Increase well-being with metallised
textiles
Large windows, a typical feature of contemporary architecture,
can reduce thermal and visual comfort. On sunny days the sun will
cause glare on screens and heats up the interior considerably.
With our collection of metallised roller blind textiles, you can fight
the light and beat the heat, creating the optimal indoor climate.
Thermal comfort
Metallised textiles reduce the need for heating in winter and
cooling in summer, and therefore diminish energy consumption up
to 25%*. The less energy used, the lower the carbon emissions;
contributing to a sustainable future.
Our metallised textiles are independently verified as an equivalent
alternative to outdoor solar shading: in the summer the metallised
textiles reflect sunlight, keeping indoor temperatures from rising
rapidly. In the winter, the aluminium layer acts as an insulator to
reduce heat loss and keep heat inside.
Visual comfort
Metallised textiles create visual comfort by providing control over
glare, whilst maintaining good visual contact with the outside. Our
metallised textiles are finished with an ultra-fine layer of non-
transparent aluminium. This enables a metallised textile to reflect
up to 74% of solar radiation and prevent diffuse light transmission.
In general, an openness factor of only 2-4% combined with a light
transmission of up to 7% eliminates glare and ensures a good view
to the outside. With metallised roller blinds you can block blinding
sunlight, whilst still enjoying the view and plenty of natural
daylight.
