VEROSOL sun control blinds

Introduction Metallised blinds can provide the ideal solution to solar control problems in commercial buildings and at home by its unique and colour independent combination of glare, heat control and view through. Significant energy savings and productivity gains can be achieved sustainable product. Use of high performance blinds can allow for reduction in capital costs of cooling plant and special glazing. Important indications for a good solar protection are: High reflection Openness factor Low light transmission (only slightly higher than openness factor) On sunlit facades light transmission <7%

Problems with common screen rollers Glare Heat gain No outside VIEW 1. Glare Light fabrics reduce heat gain but create glare. Too much light for a visual task. High contrasts caused by badly distributed light. Light= heat when it hits a solid object Results in eyestrain which impacts on productivity.

Problems with common screen rollers Glare Heat gain No outside VIEW 2. Heat gain Dark colour fabrics reduce glare but increase heat gain When there is too much heat radiation - productivity drops immediately. Cooling costs and related carbon emissions increase, due to unwanted heat gain.

Problems with common screen rollers Glare Heat gain No outside VIEW 3. No outside VIEW Dense weave fabrics reduce natural daylight and prevent an outside view. Daylight and visual contact with the outside is essential for peoples wellbeing. Increases the need for artificial light resulting in higher energy costs and heat gain.

Metallised fabric & Verosol Why metallised fabric? Aluminum doesn t allow light through It has excellent reflection properties Can be applied in very thin layers Leaves pores open Shading properties are colour independent It has a neutral colour It has excellent colour rendering Why Verosol? Reduces bright light Retains a perfect view Reflects excess heat Thermal comfort Fire-retardant Reflective metallised fabric = energy saving

Green labels & certificates Different types of green labels and certificates are used on global and national level Green labels and certificates can be given on: Fabrics (like Öko-Tex, Greenguard) Production facilities (like ISO 14001, Öko-Tex 1000) Buildings in which our fabrics are used (like LEED, BREEAM, Green Star) Complete product life cycle of the end-product (like GECA and Cradleto-Cradle)
