MicroLouvre®; the world's thinnest and lightest metal louvre fabric
The ultimate climate-protecting solution for solar heat providing solar shading, light & glare control and energy savings. The professional answer for architects, environmental & lighting consultants, and building service engineers.
The world's thinnest and lightest louvre system
Woven in the UK, MicroLouvre® is the world’s thinnest and lightest louvre system, with up to 700 paper thin, bronze micro louvres woven into every metre of the metal fabric - optimal for solar shading. MicroLouvre® metal fabric is only 1.55mm thick overall (no thicker than a grain of rice) and each louvre measures only 1.25mm x 0.30mm. The fabric has an open area of 80% and weighs just over a kilo per square metre.
This makes MicroLouvre®, although a simple concept, the most technically advanced, versatile and comprehensive all-in-one solution for a variety of application such as solar shading, light and glare control and fire protection with a 60 year proven lifespan. Outperforming competitors in these fields, the MicroLouvre® technical performance criteria even exceed international methods of testing, as proved by Fraunhofer and SimScale.

Product integrations
Hazendal Wine Estate
We finished the new installation on 24th March 2021 during a peak solar heat gain period and immediately, significant reductions in temperature were experienced, such that air conditioning was not even needed at that time.

The Huntington & Langham Estate
MicroLouvre™ was the only option as the building required ventilation and uninterrupted vision out.
Stadkamer
The use of MicroLouvre™, integrated into the units assisted with the control of light to be directed to the intended target only, minimizing light pollution and glare.
Made in Britain
Our fabrics are all made in the UK to reduce shipping emissions.
100% recyclable
MicroLouvre™ metal fabrics and frames are 100% recyclable and are proven to last over 60 years.
90% recycled
The metal fabrics are made from over 90% recycled scrap copper.
68% HVAC savings
Air conditioning usage can be reduced by more than 68% and equipment halved.
A huge range of exceptional performance properties in just one system
MicroLouvre™ metal fabric has exceptional performance properties. Its solar shading and glare control capabilities, combined with its fire and heat resistance, make it uniquely versatile. Its flexibility also means we can produce this in limitless shapes, sizes, and colours for all types of window coverings, lighting design, exhibition displays and for managing natural ventilation.
