10 developments in 10 years of ValkScreenVision 2.0

10 years of highlights ValkScreenVision 2.0!

In 2015, we took an important step in the development of screen systems with the introduction of ValkScreenVision 2.0: the innovative screen system that makes the retraction of screen cloths faster, easier and more efficient.

Ten years later, we look back on this development with pride. Thanks to our continuous focus on innovation, we have further optimized the system with advanced technologies and smart product designs, leading to today's ValkScreenVision 2.0.

In this overview, we take you through the most important developments: from the first ideas to the latest innovations that continue to strengthen our vision.

1. Back to the beginning: Quattro Plus (2011)
Quattro Plus was our first screen installation where the cloth was confected on-site and immediately retracted. Although we learned a lot from the Quattro Plus, it did not prove to be completely future-proof. That motivated us to continue innovating. 
2. Introduction ValkScreenProfile VSV (2015)
To work more efficiently, we designed a new profile that allowed preparation in the factory, so that the fabric only had to be retracted on site.
3. ValkDelta retraction tool (2015)
For efficient screen cloth installation, we developed the ValkDelta retraction tool. This distinctive red triangle retracts the screen cloth effortlessly, tension-free and crease-free across the entire width.
4. Entry pieces designed (2016)
Our experiences in the field led to smarter processes. Where previously we had to mount the outer pieces of 1.60m screen profile afterwards, the new entry pieces ensure quick and perfect assembly in one go.
5. Additional cloth processing with a head strip (2017)
Attaching the screen cloth with a separate strip and hook was time-consuming. Our solution: the head strip is now confected in our factory, allowing on-site installation in under a minute and enabling the installation crew to install more cloths per day.
6. Multi-layer cloth confection (2018)
We adjusted our cloth confection machine to be able to confect multi-layer and later three-layer screen cloth. Whereas cloth clips had difficulty with the thickness of the screen cloth, this is not a problem for the retractable screen. 
7. Dilatation coupling designed (2019)
With the development of our new dilatation coupling, it is now possible for screen cloths wider than 100 meters to function smoothly. Additionally, the coupling serves as an entry and exit piece when retracting the screen cloth.
8. Profile designed with two cloth chambers (2020)
With double screens, the upper cloth often hangs flat due to the lack of space. Our new screen profile with two cloth chambers offers the solution: the last ±1.5 meters now has a double cloth layer, which neatly accommodates contraction.
9. Removable profile designed (2022)
For screen installations wider than 100 meters, a piece of profile used to be cut away, which could cause damage. Our solution? The removable screen profile, assembled during installation and disassembled after retraction, without risk of damage.
10. New: ValkScreenProfile VSV intermediate profile (2025)
And we continue to innovate... There’s a new product again! With the development of the ValkScreenProfile VSV intermediate profile, we can now mount two one after the other screen installations on one wire bed.
