ZIP SOLAR is built on the ZIP PRO platform and retains the performance, functionality, and design advantages offered by the established screen system.
Energy-Efficient Shading
Exterior solar shading helps manage sunlight before it reaches the glazing, supporting improved indoor comfort and reduced solar heat gain.
Ideal Applications
Renovation Projects
Ideal for existing buildings where installing new electrical wiring would be difficult, disruptive, or costly.
New Construction
Provides a clean, self-powered exterior shading solution for energy-conscious residential and commercial projects.
Hard-to-Wire Windows
