Venetian blind integrated into an insulating glass unit is the ideal solution for a sustainable building . Depending on the environmental conditions , the contribution of this product to a more sustainable building is guaranteed in many ways :

At night , on the other hand , by closing the blind it is possible to limit heat conduction through the windows .
• Ideal management of daylight ( throughout the year ) The insulating glass unit also guarantees savings on artificial lighting thanks to the possibility of adjusting the amount of incoming daylight . Moreover , it has been demonstrated that the availability of natural light is directly proportional to living comfort and productivity in the workplace .
