The history of sun-breaker systems can be traced back to ancient times, when lattices, pierced screens or bamboo blinds were used to shade windows and facades, or beautiful marble screens like those of the Taj Mahal in India. But it’s pioneering master of modernist architecture Le Corbusier who updated the concept to the industrial age and invented the modern sun-breaker system installed in many of his projects in the 1930s and 1940s.
NACOTech began designing, manufacturing, selling and installing all over the world high quality sun-breaker systems in 1964 as NACO, a company owned by Australian corporation Appleton Industries and then by British Pillar.
We offer a range of products, from fixed to movable, horizontal to vertical, simple to complex, and our sun-breakers can be customized to fit any shape, size, or style of building.
By installing a sun-breaker, builders can reduce cooling costs by up to 30%, improve indoor air quality and comfort, protect furniture and fabrics from fading, add value and beauty to a public or private property.
