Textile Screens Product Benefits

ROMA Textile Screens, also knownas vertical awnings, combine functionality and design at the highest level. They offer far more advantages than traditional sun protection—from hail resistance and wind stability to customized privacy, smart ease of use, and “Made in Germany” quality. Discover all the benefits of our Textile Screens at a glance.

Heat and sun protection with Textile Screens

ROMA Textile Screens provide effective heat protection while still allowing enough natural light to create a natural atmosphere in your rooms without blocking the view outside . Textile Screens also offer the advantages of weather resistance, durability, and virtually no maintenance.

Furthermore, the weather-resistant fabrics reliably protect your houseplants, books, pictures, and furniture from fading due to excessive sunlight. ROMA Textile Screens provide sun protection and filter up to 98% of UV radiation—regardless of the sun’s position—without blocking out natural light.

Textile sun protection also excels when it comes to summer heat protection: The special fabric structure effectively reflects sunlight and prevents indoor spaces from heating up. This helps reduce cooling costs.

Discreetly mounted on the patio structure, Textile Screens blend harmoniously into the overall design and enhance the visual appeal of your outdoor spaces. During cooler evenings, they provide effective protection against drafts and gusts of wind. Optionally, an integrated PVC viewing window can be installed, which preserves an unobstructed view of the garden even when the system is closed.

Shading of large windows and surfaces

Whether it’s a new construction or a renovation—modern living relies on large windows and light-filled rooms. But even in our temperate latitudes, sunlight can pose a challenge. The ROMA zipSCREEN.2 offers an elegant and reliable shading solution for window areas up to 18 m² —depending on the size of the panels and the installation situation.

Even with expansive glass surfaces and all-glass corners, you don’t have to sacrifice the view. Depending on the color you choose, the fabrics used reflect a large portion of the heat radiation before it even reaches the window, while still maintaining a clear view of the outdoors. This allows you to enjoy a comfortable indoor climate thanks to Textile Screens and the natural changing of the seasons.

Your home is an expression of your personal style— and that goes for the color scheme, too. With the ROMA color collection, you have a wide range of options for customizing Textile Screens, Roller Shutters, and External Venetian Blinds exactly as you wish—and even beyond your expectations. The choice of fabric type and ROMA color significantly influences the transparency and light transmission of your Textile Screen. That’s why we recommend a personal consultation with a ROMA Distributor near you. There, you’ll receive original samples and learn how colors and materials affect the interplay of light and shadow.

Textile Screens advantage: privacy protection for your home

Textile Screens solve the classic dilemma: Either you have natural light —or you have privacy. With vertical awnings, you can find the perfect balance between privacy and transparency. Decide for yourself how much visibility you want. Depending on the fabric you choose, you’ll have a clear view of the outside while preventing anyone from seeing in.

The principle: Dark fabrics with a high openness factor offer maximum transparency to the outside but prevent people from seeing in—even in direct sunlight. Light-colored fabrics with a low openness factor, on the other hand, softly diffuse the light and create a pleasantly subdued atmosphere in the room. The ROMA Fabric Finder—or your local ROMA Distributor with actual fabric samples—can help you determine which fabric is right for your living situation.

Darkening through Textile Screens

Sometimes you just want it to be dark—whether it’s for the kids’ afternoon nap, a restful night’s sleep in the summer, or a home-theater night in the living room. ROMA Textile Screens can reduce the amount of light passing through the fabrics to a minimum—creating a noticeably subdued lighting atmosphere in the room. Unlike interior blackout blinds, they work right in front of the glass: Heat stays outside, the room doesn’t heat up unnecessarily, and daylight is significantly reduced.
