A retrofitted zipSCREEN offers numerous advantages - technical, aesthetic and functional. Unlike solar shading installed on the inside, a zipSCREEN works on the outside of the window. This intercepts solar radiation before it hits the glass pane - effectively preventing the interior from overheating.
ROMA Textile Screens impress with their robust workmanship, wide range of colors and fabrics as well as the innovative zip technology, which holds the fabric securely in the guide rail at the side. This keeps the fabric tensioned even in windy conditions - for trouble-free operation and clear lines on the façade.
The zipSCREEN retrofit is suitable for single and multi-family homes as well as for office or commercial buildings. It is particularly recommended in the following cases:
Large glass surfaces, e.g. floor-to-ceiling windows or sliding doors
South or west-facing facades that are heavily exposed to the sun
Home offices and computer workstations for glare protection at the workplace
Conservatories or extensions that heat up a lot
Thanks to their external installation and minimalist design, ROMA zipSCREENs blend harmoniously into any architecture - from classic to modern.
