements and control strategy vary from one façade to the next. Our range covers external and integrated shading with tested wind resistance and defined control options, so the selection follows the conditions of the specific façade. By reducing solar heat gain, our systems lower cooling loads and can support the building's energy performance.
