UV protection:

 Healthy provider of shade

The sun is not only a giver of life and a source of vitamins, it can also be a threatening force. Studies of the World Health Organization (WHO) have estimated that cases of skin disease triple due to the damaging effects of UV rays. Intensive protection and preventive measures against UV radiation can protect against skin damage.

The sun shading factor of WAREMA awning designs is an indicator of how much longer skin can be exposed to sunlight without burning when shielded by the awning. The safe sun exposure time can be increased 80-fold by the awning fabric.

Light guidance systems:

Controlled use of daylight

Light guidance blinds are specially designed for daylight control. The main purpose of these blinds is to effectively steer daylight incident upon the windows onto the ceiling and into the middle of the room, thus ensuring that enough natural light enters the room to eliminate the need for artificial lighting for as long as possible.

This is achieved through the use of specially developed, concave slats with highly reflective surfaces. The slat spacing and geometry is calculated to reflect all of the light falling onto the blind’s surface into the room.

Ergonomic illumination of computer workstations must not only addresses the efficient utilization of daylight but must also provide for the thermal and visual comfort for the occupants.

WAREMA light guidance venetian blinds are daylight systems that can meet all of these requirements. They are suitable for use in interiors and in weather-protected double facades.

Glare control for computer workstations

Natural fluctuations in brightness can lead to excessive contrasts and reflections in the modern workplace that cause glare.

For these situations, WAREMA has developed light guidance venetian blinds that shield computer screens.

The slats are divided into two sections. When positioned to shield computer screens from glare, the lower slats are closed while the upper ones are left in a horizontal position to allow daylight to enter the room without causing glare.

In the standard model, the two slat sections are interconnected.

WAREMA double-blind

The WAREMA double blind is particularly comfortable and versatile. The two slat sections can be operated completely independently of each other. Whether to shield computer screens or for meetings, on overcast winter days or clear summer days, the blinds can be adjusted to create the ideal lighting conditions for every working situation.

Effective summer heat protection

Especially during the summer months, daylight systems run the risk of transporting too much light (radiation) into the room. This radiation is absorbed and transformed into long-wave infrared radiation which heats up the room excessively (greenhouse effect).

With the WAREMA light guidance blinds, users can adjust the transmission coefficient (incidence of light) to their individual needs by simply modifying the slat angle.

Since the mirror-finished slats reflect rather than absorb radiation, the unwanted radiation will pass back out through the window pane without heating up the room.

This means that slats can be adjusted not only to change the transmission coefficient, but also to set the total energy conduction coefficient [gf] of daylight systems and the glazing.

The available setting range extends from the g value of the glazing (venetian blind raised) to the venetian blind being completely closed.
