The Luxa 100M is the large-format ZIP screen designed for expansive glass facades, floor-to-ceiling windows, and commercial curtain walls. With a maximum single-panel area of 6,000 mm × 5,000 mm (30 m²), it is the largest ZIP screen in the Alcodec range.
Double-reinforced ZIP rail guides handle the increased fabric tension of oversized panels. Somfy IO motor with integrated wind and sun sensors. Compatible with KNX, Modbus, and BACnet building management protocols.
Specifically engineered for office buildings, hotels, hospitals, and retail facades where large glass surfaces create significant solar heat gain. External g-value reduction: from 0.6 to below 0.08 with blackout fabric.

APPLICATIONS

The hand-crank ZIP screen offers the same wind resistance and solar blocking as motorised models at lower cost. No electrical connection needed — ideal for garden walls, gazebos, and structures without power.
Stop the crank at any height for partial shading. The mechanism holds position without locking — fabric stays exactly where you set it.

When electrical modifications aren't permitted or practical, the manual crank system provides professional-grade exterior shading. Mount on any surface without electrical planning.
Popular for heritage buildings where visible electrical conduit would conflict with conservation requirements.

For winter garden glass surfaces.
