Awning Shading Solutions - Enhancing Energy Efficiency and Aesthetics

The practical advantages of providing shade on modern buildings cannot be overestimated. With the increasing costs of energy Architects are being asked to build into their designs means of cooling buildings without the excessive use of costly air-conditioning.

Awnings, controlled by automatic sensors, prevent excess heat in the summer and, when retracted, allow solar gain to reduce the cost of heating. These practical advantages are enhanced by the obvious aesthetic improvements which can be made to the exterior of modern buildings. Older buildings are sympathetically catered for by the installation of our traditional, Victorian style of blinds and awnings.
