Fuji Chemi Trading’s high-performance heat shielding/UV cut sheet that simultaneously blocks infrared rays (IR) and ultraviolet rays (UV) from sunlight, suppresses temperature rise without darkening, and reduces 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.

What is a heat shield/UV cut sheet “F+COOL”?

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.

Main uses

Laying on the window glass of a house
Laying on rooftops, balconies, etc.
Composite with sheet metal outer wall material
Use as a tent or tarp fabric
In addition, use in places where heat measures are required

Heat shield/UV cut sheet “F+COOL”example of use

Application to window glasses

1: tension rod, 2: sewing 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.

Air conditioner outdoor unit cover

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 the 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.

Heat shield/UV cut sheet “F+COOL” effect

*The following verification tests are all in-house evaluations

Application to automobiles

Dashboard / F+COOL non-woven fabric type
(July 2023, sunny weather, temperature 29 degrees Celsius)

F+COOL Installed on the left side of the dashboard –

Surface temperature: Dashboard part 55 degrees Celsius / F+COOL part 45 degrees Celsius

The surface temperature difference is about 10 degrees Celsius, which improves the efficiency of air conditioners, and is even more effective if infrared cut glass is not used

Laying on a park bench

Wooden bench / F+COOL non-woven fabric type
(July 2023, sunny weather, temperature 29 degrees Celsius)

Surface temperature: Normal part 45 degrees Celsius / F+COOL part 39 degrees Celsius

Park benches have a heat shielding effect of about 6 degrees Celsius, and resin and metal benches are expected to be even more effective

Application to window glass

1.Workplace window / F+COOL non-woven fabric type
(July 2023, sunny weather, temperature 28 degrees Celsius)

F+COOL work place right window pasting –

Surface temperature: Normal part 37 degrees Celsius / F+COOL 34 degrees Celsius

The surface temperature difference is about 3 degrees Celsius, and the effect of suppressing the rise in room temperature has been confirmed.

2. Office window / F+COOL non-woven fabric type

(July 2023, sunny weather, temperature 32 degrees Celsius) [Installing F+COOL on the window Measure the temperature of the floor (carpet) where sunlight enters]

Floor surface temperature: Normal part 36 degrees Celsius / F+COOL 32 degrees Celsius

The temperature difference on the floor surface is about 4 degrees Celsius, Confirming the effect on the floor where sunlight enters

The temperature difference on the floor surface is about 4 degrees Celsius, Confirming the effect on the floor where sunlight enters
It is said that changing the temperature of the air conditioner by just 1 degree Celsius will change the electricity bill by 10 to 13%,
and a temperature difference of 3 degrees Celsius
is expected to reduce the electricity bill by about 30%.

Laying on artificial turf

Surface temperature: Artificial turf 71 degrees Celsius / F+COOL 56 degrees Celsius

The surface temperature difference is about 15 degrees Celsius, and it is expected to be applied to leisure sheets, etc

Application to parasols

Outside

Left: General parasol / Right: F+COOL parasol –

Surface temperature: General parasol 57 degrees Celsius / F+COOL parasol 35 degrees Celsius

The umbrella surface temperature difference is about 22 degrees Celsius

Inside

Left: F+COOL parasol / Right: General parasol –

Artificial turf temperature: General parasol 45 degrees Celsius / F+COOL parasol 32 degrees Celsius

The surface temperature difference of the shadow of the parasol (artificial turf) is about 13 degrees Celsius, which is effective in reducing the heat of the user
