SFM Zip Screen

Anti-glare coating, versatile range of applications

The SFM Zip Screen is an innovative zip screen system, which is mounted in front of the window. Depending on the type of fabric, translucent or opaque sun protection can be created that significantly reduces the amount of solar radiation without too much loss of daylight. Thanks to the extensive variety of colours, the system offers maximum flexibility and a wide variety of design options for use on buildings. The SFM Zip Screen is used for private, edium and large building projects and is particularly suitable for use in schools, office buildings and residential buildings. In combination with the SFM C 50 curtain wall system, partial or full integration into the curtain wall is also possible.

Energy efficient full shading

The application-versatile SFM Zip Screen consists of a translucent fabric, which, by reflecting sunlight, reduces it by up to 75% without having to forego natural daylight. At the same time, UV radiation is filtered by up to 98%.* For special applications, the use of darkening textiles is possible with the SFM Zip Screen. The system thus guarantees a pleasant climate on hot days and allows for the regulation of room atmosphere. At the same time the SFM Zip Screen provides optimum anti-glare, privacy and heat protection. The sun protection system enables savings to be made in cooling and heating costs, as the heat input can be individually adjusted as required.

Specification

Easy installation of the highly weather-resistant system

The SFM Zip Screen meets the constantly growing demand for sun protection and more than complies with the requirements of offering sun protection irrespective of the wind, and with the ability to provide shade for large areas. The innovative sun protection system achieves a very good wind resistance class. Only at wind velocities exceeding 145 km/h does the curtain need to be retracted. Thanks to the low coil diameters of the fabric, installation in boxes with small dimensions is possible without any problems. For example, a window height of
3 × 3 metres only requires a box with a height of 95 mm. Planners, building owners and SFM partners benefit from the simple installation and the long service life of the system.

Other system advantages:
» Shade areas up to 5 metres wide and areas of 15 m2 are possible
» Particularly weatherproof and low-maintenance
» Guide of the textile through a zipper attached to the cloth
» Driven by electronically controlled motors
» Shutter control via manual button or radio possible
» SKFM Zip Screen can be integrated into intelligent building control systems
» It is possible to install obstacle detection, which stops the curtain when it encounters resistance

The SFM Zip Screen sun protection system with its new SFM FME VS Z HC N box system offers the right answer to any possible design questions. In addition, the semi-circular design ensures optimal light.

Our established, extensive portfolio of guide rails and spacers is also available. For box sizes 95, 105 and 125 mm, versatile installation and application options are possible, in the familiar slim SKFM Design.
