Sun Glow News for APRIL 2009
|
|
Dear michael,
We are very excited to tell you about two immediate additions
to our product line: SUN GLOW SUNSCREEN™, excellent quality at
a lower price point and PURE SCREEN™, a fabric that
cleans the air.
We
attended R&T in Stuttgart where we sourced some new
products. We are still investigating these new products and will
introduce them to you as soon as possible. We also viewed
product releases from our current suppliers - Phifer, Rollease and
Somfy - which are described below.
Sun
Glow made a donation of window treatments to the RED DOOR Shelter this
year. This charity, impressed me with the substantial
contribution they make to society. Read the full story with
before and after pictures - we even managed to work in some GRAPHIC
SHADES.
As always, I welcome your comments and suggestions.
Our offices will be closed on Good Friday, Friday April 10, 2009.
Have a Happy Easter
Sincerely,
Vivian
Kanargelidis
President

after January 27, 2009.
The
15-per-cent credit may be claimed on the portion of eligible

A FABRIC THAT CLEANS THE AIR
INTRODUCING PURE
SCREEN ™
 Pure Screen™ is a sun
control fabric that actually cleans the air. A special coating on the
fabric enables it to accumulate harmful gases and bad odors on it´s
surface and converts them in a catalytic process into harmless
substances such as water (H20) and carbon dioxide(CO2).
Ideal for long term
care facilities, hospitals, hotels, restaurants, residential
settings, and anywhere elevated levels of airborne irritants and
chemicals exist.

INTRODUCING NEW SUN GLOW
SUNSCREEN™
We are proud to
introduce SUN GLOW SUNSCREEN™. Sunscreen demand has been
increasing as it has become the standard in commercial applications
and is also increasingly being used in residential
applications.
In response to our dealer demand for a sunscreen at a lower price
point, we have found a product that we are confident in and know will
meet the demands of our discriminating dealers.
We currently stock Sun Glow Sunscreen™ in 3% (SG3) and a matching 5%
(SG5) openness in two popular colours, Stone and Linen.
Both are available in 63", 78", and 98" width rolls of
33 linear yards. The composition is 72% PVC and 28%
polyester. The fabric is fire retardant, antimicrobial, and is
light weight at 15.34 gs/sq. yd. Additional colours and
openness factors will be added to Sun Glow Sunscreen™ in the coming
months. If you would like to receive some samples, email Dawn.

What's New at R&T
PHIFER
Phifer had numerous changes. The items mentioned below will not
be effective until after the window covering show in May, but more
realistically, later in the summer. To find out more about what's new
with Phifer click here.
SOMFY
Somfy has been making changes and even adding some new
items to their already comprehensive automation product line.
We've known since last year that the new Decoflex WireFree RTS would
be replacing the Decora Wall Switch, but not many are familiar with
their URTSI (Universal RTS Inferface) and Sunis Indoor WireFree RTS.
To find out more about what's new with Somfy click here.
ROLLEASE
RollEase has added more depth to their Skyline series by
introducing several new Skyline items and by updating several of
their existing items. To find out more about what's new with
the Skyline series click here.
