Product Overview
DUE T T E ® Sh a d e s
Energy Benefits
The distinctive honeycomb of DUETTE® Fabric traps air in the
cells creating air pockets that act as an insulator. A white heat
reflective fabric is used on the external face (window side) of
the cell structure to reflect solar heat and aid the insulation
process.
Automated DUETTE® Shades can be connected to building
management systems for optimal control of air conditioning
loads and comfort of the building occupants.
Environmental and Employee Benefits
The superior insulating performance of DUETTE® Shades can
significantly improve temperature comfort for building occupants
all year.
The flexibility of opening and operating options gives people
complete control over the degree of light and heat entry and
level of privacy in their workspace, leading to greater levels of
satisfaction and comfort.
New Zealand Window Shades, operates under an Environmental
Management System that actively works towards waste and
emission reduction and maximising the use of recycling.
Unique Features
DUETTE® Shades are characterised by their unique cellular
structure. The cells provide an insulation barrier that reduces
the exchange of heat in summer and winter. The double-walled
honeycomb structure makes the fabric extremely strong, durable
and flexible. DUETTE® Shades can be made in an almost infinite
variety of shapes, including operating arches, and can operate
in almost every direction. They are truly the most versatile of
window covering solutions.
The cellular structure of DUETTE® Shades provides superior
insulation capability. The creases in DUETTE® fabric will not
‘drop out’ over time.
Top-down operated shades allow blinds to be open at the top
to permit natural light to enter the workspace while the lower
part of the blind remains closed, reducing glare on computer
screens.
Fire Retardant
DUETTE® Shades are suitable for use in Class 1-9 buildings
according to the Building Code of Australia.
