Independent solar power for outdoor blinds
Solar panels are no longer intended only for solar power plants, large companies or the roofs of family houses. Today, every outdoor blind, screen roller blind and, recently, even an exterior roller blind can have a small solar panel.

Zero energy consumption

Shading technology with external solar power is a unique and fully automated roller shutter that is wirelessly controlled and has zero electricity consumption. This roller shutter works on the principle of the so-called photovoltaic effect - i.e. the conversion of sunlight into electrical energy. This is the most ecological and energy-efficient drive solution for roller shutters. The drive is powered by a long-life battery recharged by a solar panel that works in all weather conditions. So you don't have to worry that the product will stop working when the sun goes down. The panel supplies energy even when the sky is cloudy.

Use in an ever-increasing range of ISOTRA products

The use of solar panels for outdoor blinds is already a kind of standard. It can be used for all ISOTRA external blinds. The only limitation is the area up to 8 m2. Immediately after the blinds, screen blinds came into the picture, where two blinds are offered - ALFA-ZIP and HR8-ZIP. The novelty is the use of solar panels for outdoor blinds Vivera and Vivera Sectra! For blinds, the limitation is that they can only be used for a square box.

NEW on the Market: Aluminium ARTOSI Carport
Since 2019, when we presented our bestseller, the ARTOSI bioclimatic aluminium pergola, at Coneco Building Trade Fair in Bratislava, the whole system has undergone many improvements and various accessories were added to it, such as LED lighting, ALFA-ZIP and ALFA-ZIP PLUS screen roller shutters, and ARTOSI GLASS sliding panels. But now we are taking innovation to a whole new level by perfectly matching the pergola and a carport on the same property thanks to our new product on the market – the ARTOSI Carport.
