Fire Screens & Shutters

Wildfire and Bushfire Screens and Ember Mesh

MicroLouvre® Wildfire Screens , Bushfire Screens and ember mesh, protect life and property from flying burning ember attack whilst also providing the highest heat attenuation performance.

Bushfires in Australia and Wildfires in the US cause huge amounts of damage and our screens can be very effective in mitigating this.

The specially angled, bronze louvres are the perfect solution for absorbing and dissipating heat, shown by the industry-leading 49.4% attenuation achieved when tested by CSIRO. Whilst MicroLouvre® Screens provide the highest performance for heat attenuation and burning flying ember attack, the unique paper-thin louvres provide twice the open area vision out compared to other Bush and Wildfire screens.

MicroLouvre Koolshade® is A1/A2, BAL-40 and BAL-FZ regulation-compliant to block and reduce fire risk. Perfect for use as ember mesh, fire attenuation screens and bushfire shutters.

Fire Protection Screens and Ember Mesh using MicroLouvre Koolshade® are efficient and effective.

MicroLouvre Koolshade® fulfils two essential, life-saving fire protection functions, as well as the unbeatable solar control functions .

Fire Attenuation Screens

MicroLouvre Koolshade® Fire-Safe Screens (fire attenuation screens) are the only whole window covering to combine A1/A2 Fire Rating (legally required for all residential buildings such as apartments, hotels, and hospitals over 18 meters / 4 floors high).

UK Fire Regulations

Fires in high rise buildings are tragically becoming more commonplace, and England Building (Amendment) Regulation 2018 requires that any attachment to an external wall is A1 or A2-s1, d0.

MicroLouvre Koolshade® is the only all-in-one, multi-function window covering system to meet these changes.

MicroLouvre Koolshade® FHA Metal Fabric and MicroLouvre FHA Screens and fittings are made from EuroClass A1 (the fabric) and EuroClass A1/A2-s1,d0 : BS EN 13501 (the screens) components.

Bushfire Screens (BAL-40)

MicroLouvre Koolshade® Wildfire and Bushfire screens incorporate a micro fine louvred metal fabric that is only 1.55mm thick. The innovative angled louvre design prevents flame penetration from ember attacks and burning debris.

Testing was performed with industry leading results at the CSIRO. As the louvres are spaced 1.2mm apart, the MicroLouvre Koolshade® FHA bushfire system provides protection to AS3959 up to BAL-FZ, plus complete solar shading and fire protection of a whole window up to BAL-40.
