Mechoshade Shading Systems is the grandfather of the Industry. Mechoshade considers itself as a technical company that happens to be in the business of shading. In the early 1970s, energy conservation initiatives were emerging, and their revolutionary software-controlled, automated-shading system was created. A building operator could now reduce their reliance on electrical lighting by better controlling natural light—while requiring little-to-no action from the building occupants. They essentially developed the technology for minute-to-minute solar-ray predictions and BTU loads on windows where their automated shades responded to these factors, rather than timers or sensors alone.

Since that time, Mechoshade has introduced many innovations including the most recent launch of the 6th generation manual operator “M5x” which is one of the heaviest rated clutches in the shading market today. The “Magnashade” – one continuous shade up to approximately 40 ft. (12m) wide by 20 ft. (6.1m) high. They have also been developing and patenting their own motors and electronics to create shading architecture that is inferior to any of their closest competitors. Other innovations, (with the help of Dr. William McDonough – Cradle to Cradle) include the development of their own line of infinitely recyclable shading cloths called “Ecoveil” in a range of opacities from 1 to 5% open.

Today, Mechoshade Shading Systems offers residential clients, contractors, designers and architects one of the most diverse shading systems available today. It boils down to a premium product at a fractional increase in capital cost. Let GiCor show you how we can use Mechoshade Motorized Blinds to enhance all of your future shading projects.
