Architectural Solar Control & Shading
Effective solar control isn’t just about blocking sunlight—it’s about optimizing it. BlueLine’s architectural sunscreen solutions help reduce solar heat gain, control glare, and enhance occupant comfort without sacrificing design intent. From large-span canopies to precisely angled sunshades, our systems deliver functional performance and architectural appeal in one integrated solution.

Canopies
Canopies provide large-scale solar shading while creating inviting transitions between indoor and outdoor spaces. BlueLine offers structural and ornamental canopies that are engineered to manage solar exposure, reduce heat gain at glazing points, and define entrances and gathering spaces with bold architectural expression.
Solar Heat Reduction
Shields high-glazing areas from direct sunlight, minimizing interior heat gain and reducing HVAC loads.
Enhance Building Entry
Frames entrances with striking architectural detail while improving comfort and coverage in entry zones.
Structural Integrity
Fabricated with aluminum or steel components built to withstand weather, wind, and snow loads.
Seamless Design Integration
Engineered for coordination with curtain walls, storefronts, and cladding systems to maintain visual continuity.
Sunshades
Sunshades are a precise tool for passive solar control—reducing glare, lowering cooling costs, and adding dimensional design to the building exterior. BlueLine’s architectural sunscreen systems include horizontal and vertical blades in a range of depths, profiles, and finishes—customizable to project location and sun angles.
