Introducing Griesser external venetian blinds: A new era in premium shading solutions

Known for innovation, sustainability, and precision engineering, Griesser’s shading solutions set a new benchmark in luxury sun control and energy efficiency.

A game-changer for energy-efficient building design

As Australia moves towards more sustainable, energy-efficient architecture, Griesser External Venetian Blinds fill a critical gap in the market, says BBPM Managing Director Simon Meyer. “External Venetian Blinds are one of the most energy-efficient shading solutions available in Australia. By controlling the angle of the slats, they reflect sunlight away before it reaches the windowpane, reducing solar heat gain by up to 93%. 

“This minimises the need for air conditioning, resulting in lower energy costs and a more comfortable indoor environment. Additionally, these blinds contribute to a 16% reduction in heating energy consumption during winter, ensuring year-round climate control and improved energy efficiency.”

Swiss engineering meets smart technology

Griesser’s reputation for premium shading solutions is built on over 140 years of Swiss engineering and precision, a tradition known worldwide for excellence, just like Swiss watches!

The brand’s External Venetian Blinds offer precision-engineered designs tailored to both residential and commercial applications, ensuring a balance of functionality and aesthetic appeal. With motorisation and wind-resistant automation features, these Blinds provide a seamless combination of comfort, energy efficiency, and long-term durability.

Lamisol Vento, a specialised model, withstands wind speeds up to 120km/h, making it ideal for high-rise applications. The multiple tilt zones allow for precise daylight management, reducing glare and improving indoor comfort.

Designed for Australian conditions and energy efficiency compliance

External Venetian Blinds play a critical role in achieving high environmental ratings for buildings in Australia. Their ability to regulate solar heat gain and optimise airflow makes them an essential component of energy-efficient designs. By preventing excessive heat absorption and reducing reliance on artificial cooling, they contribute to Green Star and other sustainable building certifications. Griesser External Venetian Blinds are not just aesthetically refined—they are built to withstand Australia’s harsh climate. The Lamisol Vento model with its superior wind resistance is an ideal solution for exposed facades and high-rise buildings. Additionally, Griesser’s ProtectPlus coating ensures long-term corrosion resistance, safeguarding performance in coastal and extreme weather environments.

Elevating sustainable achitecture

Sustainability is a core pillar of the Griesser range, with innovative shading solutions designed to reduce energy consumption. By minimising the need for artificial cooling, these blinds significantly lower carbon footprints while enhancing indoor comfort. The integration of sun sensors and automated controls ensures optimal heat and glare reduction throughout the day, providing an eco-friendly solution for contemporary architecture.
