Frequently Asked Questions
What is Briselux?
Briselux is Cierres del Hogar’s line of products designed for sun protection on building facades using metal systems such as brise-soleil or sunshades.
It is designed for buildings and architectural projects that need to control solar radiation, improve indoor comfort, allow for ventilation, and maintain an attractive façade.
What is a brise soleil?
A brise soleil is an exterior sunshade system that helps reduce direct sunlight on a building’s facade or opening.
Unlike other, more enclosed solutions, an adjustable shading system can allow light and ventilation to pass through while reducing overheating and improving the building’s performance in response to solar radiation.
For what types of projects is Briselux recommended?
Briselux can be used in residential, tertiary, and commercial buildings, public facilities, offices, hotels, public centers, multi-family housing, or projects where the facade requires solar protection without compromising ventilation, natural light, or architectural design.
It may also be useful in renovations, energy-efficiency upgrades, or projects aimed at updating a building’s exterior appearance.
What advantages does Briselux offer over conventional sun protection?
Briselux combines sun protection, ventilation, durability, and design. Even when the system is closed, it does not create a feeling of total darkness or impede air circulation.
This helps reduce direct radiation and overheating without creating the stuffy feeling that other, more opaque or less ventilated systems can cause.
Does Briselux completely block out the light?
No. Briselux is designed to filter solar radiation, not to completely darken the space. Its design allows light and ventilation to enter while reducing direct exposure to the sun.
The specific configuration of the system will depend on the model, orientation, degree of perforation, distance from the facade, and project requirements.
What models are available from Briselux?
The product sheet includes models with multiple perforations and models with windows. Each variant offers a different way to combine sun protection, ventilation, visibility, acoustic performance, and exterior design.
The choice between one model and another should be based on the orientation of the facade, the desired level of light transmission, the desired aesthetic, and the technical requirements of the project.
Does Briselux hold up well outdoors?
Yes. Briselux is designed as a metal system for facades and exterior applications. The technical data sheet includes test results related to water tightness, impact resistance, and performance as a natural ventilation system.
The final durability will depend on the material, finish, environmental exposure, maintenance, and specific installation conditions.
Can Briselux be adapted to the design of each facade?
Yes. Briselux can be customized to meet the specific needs of each project: dimensions, orientation, finish, color, material, panel type, and operating or installation system.
This makes it possible to incorporate it into new facades, renovations, or projects where sun protection must be an integral part of the building’s architectural language.
Who typically specifies or installs Briselux systems?
Briselux is aimed at architects, engineering firms, construction companies, installers, distributors, renovation companies, developers, and professionals seeking exterior sun protection solutions for building facades.
Cierres del Hogar can tailor its consultation based on the type of project, the available dimensions, the location of the job site, and the desired technical or aesthetic outcome.
