Inflector - A see-through window insulator

Windows are critical for day lighting and ventilation, but they are also the weakest part of the building envelop in terms of heat transfer. Studies have shown that comfort, health and productivity are improved in a stable thermal environment.
    
Whilst new technology in respect of the types of window materials used, has reduced heat transfer, issues still remain. This is particularly true for older buildings where retrofitting of new windows is not an option. There are also problems in both old and new buildings in terms of glare, ultraviolet and infrared control, which all impact upon the working and living environment.
    
Inflector is the ultimate solution to window replacement as it transforms existing poorly-insulated windows into energy efficient windows.
    
Originally designed by NASA for window shielding of the space shuttle, Inflector aims to enhance the performance of windows and improve the thermal comfort of tenants. Less energy is consumed by air-conditioning/heating, thereby considerably reducing the carbon footprint.
    
Unlike other internal shading devices which often block views from a window, Inflector's distinctive perforated material enables light to enter your building, while at the same time blocking harmful ultraviolet rays, glare and unwanted heat.
    
In addition, with its unique two-sided coating, Inflector is also reversible for year round thermal comfort control.

Inflector offers a wide range of features which can improve the working and living environment:
, Eco-friendly: re-useable, recyclable, BRE approved and qualifies for 9 LEED points
, Effectively transparent
, Minimises heat gain in summer
, Reduces thermal loss in winter
, Stabilises room temperature and provides thermal comfort
, Reflects damaging UV rays and reduces glare
, Reduces utility cost





Inflector can be specified and custom-made in many different forms of rollers, blinds or fixed panels to meet your specific architectural design requirements. For more infromation of Inflector, please contact: Jebsen Building Products Ltd. Tel: (852) 3180 3330
