IMK Automotive – Enhancing Workplace Comfort with Exterior Blinds

IMK Automotive, a specialist in crafting interiors for Aston Martin vehicles, faced significant heat challenges in their factory. The large windows, combined with extensive machinery made the working environment uncomfortably hot for employees. The company considered installing air conditioning but due to the high cost and disruption it would cause, looked around for another way to solve the problem. They reached out to Kensington Blinds for an exterior shading solution.

Following a thorough site assessment, Kensington Blinds installed Renson exterior blinds on the windows at each end of the factory. These high-performance blinds were selected with a dark fabric to minimise heat gain while maintaining visibility and natural light. By deflecting sunlight before it enters the building, the blinds have successfully reduced indoor temperatures to a comfortable level, creating a better working environment for employees.

The installation of Renson exterior blinds has provided IMK Automotive with an energy-efficient and easily adjustable solution. Controlled via a remote system, the blinds can be raised or lowered as needed, offering flexibility throughout the day. This project demonstrates how strategic shading solutions can enhance workplace comfort while supporting environmental and operational efficiency goals.
