Modern glass architecture requires effective protection against intensive sun light. Woven wire cloth can be utilized to break and filter sunrays, creating an effective, aesthetic sun protection screen.
Behind the screen, a comfortable, fresh and light internal climate is created with mesh appearing almost transparent. Whilst at the same time offering a degree of privacy.
Project Example - Benaki Museum, Athens
Not only new sport arenas were built for the Olmpic Games 2004 in Athens, Greece. Many other buildings have been upgraded for this event. The Benaki Museum for example was equipped with a facade cladding consisting of 361 m² of stainless steel wire mesh type EGLA-TWIN 4253. 12 equal elements were installed using the Haver & Boecker tensioning mechanism flat tension profile with clevis screws. At the bottom additional tension springs were incorporated. For the intermediate mountings of the 14,30 m large elements wire connectors have been used.
This new modern building has been built to house art exhibitions, gallery and cultural events on behalf of the Benaki Museum Organisation. The structure incorporates an atrium for several open space events.
EGLA-TWIN 4253 panels lend a dense feeling to the façade whilst at the same time they reflect and diffuse the spotlights creating interesting reflection shapes. This wire mesh specification offers adequate sun protection of the south facing facade of the atrium. |

HunterDouglas® Aerofoils are standard available in 6 different sizes and in an adjustable or fixed configuration. The specific fin design allows for larger spans and there is a choice of support structures.
FIXED FIN ANGLE
• The fixed fin support structure has been designed to accommodate any
angle between 0° and 180° with increments of 5 degrees. The fin angle
can be set during installation.
• Fixed fin V-bracket, available in 0, 30 and 45 degree for the 200 - 300AF.
• Fixed fin Cup-bracket, available in 0, 30 and 45 degree for the 350 -

Designed to reduce the effects of direct sunlight on a building façade Lockline sunscreens reduce energy consumption while at the same time providing a near uninterrupted view of the surroundings. Approximately one third the weight of an equivalent steel profile, Lockline aluminium sunscreens offer construction savings as they can be installed easily without the need for bulky support structures.
Lockline sunscreens can be installed vertically, horizontally or at any angle in between. When installed horizontally it is possible for the sunscreen to provide a dual role as both sunscreen and as a walkway for maintenance access or for window cleaning. Vertical screens on the other hand can be used to hide unsightly areas around the building including bin storage areas, plant and equipment locations and vehicle access ways. Lockline screens can be manufactured in individual panel sizes up to a maximum of 6m x 1.2m. Larger areas can be achieved by joining edge bars or extending the swage bars.
