High insulation and heat shielding performance. External blinds available in 26 color variations.
Achieve a life without relying on air conditioning with high insulation and heat shielding performance. ★ External blinds, a common practice in environmentally advanced Germany. ★ Ideal for Japan's hot summer climate. Even if you block the intense summer sunlight with indoor blinds or curtains, heat continues to accumulate near the windows. Relying solely on air conditioning to dissipate this heat is inefficient. The rational method to block sunlight outside the windows is "external blinds," which are already standard in environmentally advanced Germany. These external blinds create shade outside the window and share a mechanism with traditional Japanese sunshades like "yoshizu" and "sudare," making them the best solution for sunlight control in Japan's climate. 【In summer, about 70% of energy flows in through the windows. The fundamental energy-saving measure is 'window insulation.'】 You often hear terms like "high insulation" and "external insulation." This refers to buildings designed structurally to minimize the influence of outside temperatures on indoor conditions, allowing for a comfortable indoor temperature with less energy. Among these, the most crucial point for improving a building's energy efficiency is the "windows." By blocking heat from direct sunlight in summer and allowing it in during winter, significant savings on heating and cooling costs can be achieved.

Detailed information

Cuts solar energy from window glass by about 80%. The external blinds from "Valema" have a low transmittance of solar energy, blocking about 80% outside the window. Since they are installed outdoors, the air between the window and the blinds circulates, making it difficult for heat to accumulate, thus enhancing heat insulation. In contrast, with indoor blinds, the heat that accumulates between the window and the blinds or curtains leads to a greenhouse effect due to reflection, resulting in an increase in room temperature.
-
The air conditioning operating rate is about one-third when indoor blinds are installed. This can significantly reduce air conditioning costs. If we consider the air conditioning operating rate of a room using ordinary glass (single) without sunshades on the windows to be 100%, the air conditioning operating rate of a room with external blinds installed is only 25%. Compared to the 75% of indoor blinds, it is about one-third, making it economical.

Compatible with a maximum size of 5m x 5m. Large windows are essential for creating an open space that incorporates natural light. However, large openings also have the drawback of causing the room temperature to rise too much. With Valema, which can be installed in large openings of up to 5m, you can enhance the design of the building while keeping the exterior looking sleek.
-
In addition to a view and a pathway for the wind, privacy is also well secured. Concerned about outside gazes? They can be blocked by slightly darkening the interior. The inside is hard to see from the outside, while the outside can be seen well from inside. Changing the angle of the slats does not obstruct ventilation, allowing you to secure privacy while inviting in the pleasant natural breeze from outdoors.
-
Slats are available in 26 colors. The "Valema" slats come in a rich variety of 26 colors. For metal components such as cover panels and guide rails, you can choose from approximately 200 colors. They can be freely coordinated to harmonize with the exterior walls and facades of buildings, as well as to serve as design accents. They contribute to the beautiful scenery of the city through various architectural structures, including single-family homes.
-
Achieve an open view with slat widths of 60mm to 100mm. The standard slat width for blinds is 80mm. While it varies by type, you can choose from approximately 60mm to 100mm according to your preference. With ample spacing between the slats during use, even when installed across the entire window, the view from inside is good, and there is no sense of confinement. In fact, having the privacy barrier outside the building allows you to feel the spaciousness of the interior even more than with indoor blinds.
-
Rail guide type slats are equipped with two fixed guiding nipples welded at both ends, ensuring stability against wind and smooth ascent and descent. (Example of roll slats) Plastic eyelets can also be added as an option. (Standard equipment for roll slats)
