Support for your project specification

We offer expert guidance when it comes to the design and specification of solar shading control solutions for commercial building projects.

Your expert partner - from day one

Early consideration on the dynamic solar shading solution is essential for:

  • Creating the most effective long-term solution
  • Maximizing the comfort and well-being of occupants and the harvesting of natural daylight
  • Reducing the energy consumption in the building

We are committed to creating the ideal indoor environment in today's buildings, to ensure the health and well-being of its occupants and to reduce energy consumption and thus sustainability.

Because we offer the complete solution, from the design and development of the motors and intelligent controls through to installation, commissioning and maintenance, we offer a unique insight and can be a partner at every stage of the project.

Meeting the unique needs of your project

Areas where we can support you for specification include:

  • Expert insight into dynamic solar shading solutions depending on the specific context of your project
  • Education of control technologies for solar shading
  • Planning and solution design
  • Schematic drawings and system overview

In our download section you will find a library of datasheets, commercial brochures and drawings to support your specification.

Finding the right solution for you

When you are specifying the solution for your project, it can be useful to have a specialist partner to help guide you through the options and help with the major decisions. Through our local expert teams, we can provide this hands-on guidance so don’t hesitate to call one of our team for a discussion.

There are some important areas to consider at the start – such as; the physical characteristics of the building and its surroundings, the functions required in the building, whether BMS integration is required.

Early questions to consider when choosing your solution

It may help to think about some of the typical questions our team may ask you to ensure we advise you on the best solution. 

You may have other questions so give a member of our team a call and they can steer you through.

  • What is the orientation of the facades? And will shadows be cast from nearby structures or natural surroundings?
  • Is it likely to be a stand-alone control system or is integration with a BMS required?
  • Will the building continue to be developed?
  • Is the building occupied by one company or several different tenants?
  • What specific objectives are you looking to satisfy – energy saving, security, well-being improvement?
  • Is there a requirement for the control of the shading by individual occupants?
  • Is remote access from supplier or facility manager required for remote maintenance or monitoring?

Building simulation software

Reliable, accurate and easy simulation with ESBO (Early Stage Building Optimization).

ESBO is the first building simulation software fully endorsed by ES-SO and based on the calculation engine in IDA ICE - the market leading tool for simulation of energy and indoor climate in northern Europe. With ESBO the use of dynamic solar shading can be simulated according to the established ISO 15099.

BIM

A catalogue of Building Information Modelling (BIM) objects is available in our download section. There you can find 3D drawings of our building control products. The files are in .rfa format (RFA family, Autodesk Revit) and can be loaded into your CAD project (Autodesk Revit).
