SHADING CO-EFFICIENT
The solar heat gain with the blind at the window divided by the solar heat gain with no blind at the window. The lower the shading co-efficient, therefore, the higher the efficiency of the fabric. The test results in the table above have been achieved using a single 6mm glass glazing system.

G TOT
A measure of total solar energy that passes through the glazing system and the blind fabric.
