SUN PROTECTION

Why choose sun protection systems?Both screens and terrace awnings make your life more comfortable. Screens are translucent yet keep out a large part of the sun’s heat. This allows you to stop your home from over-heating without sacrificing the view. Outdoor solutions such as terrace awnings ensure that you can enjoy your garden and terrace to the full.

Discover four more good reasons to opt for sun protection systems:

To enjoy a pleasant temperature indoorsThe primary purpose of sun protection systems is to keep the sun out. In the warm summer months, you can enjoy a pleasant climate indoors by stopping the sun’s rays before they enter your home. This means you have no need of expensive and power-hungry air conditioning.

To protect your interiorOne benefit you might not have considered is that your interior will last longer. A sun protection system blocks harmful UV radiation that can cause discolouration.

To enjoy your terrace day and night During the day, a terrace awning protects you against scorching sunshine; you suffer less from the oppressive heat and run less risk of sunburn. In the evening, heat is retained longer under the awning so you can sit outside until it grows late.

To enjoy your conservatory all year roundNowadays a conservatory is used as an extra living space. But the combination of a glass roof and large windows creates a real risk of overheating. Especially in the summer. Fitting a sun protection enables you to spend time in your conservatory because the sun’s rays are blocked even before they can penetrate the glass surface.

The right choice for any situation

Wilms offers traditional built-in, surface-mounted and built-on roller shutters along with pioneering innovations.

Not sure which roller shutter is right for your home? Don’t worry, our team of specialists is here to help you make an informed choice.

Types of screen

• Built-on screens & built-on roller shutters with Rolvent® ventilation The ideal solution for newbuild homes and renovations where the windows will be completely replaced. The box can be perfectly integrated into the design of your home.

from p.11

• Surface-mounted screens Surface-mounted screens are the answer if space for a sun protection system was not planned at the time of construction. Wilms has the smallest boxes on the market. They are simple to fit above the window with no need for extensive reconstruction and demolition work.

from p.19

• Airtight ZipX®Zero built-in screens The patented ZipX®Zero system is integrated and therefore completely invisible from both inside and outside (when the screen is rolled up). A wind-proof solution from Wilms.

SUN PROTECTION

Built-on screens, in keeping with your homeBuilt-on screens are fitted in your home with the windows as a complete unit. This means they can only be used in newbuild or if the windows are completely replaced at the same time. Wilms’ built-on boxes are pre-insulated to keep heat loss to a minimum. They are also compatible with any window type and any possible window profile.

Depending on the position, you can choose for the box only to be visible on the inside of your home. However, it is also possible for the front plate to be fitted in a visible location. In this case, it is then finished in film or an RAL colour of your choice so that the window and the screen box merge into a coherent whole.

Benefits of a Wilms built-on screen

• The boxes are supplied as a complete unit ready for fitting as the windows are installed.

• They can be perfectly concealed in the interior of your home.

• Depending on how they are fitted, only a small part of the front plate will be visible on the exterior of your home. If there is no room for a built-on box in the interior wall, it can be fitted in the window opening, “in the reveal”, although the front plate is then visible.

• The guide rails have been designed to ensure it is still possible to install a fly screen, even when the screen is closed.

When should you choose built-on screens?

• If you are planning to renovate in the near future and will replace your windows in their entirety.

• If you want a box that is invisible from the outside.

• If you are happy for the built-on box to form part of your interior.

Rolvent®: natural ventilationWilms’ built-on boxes are also available with ventilation. Insulation and ventilation are the key watchwords nowadays in both construction and renovation projects.

Rolvent® is a complete innovation on our built-on box. This system guarantees a constant airflow even when the screen is closed. Moreover, Rolvent® is compatible with any window type, with the great benefit that there is nothing visible on the outside of your home. Enjoy healthy air quality indoors without sacrificing anything in the way of aesthetics.

Benefits of a Wilms built-on screen with ventilation

• Your home continues to be naturally ventilated, even with the screens closed.

• The Rolvent® ventilation grilles are insect-repellent.

• There is no visible grille on the outside of your home.

• The guide rails have been designed to ensure it is still possible to install a fly screen, even when the screen is closed.

When choosing build-up screens?

• You’re going to renovate in the near future and completely replace your windows.

• You want a box that’s invisible from the outside.

• The build-on box may be part of your interior.

Good to knowThe required ventilation is calculated from the required ventilation flow of the room. Based on this, we then recom-mend a type A or type B grille. Have you reached the required ventilation flow? Then you can fit an ordinary built-on box without a grille. They are the same height so it is perfectly possible to combine built-on boxes with and without ventilation.

Tip!

When you renovate, you can include a ventilation system

when the windows are fitted, thereby avoiding any additional

reconstruction or demolition work.

Installation with visible front plate

Acoustic insulationAs soon as you consider ventilation, there is a risk of disturbing noise from the outside environment. We can tackle this by providing acoustic insulation if required. The standard box has noise damping of 33 dB, whereas the acoustic version goes up to 38 dB. The addition of acoustic insulation does not affect the size of the box. After all, it is completely concealed in the box and from outside you wouldn’t know it was there. The guide rails are also the same with both boxes.

Surface-mounted screens: cooling on warm daysDid you underestimate the temperatures in a hot summer when you built your home? No problem! You can always turn to Wilms for surface-mounted screens with no need for lots of reconstruction and demolition work.

There are two ways to fit surface-mounted screens: either on the façade above the window (‘above the reveal’) or in the reveal against the window profile. Our boxes are available in three sizes. The size of the box is determined by the height and width of the window.

Moreover, you can choose between a square box, a chamfered box and a round box, whichever is better in keeping with the style of your home.

Benefits of a Wilms surface-mounted screen

• Existing homes: overlooked the screen when designing your home? Surface-mounted screens solve this problem because they are fitted in front of the window with little reconstruction and demolition work.

• Design: the boxes for our surface-mounted screens are the smallest on the market so they do not spoil the look of your home. Depending on the size of the window, the box can be fitted flush with the façade.

When should you choose surface-mounted screens?

• If no space for screens was provided when your home was built.

• If you want ease of installation with little reconstruction and demolition work.

Good to knowOur surface-mounted screens are also available with a solar sensor for an optimum climate indoors.

ZipX®Zero: invisible and strongZipX®Zero is a windproof, vertical built-in screen.

The fabric, with a welded zip, runs via a plastic guide rail system with strips of EPDM (rubber) to catch the wind. This makes the screen windproof in any position and insect-repellent when closed. You can keep a partial view outside whilst stopping the direct sunlight.

ZipX®Zero has been specially developed for use in passive and low-energy homes.

What energy benefits does ZipX®Zero offer?

Scre

ens

Avoid a thermal bridgeInstalling built-in screens creates a thermal bridge because you remove insulation in the place where the box will be. The development process of ZipX®Zero focused intensively on finding a solution to this problem. You can read about the new techniques on page 27.

S-scoreThe S-score expresses the energy efficiency of a housing unit in a single number. The less energy required to keep the temperature of the housing unit at a constant level, the lower this number. The Flemish government is using this to place extra focus on reducing energy demand. An independent consultancy found that our ZipX®Zero system can reduce a home’s S-score by no fewer than 3 S-points! Since the S-score represents a tightening up of the rules, you can benefit greatly. Do you live in a region where the S-score is not used? The benefits of our airtight solution are clear for every region, of course, because your energy costs will drop.

Reduce energy demandSimulations show that fitting our ZipX®Zero system enables the lowest characteristic energy consumption* of any solution in the market to be achieved. This is because, with our system, you can enjoy the perfect indoor climate all year round with no need for expensive technologies.

Are there any alternatives?You could choose to reduce the g-value (the ratio between incident solar radiation and transmitted solar radiation) of your glass. This is a permanent decision and you would no longer enjoy the solar gain in the winter. Screens are therefore a less radical and more beneficial choice.

(*) The characteristic energy consumption is calculated using assumptions and particular circumstances, which allows buildings to be compared.

Built-in screens are fully integrated into the design of

your home for a harmonious, sleek look.

Invisibly concealed in the cavity wallZipX®Zero is the first of its type to be completely airtight and integrated into the cavity wall. The box is completely concealed behind the façade and even the end lath disappears into the box. When fully rolled up, therefore, ZipX®Zero is invisible from both inside and outside!

Composite profile replaces the insulation in the cavity wallInsulation is removed to make space for the box in the cavity. Installing a composite profile replaces this loss of insulation. Wilms is the only supplier in the market to use this method.

Airtight membraneWilms fits an airtight membrane as standard on the composite profile above and below the window. This membrane is simply finished against the outside of the interior wall.

No condensationThe usual plywood does not provide optimum insulation. The result is condensation and dark spots on the plaster. Insulating structural panels absorb the temperature differences and avoid the thermal bridge next to the window.

No ugly roll linesIn addition to traditional steel, Wilms also offers a carbon roll for better fabric adhesion. This makes the fabric hang better and prevents horizontal roll lines. This technology is only found with Wilms!

Streamlined guide railsThe guide rails for ZipX®Zero are concealed in the wall so they are invisible when you are standing right in front of the window. They can be painted in an RAL colour of your choice to blend in beautifully with the window.

Stop creepy crawliesThere is a gap between the screen and the window to install a fly screen.

No more cold window sillsHave you ever felt the window sills inside your home in winter? They are almost always cold. Wilms solves this by using a shielded composite profile on which the window sill can sit. The profile keeps the cold out and supports the window profile.

Moisture stays outsideThe window sill is susceptible to moisture because the window is secured to the interior wall. This runs the risk of water seeping in if there is anything wrong with the installation. Wilms provides a drainage profile with a drainage membrane and this profile ensures that moisture stays where it belongs: outside!

When should you choose ZipX®Zero?

• If you are planning to build or completely renovate a home• If you want to reduce your energy level by several points• If the box of your screen must be invisible

Good to knowYou can choose either blue stone or aluminium for the window sill. The latter can be ordered from Wilms. A sound-damping, anti-drumming membrane is fitted as standard under the aluminium window sill.

The ZipX®Zero is also available with cable guides, which is an ideal solution for angled windows without a profile. However the system is then not windproof.

Carbon or aluminium tube: lightweight and effectiveUntil now, rolls have traditionally been made of steel. At Wilms you can now also choose a roll made from carbon or aluminium. This innovation is much more light-weight and hence easier to fit. The fabric also hangs better owing to better fabric adhesion. Ugly horizontal roll lines are most certainly a thing of the past!

Benefits of a carbon or aluminium roll

• Smaller roll diameter for a small box.

• New type of fabric adhesion so the fabric hangs better.

• Horizontal roll lines are prevented.

• Lighter: makes fitting easier and the fabric hang better.

Wilms offers three roll diameters as standard: • 63 mm – available in steel.• 66 mm – available in steel.• 74 mm (only from Wilms!) – available in carbon or aluminium.

Our carbon and aluminium rolls can be used on the following products: • WRB0400 (ZipX®120)• WRB0600 (ZipX®Zero)• WVS0200 (Rolvent® screen)• WRB0500 (Built-on screen)

Good to knowChoose aluminium or carbon depending on the length required. Aluminium: available from 550 mm to 4500 mm. Carbon: available from 4500 mm to 6000 mm.

SUN PROTECTION

Folding arm awnings: only visible when you want them to beA folding arm awning is the most elegant solution; you only see the awning when you want to. Sun not a problem? Then the awning is concealed in a box against the wall. When the sun is too bright, the folding arm awning emerges at the press of a button.

When should you choose folding arm awnings?

• If you like to spend time on your terrace yet want to avoid the bright sunshine.

• If you want to decide for yourself when the awning should be visible.

• If you want to limit overheating in your home.

Good to knowIn the past, a wired motor was usually operated by a switch on the wall. Nowadays, it is often operated by a remote control or via an app or home automation system.

Box shapesPresident - WPA0100Wilms offers the WPA0100 with a round or square front profile. You can choose which shape appeals better to your taste. The boxes are largely identical but the dimensions vary slightly because of the different front profile. Both boxes are open on the wall side.

Solitair - WPA0200 The WPA0200, on the other hand, has a fully closed box so the fabric is completely concealed in the box. The front profile of this box is only available in a round shape. The elegant and ultra-compact box design ensures that this awning will fit in with any home, whether modern or traditional. As an extra bonus, this WPA0200 has a fabric shell for protection and additional support for the fabric.

Terrace awning: strong and elegantIs your wall not strong enough to bear the weight of a folding arm awning? A terrace awning is the solution. It is similar to a folding arm awning in many respects, the major difference being that the surrounding structure is permanently visible.

Wilms has developed an exclusive terrace awning with no cross beams visible when the awning is rolled away.

Benefits of a Wilms WPA0600

• No cross beams are visible when the awning is closed, thereby maintaining a clear view.

• The fabric is fixed in the guide rail, making the awning more windproof.

When should you choose a fixed terrace awning?

• If you want to enjoy your terrace for longer, even when there is a bit of wind.

• If you love beautiful, sleek design.

• If your wall is not strong enough to bear the weight of a folding arm awning.

Good to knowThe WPA0600 can also be fitted above the ground floor (for example on a balcony or roof terrace). The height of the support pillars is variable.

SUN PROTECTION

The perfect finish

Our products are always made to your specification. You can choose from various box types, colours, fabrics and controls to give you a product that perfectly meets your needs. You can also specify the position of the electrical connections. Your wish is our command!

Controls Once you have chosen the appropriate type of sun protection system, you can specify how you want to operate it. Nowadays, motorised screens and outdoor solutions are increasingly popular. Convenient and handy!

ElectricAn electric control makes your sun protection system much easier to operate and there are even more benefits if you combine it with a solar sensor. The climate inside your home can be controlled automatically. If there is a risk of your home heating up, the screen is closed even if there is nobody home. This automatic control can even improve the energy level of your home.

You have a choice of the following options: Wired motors In the past, a wired motor was usually controlled by a switch on the wall.

Nowadays, a home automation system or app is common. Ask our specialists for advice.

One-way communication The motor is operated using a remote control but can only receive signals.

The motor will not provide any feedback if the screen is impeded anywhere.

Two-way communication The motor is operated using a remote control and can also give

feedback. It lets you know that something is wrong if there is a problem. This message is displayed on the remote control used to operate the screen.

Choice of fabric The confection of the fabric is done inhouse. Wilms offers a wide range of fabric types, which you can find in various collections. Every fabric type has different colour options and features. Will you choose a fabric that allows a lot of light through? Or would you prefer one with greater blackout properties? The colour of the fabric can be matched to your windows or roller shutters to blend into a homogeneous look.

Masters of shadow in practiceOur masters of shadow have been doing everything to offer an impeccable service for 45 years. As a thoroughly Belgian company, we set great store by our craft. Corporate social responsibility and respect for the environment run through the entire production process.

Everything under one roof At Wilms, we are strong believers in the principle of vertical integration. We manage the entire production cycle in-house so that our staff can check the exact status of an order in the production process at any time of the day. This allows us to stay on the ball in the event of any last-minute changes and to keep our lead times to a minimum.

The most advanced solutions on the marketWilms offers traditional built-in, surface-mounted and built-on roller shutters along with pioneering innovations developed by our wonderful Research & Development department. We patent our developments immediately to ensure that we keep a step ahead of the competition at all times.

Ease of use for everyone Wilms is a byword for consistently high quality and the greatest ease of use. Our solutions are designed to be as lightweight and manageable as possible. Any repairs are made with no reconstruction or demolition work or any inconvenience. Convenient for you and ergonomic for the installers.

Ecology at its bestAt Wilms, sustainability is always in our thoughts. One excellent example of this is our “green” paint shop. The vacuum evaporator enables us to use nothing but rainwater so we have nothing to discharge. Moreover, the production hall is heated by recovering the sanitised hot air from the process and blowing it into the hall. No less than 90% of the powders are recovered. Finally, the strategic positioning of the hall on our sites has halved the packaging material.

Our employees too can do their bit to help the environment. Wilms has a recycling point where they can dispose of old batteries, mobile phones, tabs from tin cans and bottle caps. These are then donated to local organisations which can swap them for financial support.

And so, everyone in our family-run business can help make society better.
