Sunscreen – Baguette / Louvers

Adding Thermal Comfort & Visual Appeal...

As sustainable architecture continues to call on sunscreen systems as an integral part of the solution for energy-efficient design, natural clay sunscreen products are gaining increased prominence over other louver systems to shade glazing and curtain wall sections. The ideal solution for applications with large portions of glass and glazing, terracotta sunscreens can provide natural thermal comfort for the interior while still letting in needed natural light. Gone are the days of small windows and with the architectural evolution of sweeping glazing and large, light-filled spaces, the need for sunscreens has never been greater.

Terra5 sunscreens come in 4 classic baguette sizes and 4 different louvers.  They are able to be twisted and/or curved to address the most complex designs. 

Crafted with the same precision and quality as the Terra5 product line, our terracotta sunscreen profile shapes (baguettes and louvers) are available in 16 standard colors – an ideal complement to your TC18 or TC30 design. 

Custom shapes are also available as well as a full standard range of colors and glazed options. With Terra5 Terracotta Sunscreens, the opportunity to design for thermal comfort and still provide a unique aesthetic is at your fingertips!
