Aluminum sun visors are commonly used in the design of buildings and large facilities to reduce the effect of sunlight and reduce the heat generated by it. Sunbreaks are usually installed on the south, east or west sides of a building to direct solar light and reduce excess solar heating inside the building, thus contributing to improved energy efficiency and energy savings.
The shapes and designs of aluminum sun visors vary according to the needs of the architectural design and the local climate. Some examples of aluminum sunshade designs include flat panels that are angled, rotating fans that reflect light in a specific direction, and curved reflective panels that precisely direct and reflect light away from the target area.
