Our aluminium elevation louvers are engineered for building exteriors — they control solar heat gain, provide privacy, allow natural ventilation and create a striking modern architectural look. Each louver profile is precision-extruded from 6063-T5 aluminium alloy and finished with weather-resistant powder coating rated for 15–20 years of exterior exposure.
The profiles are installed depth-side with gaps equal to the profile depth — for example, 100×50mm profiles are mounted 50mm apart creating an even visual rhythm. This pattern maximizes sun shading while maintaining airflow and partial transparency. Vertical louvers are ideal for east and west facades (low-angle sun), while horizontal louvers perform best on north and south elevations.
Elevation louvers are mounted on an outer frame (100×50mm aluminium) supported by 100×100mm pillars for freestanding installations. For wall-mounted facades, concealed MS/SS angle brackets are chemically anchored to the building structure. All connections use concealed GI/SS connectors — no visible bolts or welds.
Facade louvers reduce direct solar radiation on building glass by up to 60%, significantly lowering cooling loads. This makes aluminium louvers a key component in GRIHA and LEED-rated green buildings across India.

Aluminium elevation louvers combine the aesthetic warmth of wood with the structural performance of metal — without the drawbacks of either. Unlike GI/MS louvers, aluminium does not rust even in Hyderabad's humid monsoon conditions. Unlike ACP cladding, aluminium louvers are non-combustible and provide natural ventilation through the open gap pattern. Unlike real wood, aluminium does not warp, swell, crack or attract termites.
For commercial buildings, aluminium facade louvers contribute to green building certification (GRIHA/LEED) by reducing cooling loads through passive solar shading. The life-cycle cost of aluminium louvers is significantly lower than any alternative due to zero maintenance and 15–20+ year lifespan.
All structural calculations are performed considering local wind load factors as per Indian building norms. Engineering drawings and load sheets can be provided upon request.

We install aluminium elevation louvers and facade profile rafters in Hyderabad, Bangalore, Mumbai, Pune, Chennai, Delhi NCR, Kolkata, Ahmedabad and across India. In Hyderabad, heat and dust demand powder-coated profiles that resist UV and stay easy to clean. In Bangalore, high-rise and villa projects benefit from perforated panels and facade integration. In Mumbai, multi-storey buildings need compact, rain-proof profiles. In Chennai, coastal humidity requires moisture-resistant coating.
