Lou Martin & Associates, a San Antonio-based supplier of cabin shell packages and window shading systems (Booth No. 4989), is now offering a “next-generation E3 Shade” that integrates the pleated variant with the dimmable window technology of InspecTech Aero Service.By incorporating the manually or electrically pleated window shade with the I-Shade, interior designers can avoid the “black hole” presented by the fully opaque “smart” window and maintain the overall cabin design through the soft-fabric choices and variety of colors of a pleated shade.“It’s an ideal blend of design and technology,” said Lou Martin, founder and president of Lou Martin & Associates.
