At Rosseni we transform the facades of your buildings into architectural masterpieces.
Solar shading has now become a fundamental element in modern construction, essential to ensure not only the comfort of internal environments, but also an efficient use of energy and a reduced environmental impact. In fact, their role in protecting buildings from overheating and in the fight against global warming, reducing the use of highly energy-intensive air conditioning systems, is indispensable. With the aim of highlighting the environmental and economic advantages of building shading solutions, on 21 March 2023 the ES-SO (European Solar Shading Organisation) launched the first “Global Shading Day”, a world day dedicated to solar shading and the benefits generated for the building.
The main benefits of installing solar screens on the external facades of a building include:
Thermal control
Solar screens reduce the accumulation of heat inside the rooms, helping to maintain more comfortable temperatures without the excessive use of cooling systems.
Energy savings
Solar screens also reduce dependence on heating and cooling systems, allowing for significant energy savings (and on bills).
UV protection
Solar screens protect interiors from the harmful effects of UV rays, while also preserving furnishings, floors and coverings from yellowing and deterioration.
Visual comfort
Solar screens reduce glare and reflection of sunlight, ensuring a more comfortable environment for those who live in these spaces.
Reducing environmental impact
By reducing the energy consumption of buildings, solar shading helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions and the overall environmental impact of construction.
Solar shading can take on different shapes and types, each with specific characteristics to adapt to the needs of the building and the context:
Sunshades (folding and knee-shaped)
They can be installed externally to block the sun’s rays before they reach the windows, thus reducing overheating of internal environments.
Curtains
They are versatile and flexible solutions, ideal for regulating the amount of light and heat that enters internal environments.
Shutters
They offer precise control of light and allow good ventilation of the rooms when partially open.
Internal shading
Like roller blinds or Venetian blinds, they allow you to control the incoming light and heat, directly from inside the buildings.
Given the accelerating pace of climate change, implementing solar shading standards in buildings is a key step towards promoting passive cooling in buildings. By integrating solar shading systems into your home, warehouse or office, you can efficiently and intelligently regulate both heat and light, which has a positive impact on energy efficiency and window insulation. This approach not only allows for optimal control of natural light, but also promotes the comfort of those who live in these spaces.
