Description
High-performance aluminium louvres with horizontal blades and visible mullions, offering great protection against wind-driven rain penetration while maintaining good airflow. Independently tested to achieve Class A rain defence performance up to 3.0 m/s core velocities.
Features and benefits:
- Complex extruded blade profile ensures excellent rain defence performance, even under challenging weather conditions.
- Multiple drainage channels integrated into blades, vertical jambs, and mullions effectively collect and drain water from the louvred area.
- Achieves Class 2 airflow performance for air intake and class 3 for exhaust applications.
- Interlocking visible mullions align with other façade elements. Choice of visible or invisible horizontal joints between units for design flexibility.
- Choice of frame types for integration into structural openings, curtain walling or glazing systems.
- Supplied as pre-fabricated modules to reduce installation time and on-site labour.
- Blast resistant and RC2 security-rated variants available for high-security applications.
- Slimline single bank design.
- Sight-proof design.
- Available in a range of finishes, including powder-coated and anodised options, to suit aesthetic and environmental requirements.
