Sustainable solutions with solar-powered shutters and screens

A strong and diverse solar powered range

With more than 15 years of experience in the sector, BC Sunprotection has established itself as a solar specialist in the sun protection industry with Bubendorff's solar-powered roller shutters. The Westmalle-based company has been offering solar-powered roller shutters and screens since 2010, making it a pioneer in this field. Since the introduction of the first solar-powered roller shutter (Bubendorff 2009), it has become a new and reliable standard in the industry.

BC Sunprotection is the exclusive distributor of Bubendorff and Solaise in the Benelux and has built up a strong and diverse product range. Two of Bubendorff's most innovative and popular products are the solar shutters iD Solar and the iD Solar OR. The latter model, where OR stands for 'orientable', combines the advantages of roller shutters and sun blinds and thus offers a versatile solution for various situations. In addition to these solar roller shutters, BC Sunprotection also offers solar screens (SOLARZIP®) and horizontal roller shutters (ROLAX) for skylights, conservatories and verandas.

Bubendorff: manufacturer of finished products as well as engines for own use

A distinctive feature of Bubendorff is that the company not only produces ready-made shutters and screens, but also the associated motors that are used integrally in its own products. Jo Blommé, owner of BC Sunprotection: "The Bubendorff solarmo motors are known for their reliability and extremely quiet operation. These motors have an integrated battery, which means no extra cables are needed and the battery is optimally protected against heat and cold. With a very high capacity (expressed in Ah or ampere-hours), these motors have the highest value on the market, making them long-lasting and efficient. The solar cells, fitted with a specific glass casing instead of plastic, retain their high efficiency for much longer, which significantly extends their service life." BC Sunprotection therefore offers a seven-year warranty on both the motor, battery and solar cell.

Solaise: high-quality solar zipscreens and shutters

In addition to Bubendorff products, BC Sunprotection also offers Solaise solar products, including Solaise zipscreens, better known as SOLARZIP®. According to Blommé, these zipscreens are distinguished by their excellent quality, reliability and workmanship. "They have no visible screws, an attractive design with compact, square boxes and are available in as many as 206 RAL colors and 14 textured paint colors at no extra charge. The Solaise solar shutters are of the same high quality and reliability and the color range is identical. In addition to Bubendorff's motors, the Solaise shutters and screens can also be equipped with the latest Somfy solar RS100 io motors, which operate on both solar energy and 230 volts."

Roller shutters with automatic response to sun and heat

One of the outstanding features of Bubendorff roller shutters is their smart technology. All Bubendorff roller shutters are equipped as standard with a convenient Auto Pilot function, allowing them to react automatically to sunlight and heat. This makes them not only energy-saving, but also contributes to user comfort and safety. "We are ready to further conquer the shading market," says Blommé. "With our Bubendorff and Solaise brands, we offer a wide range of energy-efficient and modern solar shading solutions for anyone looking for the latest developments in solar shading."
