ScreenLine Wave, the latest addition to our Uni-Blinds integral blinds range , represents a major innovation in shading and privacy technology because it provides an alternative Venetian or pleated blind styles for the first time.
Developed over a 10-year R&D programme by ScreenLine systems manufacturer Pellini S.p.A., Wave is a motorised shading system equipped with an ultra-thin polyester film encapsulated between the panes of glass of an IGU. Two versions are available – a white ‘dim out’ option designed to provide subtle shading and a degree of privacy or a blackout blind, which is black on the inside and grey externally.
Exclusively available from Morley Glass, ScreenLine Wave has a unique horizontal wave geometry that provides an interesting aesthetic dimension unlike any other integral blind. Its minimalist design aligns beautifully with contemporary décor based around an industrial, urban look, particularly the blackout version given its black finish internally, which has an appearance similar to a micro-perforated steel roller shutter from a distance.
Wave’s original visual appeal is backed by effective performance in respect of optimising the window or door’s thermal insulation and managing levels of solar gain. This makes the integral blind an excellent choice for windows and doors that contribute to creating more comfortable living spaces, reducing the risk of summertime overheating and helping to cut heating costs during cooler periods of the year.
A powerful motor takes care of raising and lowering the blind, controlled using a wall-mounted switch or remote control. As the blind is totally encapsulated within the IGU, it will never attract dirt, meaning it does not require cleaning and will retain its pristine appearance throughout its lifetime.
Ian Short, Managing Director of Morley Glass, commented: “ScreenLine Wave’s appeal comes with its kookiness – it is something a bit different and that’s going to catch the attention of homeowners and developers who want to make their own original design statement. As with all our Uni-Blinds, it is a system that provides the perfect combination of aesthetics, functionality and performance, with a five-year warranty for peace of mind.”
Excellent thermal performance is achieved through a combination of factors. The reflective properties of the blind’s film, which features a PVD coating, coupled with the IGU’s patented spacer bar design, maximise the integral blind’s insulating properties when combined with the high performance glass options provided by Morley Glass.
ScreenLine Wave can be used within double and triple glazed IGUs with a cavity of 20mm or 22mm. Units can be manufactured to a specification with a very low U-Value too by using Planitherm One, and for applications where the goal is to provide a high level of solar control, such as for elevations facing strong sunlight regularly, Saint-Gobain COOL-LITE SKN 176 II.
As with all Uni-Blinds integral blinds, we offer an industry-leading lead time of as little as 10-12 working days when ordered by 10am on Thursdays, and all orders are supplied with complimentary delivery.
