FAQs
What are external louvres?
Louvres offer a practical and adaptable option for a range of external applications. These can include providing natural ventilation and rain defence for plant equipment, limiting noise transmission in industrial applications, offering effective solar shading in building facades, and providing discreet screening around areas such as roof terraces.
What are external louvres made from?
External louvres are typically supplied in aluminium or steel. We can manufacture our louvres with a wide range of finishes, including mill and anodised aluminium and polyester powder coating. These finishes allow the units to blend seamlessly with the building design whilst also providing enhanced durability for lasting performance in challenging external applications.
