Colt’s solar shading and daylight optimisation systems provide good quality natural daylight without solar glare, so as to improve internal conditions and reduce energy costs.
The benefits of solar shading systems
Solar shading systems eliminate excessive glare and reduce solar heat gains in the summer. In this instance, during the hotter months of the year, the building is protected against overheating by adjustable heat reflecting louvers, which are oriented according to the position of the sun. Radiation from the sun is partially absorbed and reflected by the louvers, which reduces heat gains within the building.
