GKD’s new Solar Omega stainless steel metal fabric panels are geared for sun shading.
As the sun rises higher in the sky, the stacking effects of the horizontal metal rods shade the building façade. As the sun descends, more daylight is allowed through the mesh. Options include deeper horizontal rods, which increase the amount of shading while maintaining views through the fabric, and the ability to vary the open area based on the unique solar needs of the project.
Flexible and rigid versions are available.
