Being Green
The natural alternative
The Planet requires us to reduce energy usage and find ways of utilising nature to heat and cool our internal and external living space and is becoming critical as we move into the 21st century.
For many years cheap fossil fuels have resulted in us removing excess heat or warming our living spaces using unsustainable energy as a result of bad design.
The wide range of VollayTM Aluminium Shutters and Louvres allow you to now turn the sun on and off depending on the season, before it enters your living space.
Combine the environmental benefits of the VollayTM Systems with the positive impact on the building’s aesthetics/appearance and you have the ideal solution.
Add to this the clever design of VollayTM products to enable the economical use of aluminium and you are able to reap the benefits without breaking the bank.
The wide range of VollayTM shading options enable you to stop the sun before it hits the glass. Over 50% of the suns energy will travel through the glass and into your living space if the window isn’t sufficiently shaded. The days of shading a window but losing your views are gone. Using VollayTM Aluminium Shutter and Louvre Systems you can now shade your window, reduce the sun’s affect from 50% to as little as 5% while still maintaining both view and ventilation options.
Unlike many fabric shading options, ventilation is not compromised when shading is required. One also does not have to live without natural light which tends to be the case with fabric shading options.

Making your living or working environment energy efficient is not only about keeping the sun out in summer, but retaining warmth in the cooler months.
The wind and the associated cold air movement over glass can result in large amounts of valuable warm air to be leached from the internal living and working areas.
Fabric shading solutions struggle when exposed to strong winds which can result in them being damaged and rendering them inoperable. The VollayTM Aluminium Shutters and Louvres are able to protect the glass from this leaching affect.
VollayTM products are able to create a thermal barrier resulting in a dramatic reduction in thermal loss. This barrier is able to withstand strong winds, hale and rain without compromising its functionality.
Natural Light is far more advantageous in your living and working environment than artificial light and this is where VollayTM shines.
The philosophy that the VollayTM product reduces energy in-flows in summer while minimising energy loss in the colder months, makes good environmental sense.
With a range of manual and sensor driven control systems, the benefits of the VollayTM products can be enjoyed 24/7.
With the addition of the VollayTM Sun Tracking software which is in the final stages of development, we can assist in the optimum design of Shutter and Louvre systems ensuring the correct blade size, blade angle and blade spacing.
