Sun Filtering Shades
Solar Screen Shades Moderate Heat, Glare and Keep Your View by Ray Bork
Solar Shades or Sun Screens are fantastic at reducing energy costs without sacrificing style. sun Shades are an ingenious mix of sheer beauty and useful technology providing visibility of the out-of-doors while protecting valuable furnishings from detrimental UV rays indoors.
They provide a place where you can live and react easily by reducing glare and protecting your furnishings without creating that “closed in” a state of mind. solar Screen Shades filter the sun, providing superior visibility while blocking up to 99% of the glare and detrimental UV rays.
Fabric density and color determine the amount of UV and glare protection, as snugly as the accuracy of view. Light-colored fabrics offer more heat minimization and diffuse interior light. Dark fabrics provide more glare minimization and a better view through.
Sun Screen Shades can be created with an ultrafine layer of aluminum on the back side of the fabric. This dramatically increases the solar screens performance and still provides highest view through. Shades manufactured with the Persona program allows you to personalize your window shades with your collection of any mix of colors, patterns and textures. You can even offer your shades created with your own made-to-order graphic.
They can come in roller shade, roman shade, Stationary panel, and sliding panel type sun Screens, with a many of options and opacity ranging from markedly sheer to semi-sheer, the fabrics in sun Screens can enhance your decor while allowing you to have the benefit or use of your surroundings. For a shade that is as beneficial and safe as it is stylish, solar Screen Shades can come with motorization capabilities.
sun Shades are incredibly effective for the reduction of heat and glare and can be constructed for either indoor or outdoor applications. They work like sunglasses for your windows, accurate whenever you want to minimize the sun but maximize your view.
