Whilst Brise Soleil typically provides a shade to sunlight it can also be inversed to deflect light into a building. For example on a car park, a 45° Brise Soleil blade can take light from the edge of the building and direct it onto the floors, and vise versa lights from glaring car headlights can be redirected away from any facing windows of buildings adjacent.

Economical

Solar shading can help to minimise heat build up. It reduces the need for air-conditioning and thereby conserves energy. It improves the working environment whilst at the same time lowering bills.

Comfort

For a working building such as an office block, school or hospital, the optimum summer time working temperature should be approximately 24/30°C. During the hotter summer months solar radiation can increase internal temperatures to as high as 35/40°C. Solar Shading can reduce this. In the cooler months solar shading provides an effective screen from solar glare when the sun angle is lower and tends to shine directly through windows.
