Daylight that teaches, glare that doesn't.
Even daylight on the work plane, glare off the screens, and durable systems that take daily use across a campus.
What SUNX brings to education.
TENZA · SUNZIP — To the opening
InteriorTall / inclined glassPer opening
Flat, guided screens for the tall windows and atria common to campus buildings.
BLOCK-X — Blackout
Full blackoutMotorized
Full darkening for lecture halls, AV rooms and projection spaces.
SYNC — Open automation
Scheduled / zonedOpen integration
Zoned, scheduled operation that integrates with the campus building-management system.
Automated shading, measured.
Field-measured cooling savings
U.S. Department of Energy field studies found whole-building summertime cooling savings of 15–25% from optimized high-efficiency shades, interior and exterior.
U.S. DOE / PNNL — Building America
Occupied office tower, 10 months
A ten-month study in an occupied high-rise measured a 25% drop in energy use across heating and cooling seasons with motorized insulating shades; most occupants preferred them to the old blinds.

The air gap as active R-value
A peer-reviewed study of automated interior insulating shades recorded up to 20.5% daily energy reduction under automated control, projecting 20–35% savings vs. baseline.
Energy (Elsevier), 2024 — weather-normalized analysis
Findings from independent third-party research, cited as industry context. They describe what automated shading can do as a category — not a measured performance claim for any SUNX product. Outcomes vary with climate, glazing, fabric and control strategy.
