System 22 - Solar Control

Metal Technology's System 22 Brise Soleil system has been designed as a lightweight solar shading system to suit most architectural requirements. Metal Technology’s Brise Soleil is a simple system to install and is designed to reduce solar glare and therefore overheating within the building. Aerofoil blades placed between outriggers can be attached back to Metal Technology’s Curtain Walling or the structure of the building itself. Mounted in front of the building the blades can provide a continuous shade around corners and curves. This, combined with the various angles at which the system can be installed, ensures that the shade created is of maximum benefit. The option of vertical or horizontal application is also available depending on the design requirements. With a choice of both 150mm and 200mm pitched aerofoil blades it offers designers a versatile and practical solution to managing solar radiation, whilst adding a modern architectural aesthetic. Designed with fast and practical installation in mind it offers main contractors a highly cost effective solution. Metal Technology can design various other profiles which can be incorporated allowing architects to achieve flexible designs.
