Facade Restoration using MicroLouvre™ is efficient and effective.
When MicroLouvre™ is fitted to dated single or double glazing, still commonplace in most building stocks, the overall glazing performance for protection from solar heat gain is superior to even the best current solar glass. MicroLouvre™ screens can be made to look just like the original window appearance.
How does MicroLouvre™ Koolshade® work?
MicroLouvre™ Koolshade® is light, but solid, architectural material made from 700 paper-thin bronze louvres woven into every metre of the unique metal fabric. It can be integrated into your glazing or tensioned into a lightweight aluminium frame. It can be quickly and easily installed to the whole façade, the window frames, or just the glazing itself.
Applying MicroLouvre™ to your facade, either using a stand-alone screen or within the glazing, provides effective protection against excess heat gain and glare whilst still maintaining visibility to the outside world. Its application has been proven to reduce energy demand for cooling by as much as 70% and lighting by over 50%, therefore providing a rapid return on investment.
Heat block and solar shading
MicroLouvre™ Koolshade® blocks up to 100% solar heat gain and up to 100% solar glare.
Uninterrupted vision out and balanced daylighting
Solar shading screens provide unobstructed views and access to natural light, improving the thermal, visual and environmental comfort of a building's occupants, proven to have real psychological and productivity benefits.

Ventilation
MicroLouvre™ Koolshade® allows pure, natural daylight in, whilst still allowing you to easily open the windows so that the directional louvres create upward laminar air circulation - proven to combat viruses and stagnant air.

Easily outperforms solar glass
With ordinary clear double glazing, MicroLouvre™ Koolshade® blocks solar heat better than any solar glass in the summer sun, with a 100% heat block (0.0 gtot), perfect daylight quality and clear outward vision for occupants.
Hurricane proof
MicroLouvre™ Koolshade® is tried and tested in withstanding Hurricane Force 12 and Category 2 Hurricane winds.

How it works
How does MicroLouvre™ Koolshade® work?
MicroLouvre™ Koolshade® invisibly neutralises solar heat gain and glare before they even reach the window. MicroLouvre™ uniquely works non-stop providing dynamic g-value (heat blocking) performance to continually dissipate the sun’s heat and energy into the atmosphere but not blocking vision out, natural daylight or natural ventilation; solar shading using our products is efficient and effective.
