The benefits of aluminium louvres in construction

2 July 2014 by Superior Panels

Aluminium louvres provide architects with various options in building design and construction.  At Superior Insulated Panels we have been fabricating a wide variety of aluminium louvres which we know are installed not just to provide ventilation to plant rooms – their most common use, but also for other reasons.

In designing a building, an architect must consider not just the present use but possible future uses and alterations.  Aluminium louvres can provide several features to a building both functional and aesthetic.

What benefits can aluminium louvres provide?

building with Aluminium LouvresThere are several benefits aluminium louvres can provide aside from simple ventilation to plant rooms.

For the more creative architect, louvres can be incorporated into a building’s overall design not just for function but also for aesthetics.  Whilst it is true that in most cases louvres are not considered as part of the design, the more creative architect that wishes to create dramatic effects is able to utilise the horizontal lines provided by several banks of louvres to create impact in one or more elevations.

Typical examples of this include North Middlesex Hospital, Doncaster Civic Offices and Leeds United Football Club where aluminium louvres have been used to as part of the overall building design.

In other parts of the world where temperatures are high, aluminium louvres are used to completely cloak a building and provide much needed shading and ventilation. Some of these louvre systems are hinged to allow them to swing back allowing windows to be opened and balconies to be accessed.

Another typical use of aluminium louvres around the world is for water control.  Certain countries use louvres as a method of flood control allowing waters to enter and leave a location but at the same time equalizing water pressure and limiting damage to buildings and infrastructure caused by excessive water pressure.

Superior Insulated Panels offer a range of aluminium powder coated louvres

Superior Insulated Panels have been powder coating and fabricating aluminium louvres for many years. All our products are coated and manufactured in house allowing us to control our production with our own sophisticated paint plant and machinery.  This enables us to offer fast turnaround even on special colours, excellent service levels and competitive pricing.

Our louvre systems come with a variety of blade sizes and pitches.  They are fabricated using special connectors and blade support systems that allow simple fabrication yet long long life once installed.

Should your requirements be more specialist, we can also provide shapes and special sizes, fixed or glazed in modules as well as those louvres suitable for door systems and for fitting into screening or curtain walling.

All our louvre systems are available in a wide range of RAL, BS and Syntha Pulvin colours.  Superior Insulated Panels can provide powder coated louvres coated with powders from the leading names such as Interpon, Akzo Nobel, Exalta and Tiger Coatings.
