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 intense summer sunlight is blocked by indoor blinds or curtains, it continues to generate heat near the windows. Relying solely on air conditioning to dissipate the heat trapped indoors is inefficient. The rational method to block this sunlight from outside the windows is "external blinds," which are already standard in environmentally advanced Germany. These external blinds create shade outside the windows and share a mechanism with traditional Japanese sunshades like "yoshizu" and "sudare," making them the best solution for sun protection in Japan's climate. 【In summer, approximately 70% of energy flows in through the windows. The foundation of energy-saving measures 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 critical 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.

Cuts about 80% of solar energy from window glass The external blinds from "Valema" have a low solar energy transmission rate, blocking about 80% of it outside the window. Because they are installed outdoors, the air between the window and the blinds can circulate, making it difficult for heat to accumulate and increasing 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 the air conditioning operating rate of a room using ordinary glass (single) without sunshades on the windows is set at 100%, the air conditioning operating rate of a room with external blinds installed is only 25%. Compared to the 75% of indoor blinds, this is about one-third, making it economical.

Supports a maximum size of 5m x 5m. Large windows are essential for creating an open space that incorporates natural light. However, a large opening can also lead to excessive room temperature increases. With Valema, which can be installed in openings up to 5m, you can enhance the design of the building while keeping the exterior sleek.
-
In addition to the view and the passage of wind, privacy is also well secured. Concerned about outside gazes? They can be blocked by slightly darkening the interior. The interior is hard to see from the outside, while the outside can be clearly seen 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 slats of "Valema" come in a rich variety of 26 colors. For metal components such as cover panels and guide rails, you can choose from about 200 colors. They can be coordinated freely to harmonize with the building's exterior walls and facades, or to serve as accents in design. They contribute to the beautiful scenery of the town through various buildings, including single-family homes.
-
Achieve an open view with slat widths of 60mm to 100mm. The standard slat width for blinds is 80mm. Depending on the type, it can vary, but you can choose from almost 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 indoors remains 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.
-
Weight-integrated end rail The wind stable type is designed with specifications different from the standard type to withstand strong winds on high floors. It is equipped with wind-resistant skirts, Z-shaped slats, a guide that combines rails and cables, and a heavier end rail (a rail attached to the bottom to stabilize the slats).
