CS Airfoil is a fixed aluminium brise soleil (solar shading) system with all the required functionality you would expect to meet current legislation.
Designed to truly enhance and complement your exterior façade the CS fin shaped blades with accessories allow design and layout creativity.
External solar shading, like aluminium brise soleil systems are a proven method of significantly reducing solar heat gain in a building’s interior. Furthermore, it can reduce the need for air conditioning and therefore helps to reduce building CO2 emissions.
Approved Document L2 (2002)
Building Regulations Approved Document L2 (2002) provides information and guidance regarding the conservation of fuel and power in buildings.
The energy efficiency measures covered in the document include making reasonable provisions for limiting exposure to solar overheating and addressing the performance of air conditioning and mechanical ventilation systems, which have been contributing largely to the increase in carbon dioxide emissions.
A wide selection of blades offering clean lines and sleek, modern design.
