1. External Textile Screen
Advantages
Application: Suitable not only for shading windows and doors but also for enclosing terraces, balconies, and pergolas.
Heat Retention Efficiency: External screen shades can block up to 75-80% of solar heat, preventing indoor overheating in the summer.
Excellent Room Darkening: They provide outstanding blackout performance using blackout fabric and a zipper system embedded in guides, effectively blocking light.
UV Protection: These shades protect against UV rays, which helps prevent interior furnishings from fading.
Reduced Cooling Costs: By preventing room overheating, they lower the need for air conditioning, leading to energy savings.
Aesthetic Flexibility: Available in various colors and materials, allowing coordination with your home's exterior design.
Insect Protection: ZIP screen systems feature fabric secured in guides, preventing insects from entering the space when the shade is lowered.
Installation
External screen shades offer two installation options:
Plaster embedded system: The box is built into the wall for a minimalist appearance.
Top mounted system: The shade is mounted with a visible casing, available in square or round shapes and powder-coated in any RAL color.
Operation
Screen shades can be operated in three different ways, depending on your needs and preferences:
Manual Operation: A monocommand rod allows for easy raising or lowering with simple rotary movements.
Electric Operation with a Switch: A switch enables effortless light control with a single press.
Remote-Controlled Electric Operation: Built-in motors equipped with sensors automatically detect obstacles and stop the movement of the shades, enhancing safety.
2. Internal Screen Roller
Advantages
Decorative Appeal: Available in numerous colors, transparencies, and patterns, making them an integral part of interior decor.
Easy Maintenance: Since internal roller shades are not exposed to external elements, they are easier to clean and maintain.
Budget-Friendly: Internal roller shades are typically more affordable compared to external screen shades.
Installation
Internal screen roller can be easily installed in several ways:
Recessed – in a cascade or a pre-prepared recessed opening.
On the Wall
On the Ceiling
Operation
Screen roller shades offer different control options tailored to your needs:
Manual Operation: Simply pull the chain to raise or lower the shades.
Electric Operation with a Switch: A switch allows easy light control with a single press.
Remote-Controlled Electric Operation: This offers maximum convenience, allowing you to adjust lighting effortlessly from the comfort of your sofa.
Fabric Options
Both external and internal screen shades are available in various fabrics depending on transparency level and functionality:
Transparent Fabrics: Allow natural light to enter the space while maintaining an outdoor view.
Dim-Out Fabrics: Reduce light levels more effectively than transparent fabrics.
Blackout Fabrics: Completely block light, providing full room darkening.
How to Decide?
Determine Your Needs: If you need effective protection against sunlight and overheating, external screen shades are the better choice. If you want to control light and enhance privacy indoors, internal screen roller shades are more suitable.
Consider Your Budget: External screen shades are usually more expensive but offer higher energy efficiency.
Think About Combining Both: In some cases, a combination of external and internal screen shades is the optimal solution for functionality and aesthetics. In such cases, internal screen roller shades are typically transparent, allowing natural daylight while reducing glare. External screen shades, on the other hand, are often dim-out or blackout, providing complete darkness during the day when needed and increased privacy at night.
By combining these solutions, you achieve the best balance between light control, privacy, and energy efficiency, ensuring greater comfort in your home or commercial space.
