Heat shield
/UV cut sheet
In response to the recent heatwaves and extreme temperatures caused by global warming, a single sheet of high-performance heat-shielding and UV-blocking material simultaneously blocks both infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) rays from sunlight, suppressing temperature increases without darkening the room and reducing electricity bills.
The heat shielding/UV cut sheet "F+COOL" developed by our company efficiently reflects light in the infrared (IR) region (near infrared), which accounts for approximately 50% of the energy of sunlight. It has the effect of reducing the rise in surface temperature and has a significant ultraviolet (UV) shielding effect. Upon commercialization, we obtained JIS certification as numerical evidence.
What is a heat shield/UV cut sheet "F+COOL"?
This product has been attracting attention as it has been introduced in the media as the most effective way to combat the heatwaves in ordinary homes by preventing heat rays (near-infrared rays) from entering through windows.
Feature
- By efficiently reflecting the heat (infrared rays) from the sun, the rise in surface temperature is suppressed.
- It maintains its brightness without getting dark like shoji paper.
- By using it in a place where you want to shield heat, you can suppress the rise in indoor temperature.
- By reducing the amount of electricity used, it leads to power saving and energy saving, and contributes to CO2 reduction.
- It is used in the seasons and seasons when the temperature rises, and can be removed when it is not needed (winter).
- It has been confirmed that the surface temperature can be lowered by 10 to 15 degrees and the room temperature can be lowered by 2 to 3 degrees in actual use.
- It has both heat shielding performance and ultraviolet (UV) shielding effect.
- When used on glass windows in a home, it prevents heat rays from entering, and is particularly effective when used in conjunction with an air conditioner.
* Non-woven standard type reference price
A4 (210mmx297mm): 130 yen per sheet (excluding shipping fee)

Main uses and others
- Installation on the exterior walls and windows of warehouses,
stores and houses - Use as blinds and tents
- Metal parts of swinging doors (surface temperature approx.
-15 degrees) - Air conditioner outdoor units and places exposed to direct sunlight
- On the beach, benches in parks and spectator facilities
- Rooftops, parking spaces, picnic sheets
- Also has a heat-shielding effect when laid on artificial
turf and concrete
(surface temperature approx. -15 degrees) - No insulation performance, but when used in combination
with a material with an air layer
(Air Cap foam sheet), it is even more effective

Heat shield/UV cut sheet "F+COOL"
example of use
Application to window glasses
- Easy to make at home (example)
1: tension rod, 2: Stitched or stapled
Cut the F+COOL to the appropriate size and fold over
the top and bottom and sew.
Easy to install on the window by passing a tension rod through it.
In winter, you can remove it and use it as needed.
Example) Tension rod 200 yen (2 pieces)
+ heat shielding sheet 300 yen (0.2 square meters)
By using products that can be purchased at 100 yen shops,
you can reduce costs and get great results if used in combination.
Air conditioner outdoor unit cover
- Easy to make at home (example)
1: Folded back, 2: Double-sided tape
Cut the F+COOL to fit the size of the top plate of the outdoor unit
and attach it with double-sided tape.
By significantly improving the efficiency of air conditioning
in the summer, it will lead to a reduction in utility bills.
Example: Double-sided tape 100 yen
+ heat shielding sheet 420 yen (0.28 square meters)
By using products that can be purchased at 100 yen shops,
you can reduce costs and get great results
if you use them well together.
Application to tarps
1: Eyelet processing, 2: Sewing
Process F+COOL to the appropriate size by joining them, etc.,
then fold and sew the top, bottom, left and right sides.
Additionally, you can easily create a tarp by cutting grommets
into the four corners and securing them with strings.
You can remove it on rainy days or during winter and use it
as needed.
Application to Japanese umbrellas
Size(diameter): 60cm, 86cm (photo shows 60cm)
By using F+COOL as a Japanese umbrellas,
you can expect significant heat shielding and UV protection effects.
We can custom-make Japanese umbrellas in any design
and size (2 types) for orders of 10 or more.
