How solar screen shades work
Insolroll® Solar Screen Shades utilize a fabric mesh that reflects and absorb the harsh sunlight, blocking up to 97% of glare and ultraviolet rays. These PVC coated solar fabrics are incredibly durable and easy to clean.
- Solar shade fabrics are woven to precise standards
- Openness, or "density"- the amount of surface area of the fabric left open affects both view-through and performance
- 3% - 10% openness fabrics provide excellent levels of view-through in combination with excellent levels of solar performance
- Dark colored fabrics provide more glare reduction and better view-through
- Light colored fabrics provide more heat reduction and diffuse interior light.
- High performance fabrics provide excellent glare and heat reduction as well as excellent view-through regardless of color.

Exposed & Covered Roller Systems for Insolroll Shades
View Downloadable Architectural Details, Literature, & Drawings
Exposed Roller Options
In some applications, an exposed roller and operator is just what the design calls for. Designers often use this approach in lofts and spaces with a very urban, minimalist, or industrial design scheme.
- Manual Operator Exposed Roller Shades feature visible roller, brackets and clutch, cordless, or twin pull operators.
- Decorative SELECT Operator Shades feature visible roller with decorative brackets, available in 11 designer finishes.
- Motorized Exposed Roller Shades: For motorized shades, Insolroll offers designer-grade brackets and end caps to create a simple, unified and finished appearance.
Options for Covering the Roller
- Fascia System Option
Insolroll's Fascia System protects fabric when it is retracted and conceals the roller for a more clean-lined appearance than the exposed roller option. Fascia creates architectural detail, and can either blend in or stand out in your design scheme. Available inside or outside mount.
