Louvrelite Window Surround

Louvrelite® window surrounds can be effortlessly integrated into a building to envelop windows. Representing a cost-effective, non-structural way to make a standout and visually compelling aesthetic that will bring a building unique design, visual interest, and architectural depth. Custom-built and able to be colour powder coated to complement or contrast with a building's façade, they can either seamlessly “blend in” or serve as eye-catching accents with geometric patterns, play with light and shadow, or introduce dynamic textures. Constructed from high-quality aluminium, these surrounds offer exceptional durability, and weather resistance to ensure longevity and minimal maintenance requirements.

Louvrelite® Solar Control which comes in a range of sizes is a passive design feature that can have louvre angle and spacing adjusted for the optimal position when installed, to enable maximum light in winter and minimal in summer without ongoing adjustments.
