Application

Designed for applications requiring optimal airflow and effective protection against wind-driven rain ingress. These aluminium louvres offer a robust rain defence solution while maintaining high levels of ventilation efficiency.

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.
