SkyTwin
The innovation of the SkyTwin system lies in the integration of the external roller shutter and screen in a single product, which has created a technologically advanced and revolutionary solution on the market.
The product has been developed with energy-efficient construction in mind, so its design has been fully adapted for built-in use. Thus, the system is ideally suited for assembly in newly constructed buildings or in existing buildings, once the necessary changes have been made to the lintel. There are brackets available in several sizes to finish the development with any material. The main element of this innovative solution is a 180×260 mm aluminium shutter box made of bent aluminium sheet in which the two round reels are placed. The technology of the SkyTwin system provides for a SkyRoll ZIP and SkyRoll Classic version of the screen. Most importantly, the ZIP technology ensures maximum sealing and protection of the interior against the presence of insects.
The well-thought-out construction of the SkyTwin system allows the roller shutter curtain to be made using selected aluminium profiles filled with polyurethane foam, PT37 plastic profiles or PE41 extruded profiles. Aluprof's range includes a collection of specialised screen fabrics from renowned European manufacturers, i. e. Copaco and Serge Ferrari. Materials from which the screen fabrics are made are very resistant to everyday use, deformation, tearing, as well as weather conditions. (rain, UV radiation, wind, etc.).
SkyTwin is an ideal proposition for manufacturers who want to provide their customers with modern, functional and energy-efficient solutions. On a hot, sunny day, by using the screen, the user can lower the temperature in the room by up to several degrees Celsius, achieving a comfortable environment for working and living, while providing an adequate view of the outside. In winter, on the other hand, when there is a risk of rapid cooling of the rooms, the roller-screen turns out to be an excellent ally that provides additional thermal insulation. This is demonstrated, among other things, by research carried out by Aluprof in conjunction with the Kraków University of Technology, which has shown that closing both the screen and roller shutter curtain can reduce heat loss through the window by up to 35% (the level of improvement in thermal comfort depends on the window's Uw heat transfer coefficient).
