heroal VS Z corner solution

Zip-guided sun protection for all-glass corners

The subtle sun protection system heroal VS Z corner solution is perfectly suited for shading the corner area of windows and sliding/lifting-sliding doors. As it consists of two textile screens with zip guidance at the sides and an unobtrusive rope guidance in the corner area, this system is also particularly suited for all-glass corners. If no sun protection is required, the textile screen disappears in the panel box, providing for unobstructed panoramic views. With a maximum width of 3 m and a maximum height of 3 m, an area of up to 9 m2 can be created per textile screen. To be able to adjust them to the position of the sun, the textile screens can be controlled independently of each other.

Thanks to the successful combination of innovative shading and sophisticated design, the heroal VS Z corner solution was awarded the R+T Innovation Award 2024 and the German Design Award 2025 in the “Excellent Product Design” category.

  • From almost transparent to blackout (up to 98 %)
  • Protection from glare, prying eyes, heat, UV radiation
  • Independent control of both textile screens

    Sustainability

    Sun protection systems provide for healthy living and working conditions. They create a pleasant room climate on hot days and help to save air conditioning and heating costs, as the heat flow can be individually controlled as needed. Sun protection systems from recycled aluminium and high-quality textiles are resistant to the elements and stand out for their high material stability and extreme durability.

    Comfort

    The heroal VS Z corner solution offers ideal protection from glare, prying eyes, heat and UV radiation for all-glass corners. The screens are guided via separate end strips, both running in just one rope guidance in the corner area and separate "zip guide rails" at the sides. That means that they can be independently controlled and individually adapted to the position of the sun. The heroal VS Z corner solution can be controlled at the push of a button on a remote control, via a manual switch on the wall, or via an app. Also, the textile screens can be integrated into a Smart Home system. In order to provide for protection from insects in addition to protection from glare, heat and prying eyes, the heroal VS Z corner solution can be combined with insect doors or stentering frames.

    Design

    The sun protection with subtle stainless steel rope guidance can be unobtrusively integrated and provides for unobstructed views through all-glass corners. The aluminium parts of the heroal VS Z corner solution are coated with the highly weather-resistant heroal hwr powder coating – for perfect colour uniformity with heroal systems for windows, doors, sliding doors, curtain walls and canopies. Choose the best fabric design for your application from a range of selected textiles.
