Making it easier for Customers to choose solar protection products
Nothing is more important to life on earth than sunlight. Yet, equally essential to human beings is the need to seek shade from the sun.
At Almedahls Solutions, we believe that professional and private customers are fundamentally seeking to manage daylight sustainably. We also believe that many customers are finding solar protection products complex and hard to navigate. Perhaps because the industry has not focused on making the products easy to choose.
We believe that making product choice easier is a growth opportunity for our customers.
For our TAME THE LIGHT – FABRICS WITH PURPOSE collection we are introducing a product navigation built entirely on end-customer needs. This navigation transcends the traditional, somewhat esoteric, product definitions and boundaries in the solar protection industry.
We have sought to make the translation from customer need to product solution as easy, intuitive, and accessible as possible.
Our fabrics are all arranged along an axis of daylight control. From light filtering in one end of the scale to room darkening at the other.
Easy to grasp, and a key to unlocking growth by making our products more accessible.
