WHY SOLINEAR
All Solinear architectural louvres, solar shading systems, and bespoke fabrications are designed in strict accordance with current BS/EN standards and industry best practices. Upon request, we provide structural design calculations in summary format for client review or as part of a project’s load-bearing requirements, ensuring full compatibility with the building’s structural integrity.
We utilise the latest CAD modelling software, operated by our highly skilled and certified design team, who play a crucial role in our business workflow. Solinear holds BIM Level 2 compliance and offers free, downloadable BIM packages from our dedicated BIM library page.
With a commitment to precision, compliance, and innovation, Solinear continues to push the boundaries of solar shading design to deliver solutions that are both functional and visually striking.
