METRA Sunblades The contemporary and evolved style that the METRA Sunblades system is capable of offering is truly extraordinary. The new Sunblades series is more than a simple instrument for sun protection: its application goes from the building to the private house and aesthetically improves almost any architectural form. Any habitat typology becomes rewarding and more liveable given the choice between light, shadow and dark, at any time of the day and with great ease. The simple insertion of photovoltaic panels onto the blades produces clean energy with a low environmental impact. The Sunblades...

METRA Quality Purchasing METRA trademark profiles and accessories gives the security of using materials that guarantee the highest performances and durability. METRA systems have been certified by the most important European test laboratories, reaching results at the highest levels. Take no substitute, demand original profiles, easily recognizable by mark “M” present on the internal part of the windows and on each accessory. Remember that the accessory is integrating part of the system and only with the original accessories marked METRA you can obtain high performances. Moreover, METRA is one...

The METRA solution is characterised by a unique 1 - Made of extruded aluminium, of elliptical section and constructive principle, which gives birth to 13 typologies, different widths: 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400 and 450 covering all construction possibilities: mm, supplied in rods of 6500 mm length. an extruded aluminium blade, two stainless steel pivots inserted into the central part of the blade and fixed into place by the aluminium side caps, in order to take advantage of all available finishings. 2 - Aluminium or steel sheet with flat or curved section, different thicknesses...

Mullions Made of extruded aluminium, supplied in rods of 6500 mm length. Solutions: • For substructure, mullions with reduced section. • For curtain walls, mullions with variable section for high static performance. • For unit structure, mullions able to be coupled. Transmission In designing a building, it is fundamentally important to determine the level of natural light. The transmission system is capable of piloting the blades with variable inclinations and has been designed to be compact and effective. An optimal level of comfort inside the building it is thus guaranteed. Undoubtedly the...

Solar protection In order to move from a traditional system of sun protection to an ideal one, it is not enough simply to incorporate a sunblades system into the building wall. It is also necessary to consider an important parameter: Solar protection plays an ever more important role in designing living and work spaces. The final objective is to use the available resources in an optimal and intelligent way, guaranteeing a higher level of internal comfort, optimising the use of solar energy so as to reduce energy consumption as far as possible, at the same time satisfying the requirements of daylight...

Solar protection and yield The integration of photovoltaic panels into the screening elements enables the screening function of the sunblades into energy production. The correct design of photovoltaic sun screening enables the best use of solar contributions when they involve advantages and helps to eliminate or minimise them when they may be damaging, avoiding overheating during the summer and guaranteeing the efficient use of natural light in winter. The METRA profile for photovoltaic sunblades enables the application of unframed, laminated photovoltaic panels with a thickness of up to 8 mm, 350...
