Protect PLUS

Product catalog summary

Introduction
Protect PLUS is an innovative solution by Griesser designed to enhance the protection of venetian blinds against filiform corrosion, particularly in challenging environments such as coastal areas or urban settings with high pollution levels. This product aims to extend the service life of blinds both visually and mechanically by providing greater resistance to environmental damage.

Specifications
Protect PLUS involves the application of a transparent and highly effective primer directly onto raw aluminum slats, ensuring optimal bonding with the outer paint layer. This additional coating significantly reduces the development of filiform corrosion, which can occur beneath powder coatings in certain conditions.

Product Compatibility
Protect PLUS is available for the following Griesser products: Metalunic, Grinotex, Lamisol, and Solomatic. Each product benefits from specific enhancements:

Metalunic: Nickel-plated chains replace standard types, and components such as housing and guide rails receive a baked enamel finish.
Grinotex: Similar enhancements as Metalunic, with additional baked enamel finishes on various components.
Lamisol III and Solomatic II: Additional coating on slats and stove-enamelled finishes on end rails and support channels.

Maintenance and Care
While Protect PLUS offers enhanced protection, it is not a substitute for regular cleaning and maintenance. Users should adhere to Griesser's product care guidelines as specified in the operating instructions.

Standards and Compliance
With the Protect PLUS option, the products meet the EN 13659:2015 standards for Protection class corrosion C4, ensuring maximum protection against environmental influences.

Conclusion
Protect PLUS provides an invisible yet effective guard for venetian blinds, ensuring a longer service life and maintaining aesthetic quality. It is particularly beneficial in environments prone to causing filiform corrosion.
