Solar shades are a type of window treatment that protects the inside of the building. The sunlight’s rays are reflected instead of penetrating through the window, and the solar screens also actively absorb heat from the outside. Solar shades are a popular choice of window coverings because they offer many benefits that can help you save time, money and energy.
Solar shades:
- Can reduce energy costs by at least 15%
- Reduces glare to improve productivity and comfort
- Provides increased privacy while allowing light to pass
- Are made with UV resistant, flame retardant and antimicrobial materials
- Offer select styles with 100% recyclable, biodegradable materials that can have a 20-year life span, generating long-term savings
- Can contribute toward LEEF project points for sustainability
- Can be motorized or manual
