Features & Advantages
- Wide blade pitch to maximise airflow performance
- Channels in blades and vertical sections help to collect and drain away rain water
- Visible mullions to line up with other façade elements; invisible vertical joint detail can be achieved with hidden mullions for continuous look
- Delivered to site as pre-fabricated modules for efficient installation
Applications
- Where high free area / high airflow solution is required
- Where economy is primary consideration
- In exhaust areas where low pressure drop is needed, such as data centres
Specification Calculators
We've built 2 tools to help you with your specification process. One to help you calculate pressure drop for your chosen CS Louvre model, the other to help you calculate the area of louvre required for your project.

Specification
Guidance
The principal reason for using louvres is to allow the movement of air. But, louvre specification is a balance between form and function, with louvred façade appearance playing an important part in the selection process.
