Horizontal Sunbreaker

Horizontal sunbreakers are fixed slats designed to block high-angle sunlight, commonly made from aluminum and available in widths between 100mm and 200mm. These systems are tested for wind resistance and structural stability, ensuring reliable performance on sun-exposed facades. By minimizing heat gain and allowing ample natural light, they reduce reliance on artificial cooling and lighting, enhancing energy efficiency. Constructed from recyclable materials and treated for weather resistance, they align with sustainable building practices and meet fire safety requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

A horizontal sunbreaker consists of fixed aluminium slats installed on the exterior of a building to block high-angle sunlight, reduce solar heat gain, and minimise glare, helping maintain comfortable indoor environments throughout the day.

The system typically includes slats available in widths between 100 mm and 200 mm, giving designers flexibility to balance sun control, light penetration, and visual rhythm on façades.

Yes. The sunbreaker is made from recyclable aluminium and treated for weather resistance, which aligns with eco-friendly construction practices and helps reduce environmental impact.

By reducing heat gain from direct sunlight, horizontal sunbreakers can lower building cooling demands and reduce reliance on artificial air conditioning — contributing to enhanced energy efficiency.

Absolutely. Alüm™ Horizontal Sunbreakers are tested for wind resistance and structural stability, ensuring they perform reliably on sun-exposed façades even under challenging weather conditions.
