Soltis Loop Sunmate
Serge Ferrari Group has developed a solar-protection textile made entirely (coating included) of recycled post-consumer polyester and polymer waste. This doesn’t compromise on performance, however. The new material, named Soltis Loop Sunmate, filters in a surprising amount of light while preventing glare and blocking up to 91% of solar heat. Created for fabricating roller shades, vertical blinds, and track panels, it is available in eight neutral colorways.

The CRL Palisades S90 Bi-Folding Door has a maximum frame height of 12' and a slim 4¾" vertical sight line. Panel rails of 1⁷/16" reduce visible hardware. When closed, door hinges are completely concealed to deliver a streamlined look. The bottom rolling system, which comes in five standard configurations, eliminates strain on the overhead beam and provides superior thermal and structural performance using a 3½" depth.

Acrovyn Curved Door
Created out of a need for extended sight lines and space savings, particularly in health-care settings, the design of this curved door was developed through a collaboration between Skanska and Perkins&Will. The radius allows for less wall space, providing a smaller footprint in congested areas, and the rounded edges offer better protection against impact.

CrossingGard with ThreatProtect
Ideal for educational and medical facilities, this system creates lockdown zones within a building when a hostile-event alarm is triggered, or opens to allow freedom of movement in the event of a fire alarm. It installs like a standard rolling door but has wiring that creates a direct line of communication from the response plan’s central command to the grille or door itself. It includes a battery backup for continuous operation during a power outage.
