Why electric sun shading is the right choice
Exterior sun protection with electric controls offers numerous advantages over manual systems. With just the push of a button, individual windows or entire rooms can be darkened and adjusted to the current position of the sun—without any tedious cranking or pulling. Especially in buildings with expansive glazing and many windows, this simple control system provides significantly greater comfort.
In addition, electric sun protection systems can help reduce energy costs. This may sound counterintuitive to many, but it’s a proven benefit: By closing automatically, the sun protection effectively keeps heat out in the summer. This allows you to cool rooms without air conditioning and save energy. In the winter, on the other hand, well-insulated electric sun protection can help you save on heating costs —automated systems, in particular, ensure smart energy management all year round.

Energy self-sufficient sun shading: electric systems with solar drive

The battery is designed to last for several days without direct sunlight . This ensures your sun protection system remains operational at all times —energy-self-sufficient and without the need for an additional power connection.
