Same protection, new name
Our proven technology for protecting RENOLIT high-performance films for outdoor use is getting a new name. Solar Shield Technology (SST) is now called SolShield (SST). Nothing will change in the product and will still offer brand-leading protection for your exterior applications and it will still come as standard with all RENOLIT exterior films.
SST is a technology developed by RENOLIT to protect the film from excessive heating by solar radiation. The reflective colour pigments prevent the absorption of the sun’s heat-generating infrared radiation, reflecting it back in a targeted manner, significantly reducing the temperature build-up. The result is it slows down the aging process of the film and building components. This means that even with dark colours being used in warmer climates, the profiles remain dimensionally stable and windows stay airtight for longer, thus improving energy efficiency.Additionally, the transparent top layer of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) protects the colours and designs from fading because of the UV radiation or other weather influences.
This technology has undergone rigorous weather exposure tests in accordance with ASTM G173 (TSR value), RAL-GZ 716 and DIN EN 410 (reflection values) demonstrate that RENOLIT EXOFOL films meet the requirements of the RAL quality standards.
Even in the most UV intensive climate, films maintain their colour quality throughout the product life due to the multi-layered structure. So whether it’s desert or coastal, SST is suitable for all climates.
