External Vertical and Zip-guided Blinds | Shade Factor

External Vertical and Zip-guided Blinds from Shade Factor offer fabric blind solutions. The range of advanced fabrics used for the blinds cuts glare, reduces solar heat gain in the interiors, and allows a view of the outside, even while lowered. The blinds combine function and aesthetics taking the design of architectural facades into consideration.

ZIP Awnings

Shade Factor's ZIP blinds are special external rolling blinds with captive edges held under constant tension by side-mounted rails. The result is a fabric blind that operates very smoothly and can be used in much higher wind situations than normal external blinds. Shade Factor ZIP Blinds are available with a variety of square or round enclosures and can span up to 6m wide by 6m drop (max area per blind 18m2). Blinds can be mounted directly to facades or on small standoff brackets.

Vertical Awnings

The awning is manufactured with a combination of precision-engineered motors, noise-insulated guide rails, and marine-grade components. This creates a smooth-running and long-lasting awning.
