We measure, quote, supply and professionally install across Johannesburg and Sandton. Every product is made to measure — nothing off the shelf.
South Africa's building energy standard, SANS 10400-XA:2021 (Ed 2), regulates solar heat gain through glazing for good reason: glass is where summer heat enters. External shading intercepts that heat before the glass; quality interior blinds add an adjustable second layer. The result is a cooler home and less air-conditioning load — comfort you can feel and running costs you can measure.
Openness-factor fabrics (3–5%) that cut glare and heat while keeping your view and daylight. The specifier’s choice for view-facing glass.

Yes — shading reduces solar heat gain through glazing, which is exactly what SANS 10400-XA:2021 (Ed 2), South Africa's building energy-usage standard, regulates through fenestration requirements. External shading is the most effective because it intercepts heat before the glass; quality interior blinds add a further adjustable layer.
