SUNAIR® offers the best mesh and acrylic fabric for your screen. More often a mesh fabric is needed because the customer desires solar protection, and still maintaining a view out of the window when the shade is lowered. Sunair® offers mesh fabrics from both Mermet and Ferrari. Both Mermet and Ferrari are mesh fabrics that offer both exceptional transparency and sun blocking capabilities. Ask your SUNAIR® dealer which mesh or acrylic fabric is best for your application.
Darker vs. lighter mesh colors:
Because darker colors absorbs light, darker colors like Bronze, Black, and Charcoal will allow better visibility through the closed fabric screen to the outside. This is important if you desire to have a nice view of the exterior through the screen fabric when it is extended. Darker colors also offer better solar protection than lighter colors.
Lighter colors are more neutral on the house, but will offer less solar protection and reflect more light. Lighter colors are therefore harder to see through when the screen is lowered. Light colors are ideal for rooms where you want to maintain a uniform amount of light in the entire room, like an office etc.
