External sun shading systems are the most effective solution for cost-effective energy management and thermal comfort. The sun’s thermal energy is kept out before it reaches the glass and this effectively protects the interior against overheating. External venetian blinds also offer flexible daylight utilisation with simultaneous glare control, as the sunlight entering the room can be controlled via the adjustable slat angles. Flat slats are frequently chosen by architects because of their elegant and unobtrusive appearance. The streamlined flat slat systems come in many different variants that can be easily integrated into any type of building, making them extremely popular with designers and property developers.
At first glance, all external venetian blind slats look the same. But with a closer look, you will learn to recognise and appreciate some key differences. Because as an expert, WAREMA has developed special slats – optimally tailored to the use and your preferences. External venetian blinds with flat slats are particularly suitable for small window sizes because of their slender design. They provide an excellent view out and require very little space because of their minimal cover panel height.
Have you seen the new Windra 80 WF flat slat from WAREMA? It was specially developed for demanding, wind-exposed facades and can withstand wind speeds of up to 90 km/h. It combines the delicate elegance of a flat slat with exceptional stability, ensuring flexible light guidance and reliable thermal protection even with high wind loads.
Wind-stable solutions for tall buildings and for facades in areas exposed to the wind are already available, including external venetian blinds with beaded slats and rail-guided slats and fabric window awnings with stable easyZip guidance. But the Windra flat slat sets new standards in light guidance and aesthetics: it combines the delicate elegance of a flat slat with exceptional stability, ensuring flexible light guidance and reliable thermal protection even under high wind loads. This means that the Windra flat slat can play an important role in building energy management.
Windra is 80 mm wide and retains the delicate appearance of a flat slat. Its stability has been increased considerably by doubling the material thickness and optimising its geometry. Both cables and rails can be used for lateral guidance.
