A New Era for Sustainable Screen Fabrics

Modern construction continues to demand energy efficient solutions, which meet the stringent standards set by the Green Building Council of Australia.

Hunter Douglas Commercial has expanded their successful Sunscreen range and introduced new fabrics that not only effectively control heat and light, but are also aesthetically pleasing.

The result: GREENSCREEN Kenetic, GREENSCREEN Duotone and GREENSCREEN Xceed. All fabrics are 100% PVC free and recyclable.

"Since 2009, our GREENSCREEN NRG 3% fabric was considered the leading environmental alternative to PVC-coated sunscreen fabrics. We have now developed this even further with three new GREENSCREEN fabrics, all which differ in functionality and aesthetics to suit various commercial applications. We are certain that we will continue to maintain our position as industry leaders in providing energy efficient fabrics."
Jenny Brown, National Marketing Manager, Hunter Douglas Commercial.
