Verl, February 2024. With the heroal VS Z fabric package, heroal offers processors and manufacturers unique shading options for new construction and renovation. Thanks to the cooperation with VEKA and Exte, the ready-to-install solution can now also be used in the Exte ELITE XT and VEKAVARIANT 2.0 PVC surface-mounted boxes and the VEKAVARIANT EPS surface-mounted insulation box. Thus, for the first time there is an option for textile shading with the surface-mounted box systems instead of shutters and blinds.
The heroal VS Z fabric package, read semi-finished was developed as a system solution with optimal benefits and consists of a ready-to-use fabric from the current heroal collection, a custom-made fabric shaft, a built-in motor from the heroal range of your choice, a pre-assembled bottom frame (type III) and all necessary accessories, such as shaft spindles and motor bearings. The ready-to-install and pre-assembled elements and their easy commissioning ensure maximum flexibility and efficiency: the heroal VS Z textile package can be installed in existing cabinets and used directly via plug-and-play. Cooperation with other tradesmen is not necessary.
The unique heroal VS Z fabric package offers processors and manufacturers for the first time the possibility of integrating an awning into surface-mounted cabinet systems. Thanks to the special bearing consoles for the heroal VS Z awning system, the pre-assembled solution can be installed in the Exte ELITE XT and VEKAVARIANT 2.0 box systems for renovation and conversion and in the VEKAVARIANT EPS surface-mounted insulation boxes for new construction. The bearing consoles move the shaft bearings forward in the direction of the screen exit and ensure that the screen fabric is fed into the guide rails as vertically as possible.
The new guide rails from VEKA and Exte were fully matched to both heroal VS Z and the manufacturers' platforms. Purchasing is done directly through both heroal partners. To perfectly match the color scheme of the building, powder-coated, pre-drilled and cut-to-size guide rails from heroal can also be ordered using the heroal configurator, which are delivered together with the fabric package. Thanks to the zipper system on the sides of the fabric, it stays nicely in the rails.
The generous maximum dimensions of the heroal VS Z fabric package, read semi-finished with a width of up to 4,500 mm, a height of up to 3,500 mm and a total surface area of up to 15 m² offer numerous design possibilities and ensure a harmonious appearance. For integration into VEKA and Exte surface-mounted cabinets, the elements can be up to 4,000 mm wide and 2,800 mm high. Control is variable, as the heroal VS Z textile package is suitable for motors from different manufacturers. Thus, the screens can be operated via wireless remote control, manually via a button on the wall or via an app. Drive solutions with pendulum or battery buffer are also available for strict safety requirements in the case of a second escape route, for example.
The application possibilities are diverse: instead of the heroal VS Z fabric package, ready-made shutter armors from heroal in various designs can be used in the surface-mounted box systems. The range of armors from heroal includes different slat and bottom frame variants in a wide range of colors.
The extensive range of colors, surfaces and cloths results in almost unlimited design freedom with the heroal VS Z textile package. The coating of the aluminum components can be matched to the color of the window, with the highly weather-resistant heroal hwr powder coating ensuring exactly the same shade, even for plastic windows. Even more choices provide the more than 250 fabrics with varying light transmission, from semi-transparent to opaque, which, depending on the type of textile, reduce solar and UV radiation by up to 100%. The plastic inlays guarantee that screen fabric always remains optimally tensioned. The systems, which are made of recycled aluminum and high-quality textiles, are weather-resistant and characterized by high material stability and exceptional durability.
