Horiso™ External Venetian Blinds

Our external shading systems represent a highly effective solution for solar control, reflecting light and heat before it reaches the building envelope. Horiso external venetian blinds help reduce glare and increase thermal gain while also enhancing natural light and maximising energy savings. Versatile and functional, Horiso external Venetian blinds enable complete light and solar control. Resilient blades and hardware engineered for harsh weather conditions, including strong winds, ice and snow. Horiso has been wind tunnel tested and proven to be effective in wind speeds up to 77kph.

Application/Purpose

Managing light and energy along the windowed walls of a building can be achieved automatically with the SAI (Sun Angle Incidence) software and Matrix Controllers. Direct sunlight is prevented from entering a building using automatic commands to the controllers, which adjust the height of the shades according to the Sun’s Angle of Incidence. The intelligent control features include: BMS (Building Management System) integration with shade status feedback using RS232/ RS485 communication, bus line communication for individual shade motors and software reconfiguration using remote access from any location in the world.

Benefits/Advantages

-Control of natural light. Positioning of blind blades deflects light onto a ceiling and distributes the light into the room.
-Glare from the sun is reduced to up to 69%. Eye irritation is reduced and computer screen visibility is improved.
-Energy saving heat protection. Horiso External Venetian Blinds reduce the amount of heat from the sun entering a building. Up to 93% of the heat can be screened by reflection and absorption.
-Omega attached ladder braiding prevents unwanted movement and maintains stability.
-Maximum width up to 5.8 metres
-Maximum drop up to 8 metres
-Conveniently operated with an electric drive

Composition

Horiso External Venetian Blinds are 100mm aluminium flexible blades which can be supplied as standard or perforated. They are available in white, silver, dark silver and bronze. Horiso has the smallest pack height available on the market due to its innovative blade design and can span up to 5800mm and up to 8m maximum drop. When retracted the product is fully enclosed in a totally weatherproof aluminium pelmet, colour coordinated to match the blind.

Technical Properties

Crowned aluminium blades are made from highly elastic special alloy, bend proof, scratchproof and shockproof, 2-layer stove enamelled (including on the longitudinal edges).
Motorised operable systems can be controlled by switch (either singly or in groups) or can be connected to an automatic control system. Depending upon the specific project requirements, a wide range of different control features might be required.

Installation and Maintenance Summary

Horiso Venetian Blinds will be installed by specially trained, experienced technicians. They are maintenance almost free. You can hose them down but the rain helps keep the blinds clean.
