How heroal solutions support a healthy room climate
People spend a majority of their lives in buildings. It is therefore all the more important that these places offer a healthy room climate and promote well-being. In view of this, the term “healthy living“ has become established in recent years. heroal solutions for both the building shell and interior and exterior rooms have a direct impact on the healthy environments our living spaces provide. heroal, among other products, offers versatile solutions for ventilation and sun protection systems. Also, large glass surfaces can be created for more light and transparency, thanks to the high-quality aluminium system solutions for windows, doors and curtain walls.
What characterises healthy living?
Pleasant room climate
Protection from heat, glaring light and the rays of the sun, ventilation concepts and efficient thermal insulation are the basis for a pleasant room climate and a restful sleep.
Ideal lighting conditions
Large glass surfaces create light, open rooms, and have a positive impact on our mood and immune system. Adapted sun protection systems provide for glare-free views.
Sound insulation
Noise is not only annoying, but can make us ill. The installation of soundproof windows and doors regulates the adverse effect of outside noise, allows us to have a more restful sleep at night and also reduces stress.
Our solutions
Ventilation concepts
Fresh air low in pollutants and with sufficient moisture has a significant impact on our well-being and health. Today’s energy efficient building shells are often so tightly sealed that a sufficient air exchange cannot be ensured by occasionally opening the windows.
heroal window rebate ventilation
The heroal window rebate ventilation for heroal windows provides for fresh air supply to interior rooms and at the same time prevents excessive moisture levels and the formation of mould. It is invisible with the window closed, and operates purely mechanically, because of the different pressure inside the building.
Ventilation flap heroal W 72 VF
The ventilation flap heroal W 72 VF is designed as a narrow, floor-to-ceiling pivoting element or a horizontally tilting element (fanlight), and can either be operated manually via a handle, or as motorised variant, automatically via a wall switch or a smart home system.
Low-emission products for healthy indoor air
heroal guarantees excellent indoor air quality with its tested window, door and façade systems, which are classified as particularly low-emission (class A+), and thus meets both German, Belgian and French requirements for health and environmentally friendly building products.
Lots of light and ideal use of daylight
Daylight is important for our health and well-being, especially in the winter months, when it is difficult to have sufficient natural light. Large glass surfaces of windows or sliding doors create rooms flooded with light and turn your home into a bright living space, so that you can enjoy the pleasant effect of light, as a source of energy for your body and soul.
heroal panoramic sliding doors
Balcony and patio doors from heroal create interior rooms flooded with light, thanks to large glazing and at the same time slim face widths of the profiles. The innovative frame design of the lifting-sliding door heroal S 77 SL creates maximum transparency with the minimum profile face width of the fixed frame glazing.
Floor-to-ceiling windows from heroal
Aluminium windows from heroal save precious energy, effectively protect against street noise and ambient noise, and allow for lots of daylight in your home; thanks to large overall widths, a high glass ratio and slim profiles.
Glass curtain wall
With a heroal curtain wall, large glass surfaces can be combined with subtle mullion designs. In order to create maximum transparency, the glass design curtain wall heroal C 50 GD uses glass fins which replace the conventional aluminium mullions.
Protection against the summer heat
The summers of recent years have been the hottest ever recorded. At the same time, there is a trend towards large glass surfaces in architecture, which heat up interior rooms. In order to keep the temperature indoors at a pleasant level without using air conditioning systems, heroal has developed textile sun protection solutions ensuring effective protection against sun and heat.
Textile sun protection with heroal zip screens
As a sun protection installed outside, the textile screen heroal VS Z reflects the rays of the sun before they even hit the glass and this way prevents the interior room from heating. A wide range of more than 250 standard textiles provides for both aesthetically appealing and functional shading solutions.
Protection against sun and heat with heroal roller shutters
For a perfect protection against the heat and a lower air conditioning requirement in the summer, roller shutters from heroal effectively shade glass surfaces. The foam-filled aluminium roller shutter slats provide for thermal efficiency and at the same time for enhanced sound insulation.
Outdoor Living: nature as a green retreat
Patio canopies provide for a “green extension“ of your living spaces to the outside. The patio canopy system heroal OR can be equipped with different supplementary systems: the sliding glass wall system heroal S 20 C allows you to use your patio canopy as a summer garden year-round. In order to be protected from the sun and UV radiation on hot days, the horizontal awning heroal HS and the vertical awning heroal VS Z OR can be added, creating a harmonious look.

Carefully chosen materials and colours

85 % recycled aluminium
Sustainable materials free of pollutants are an important aspect of a healthy living environment. heroal uses up to 85 % recycled aluminium for its system solutions – without any loss in quality or durability.
