Slovenia – Aluminium Sunbreakers System for Solar Shading

For our client – the Faculty of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering and the Faculty of Computer and Information Science – Soltec developed and implemented a custom-designed aluminium brise-soleil system.

Installed on the façades of the buildings, the horizontal louvre system offers effective protection against direct sunlight while allowing ample natural daylight into the interiors. The carefully calibrated orientation and angle of the blades ensure an optimal balance between shading, ventilation, and visual transparency – enhancing both the building’s energy efficiency and indoor comfort.

The aluminium blades are weather-resistant and maintenance-free, making them a sustainable long-term solution for public buildings. Their clean, modern aesthetic complements the architecture and reinforces the visual identity of the campus.

The project was realised through close collaboration with architects and the investor, showcasing Soltec’s ability to deliver customised solutions for complex architectural needs.

The facade has a size of 6000 m2 and includes 70 tons of steel and 80 tons of aluminum. The facade of the automatic control provides effective protection against overheating of the object, but the rooms are well lit with natural high transparency. We have taken a holistic approach to the project.

Students and professors of the faculty can now enjoy the safe shade of Soltec’s dynamic façade.
