Technical data

The ultra-fine layer of aluminium on a screen fabric dramatically improves the solar energy performance, whilst demonstrating excellent view through. Besides, SilverScreen adds a contemporary style to architectural design on the interior as well as on the exterior of the building; functional meets decorative.

In the graphs below, the mayor differences between SilverScreen and common screen are displayed clearly.

SilverScreen performances

The visual glare and heat gain properties of common screens depend on the colour of the screen. With SilverScreen, thanks to the aluminium layer on the reverse side, these properties are practically independent of the colour of the screen. Furthermore, SilverScreen provides a good visual contact to the outside world.

Table below shows performances of the white, black and a mid grey. Other SilverScreen colours will show similar results.

According to the European performance rating of shading products, EN 14501, the SilverScreen scores are:

Glare control: 3 (good effect)
View through: 2 (moderate effect)
g-value: 3 (good effect) – 4 (very good effect) are achievable

Also with respect to the U-value, very good effects can be realised.
