Comfort all year round – how to combine windows with sunshades?

HANDBOOK

It is best to plan the selection of sunshades at the window design stage, rather than only after construction has been completed. Only then can the installation method, guides, control system and appearance of the façade be properly coordinated. In practice, the aim is for the sun protection systems and windows to form a cohesive whole: improving thermal comfort, helping to control the amount of light and not disrupting the proportions of the façade. Alongside aluminium windows, Aluprof’s range includes a wide selection of sunshades, such as roller shutters, screens and façade blinds, allowing the entire glazed area to be treated as a single, well-coordinated element of the house.
