WoodN engineered wood sunshades guarantee a perfect aesthetic result, as evidenced by the fascinating play of colors of the façade. WoodN created a sunshade profile for the occasion, customer-designed by the D2U architecture firm, featuring a new mounting system. The JF35068 WoodN sunshades made of engineered wood guarantee perfect panel adaptability, through declinations that meet the unique functional needs of the interior spaces.
