A Louver Façade Is At Your Service For Sunlight and Shade

If you’re lucky enough to have had a louver façade installed on the exterior of your building, you’re relishing the presence of sunny days and warmer temperatures. Now that summer has arrived in the northern hemisphere, people think that weather worries are over. There’s certainly no threat of blizzards for those countries where June, July, and August herald a chance to enjoy outdoor activities uninhibited by snow and cold. However, too much of a good thing, even the summer sun, can present problems. With sunshine comes glare; with warm weather comes heat and humidity. Being able to control those weather features is one of the reasons why a louver façade is such a popular architectural addition to a design.

A Louver Façade Adds Weather Control And Comfort To A Building’s Interior

On a perfect day, when the temperature is just right, a louver system can make things even better by bringing the outdoors inside. On an imperfect day, one in which rain has darkened the skies and brought dampness and chill along with it, your louver façade keeps the inclement weather out. Microcell technology has proven its strength and versatility. It presents a strong defense against weather’s extremes, which helps to keep insulation dry and free from the moisture that could otherwise compromise your energy efficiency. Because Danpal facades are famed for their light weight and ease of installation, they’re a popular choice among architects.

Sunshine and Shade Brought To You By A Louver Façade

Bringing the outdoors inside means finding the right balance between sunlight and shade. Sunshine, for all its wonders, can sometimes be too bright. That’s when we need shade and that’s one of the ways in which a louver façade can blend the benefits of natural light with the comfort of shade. Too warm? Too bright? No problem for a shading system Daylighting architecture delivers the weather the way that you like it, with fresh air on demand, and shade when you need it.

How A Louver Façade Improves Energy Efficiency

It’s natural that, in cold weather, we depend upon our heating systems; in hot weather, we crank up the air conditioning. But with 365 days in a calendar year, there are many days when we don’t need heating or cooling. That’s when a louver façade can make an enormous difference, both in your comfort and in your energy usage. You’ll relish those days when you have all the advantages of the beautiful outdoors while you work inside—the natural light, the fresh breezes, the shade—without those negative aspects of nature, like bugs, glare, and humidity.

Happiness Is a Louver Façade

Well, that might be an exaggeration, but when you think about it, you realize that a louver façade, by giving you more control over the level of nature that you allow into your workspace or living space, does make you feel better and more productive. These days, when the remote working and learning models are becoming far more familiar, isn’t it a good idea to find out whether your home office would benefit from a louver system?

Horizontal Louvres Are Danpal’s Comfort Color Chart

As much as we like the sunshine, we can’t help but wish that nature came equipped with some customizable features like horizontal louvres so that, when we’re outdoors, we’d be able to control the levels of light and minimize the glare. So far, Mother Nature has not proven herself willing to allow that but fortunately, Mother Nature does not have the final say over what goes on inside. That’s why, with Danpal horizontal louvres, the consumer decides how much sunlight is too much, and when the irritation of glare needs to be subdued by the relief of shade. With Danpal and architectural innovation, we’re able to enjoy nature on our terms.

Scheduling Sunlight With Horizontal Louvres

Depending on the time of day, sunshine makes an appearance at different places in the room and some of those times might be especially inconvenient for us, depending on what we’re doing and how much glare is interfering with what we’re looking at. Horizontal louvres are designed to offer different angles so that we can bring in the sunlight and close off the glare.

Using Horizontal Louvres To Improve Ventilation

Fresh air on a temperate day is something that many of us enjoy, particularly if we’re working inside. Fresh air helps to keep us alert and even if we wish we could be outside enjoying leisure, we at least benefit from the ventilation indoors. Horizontal louvres can be angled so that the windows bring in air from outside. If we want lots of air, the louvres allow for maximized air flow to almost as much as the full width of the window.

Maximizing Horizontal Louvres Ventilation to Improve Energy Efficiency

We depend upon our heating and cooling systems to keep us comfortable inside when we’re dealing with winter cold, summer heat, autumn frost, and spring rains. But with accessible ventilation, consumers can also take advantage of fresh air, sunshine, and shade from outside. Horizontal louvres make it possible to stay comfortable on temperate days without turning on the heat or the air conditioning. Your heating and cooling systems get a break. So does your budget—fresh air is free!

Louvres and the Danpal Translucent Polycarbonate Shading System

Did you know that comfort comes in different colors? It does with the DanpaShade Louvre System, which not only gives you the option of choosing the ventilation comfort level that’s right for you but also lets you decide what color it should be. You’ve known Danpal as a leader in designing building materials that are durable and easy to work with. Now you know that they also manufacture products that let you redefine the color of comfort.

Why You Should Choose Danpal for Your Horizontal Louvres

Vertical Sun Shading Leaves The Sunshine Up To You

There’s weather, and there’s daylight, and there’s vertical sun shading. If you live in a region where there’s lots of sunshine, you already know that once the air conditioning is turned on, the energy bills increase. If you live in an area where winter is cold and it seems as if the sun never shines, then you dread getting your heating bill. But if you install a vertical shading system, not only can you maximize and minimize sun and shade to suit the seasons. You can also bring natural light indoors so that winter days aren’t so dark, and you can add shade on sunny days. It’s all a matter of personal preference. Danpal wants to give you what you want, and we’ve designed and manufactured the vertical louvre system that puts you in charge of the sunshine!

The addition of a vertical shading system can show weather and daylight how to play nice in a way that they wouldn’t otherwise do without a little help from Danpal. Danpal knows how much of an impact a vertical louvre system can have on your structure’s appearance, on the heating and cooling costs, and on the environment. Making the decision to steer the sunlight to suit your personal comfort zone takes architecture into a holistic direction.

How Does Vertical Sun Shading Affect Energy Consumption?

Vertical sun shades are effective because they are based upon knowledge of the sun’s position in the sky. That position—bear with us, it’s a little bit of astronomy here, but it’ll help to understand how vertical sun shading works—is described as altitude and azimuth angles. The angle of the sun when it’s above the horizon is the altitude angle. The sun is at its maximum height at solar noon. The azimuth angle is the angle of the sun’s projection to the ground, relative to the southern direction.

If you don’t have a vertical louvre system that is designed with the position of the sun in mind, the calendar might be a problem. What does that mean? Well, let’s say you’re using blackout curtains to block out the sun. That’s fine for the hot summer months, but what about the spring months, when you’d like a little more of the sun’s warmth coming in? Your blinds aren’t going to change position just because the weather is cooler. A vertical sun shading system, on the other hand, is specifically designed to optimize the position of the sun when you want it the most, and to lower its intensity when you don’t want it as much.

All of which means that if your building’s vertical sun shades are designed well—and if you’re installing Danpal vertical sun shading, you know they are—you have the means to not only improve the quality of natural lighting inside a building, but also lower the building’s peak heat gain and cooling needs. Reductions in annual cooling energy consumption can be as much as 5 percent to 10 percent. Buildings use a lot of energy, so by reducing consumption and increasing energy efficiency with a vertical shading system, you’re helping the planet.

During the cooling season, exterior vertical sun shading can keep solar heat gain from entering a conditioned space where that heat isn’t wanted.

How Does Vertical Sun Shading Affect Personal Comfort?

But there’s a personal consideration if you’re pondering the benefits of external vertical sun shading. Everyone loves a sunny day, but who loves the accompanying glare that can make it hard to see? Glare on a laptop can make it just about impossible to read what’s on the screen, and that means that productivity is reduced. Visual comfort is a significant factor in the workplace. Vertical sun screens can reduce contrast ratios and make it easier to see. Not only does productivity increase as a result, but so does personal comfort. We love sunlight, but when too much is coming inside from the outdoors, it can wear out its welcome.

How Does Vertical Sun Shading Affect A Building’s Appearance?

Exterior vertical sun shading gives a building its own distinctive look. Esthetics have a lot to do with how a neighborhood or business community is perceived and every individual structure plays a part in that perception. The daylighting architecture that Danpal has pioneered also delivers a new aesthetic to your interior working and living space. By balancing daylight and shade, the indoors becomes your own weather comfort zone.

Exterior Louvres Offer Do-It-Yourself Choices for Light and Shade

Exterior louvres have become increasingly popular for homeowners as a way to enhance the appearance of the outside of their houses. With the color, texture and dimension that exterior louvres deliver, the appearance of your windows imparts a more eye-catching appeal that can make the structure even more attractive. Another feature of the exterior louvres is the fact that they are easy to install, so if you’re a homeowner who is looking for a “Do-It-Yourself” project, consider installing exterior louvres. Our exterior louvres take the “Do-It-Yourself” concept to a whole new level, giving you the final choice over the amount of daylight and shade that you desire for your interior spaces. Controlling the weather? Now that’s really doing it yourself—with a little help from Danpal!

Advantages of Exterior Louvres

Louvres have gained in popularity because they offer a way to invite daylight into the living and working space without having to deal with the less pleasant features of nature. Fresh air is definitely a plus, and if the air turns chilly, it’s simply a matter of closer the louvres. Sunlight is a wonderful addition to a room, but when the sun is so bright that it causes glare, or the heat is too heavy and humid for comfort, the louvres can be closed. Exterior louvres make it possible for you to measure the amount of daylight and sunshine and fresh air that you prefer inside. How much you want is up to you.

Another advantage of the exterior louvres is the privacy that you gain. Occupants of a home or building don’t want to be on display to their neighbors; that’s easily remedied with exterior louvres, which give you ventilation and daylight, as well as privacy.

The Danpal Louvre Wall System Designs Sunlight and Shade for Your Interior Space

The flow of air in a building is a major factor in the comfort level of the occupants within. You don’t want too much or you’ll feel the cold, but if there’s too little moving air inside, the atmosphere is stuffy. Of course, your heating system in the winter and your air conditioning in the summer are supposed to keep things comfortable inside. That’s what they’re designed to do. However, when it’s too hot, we hurry back into the air conditioning. When it’s too cold, we can’t wait to get out of the cold and into the warmth inside. We expect to be comfortable when we’re inside a room. We enjoy being outside when the weather is pleasant, but sometimes, heat and air conditioning need help. That’s where a louvre wall system comes into play.
Ventilation is more than just cranking up the heat or the AC. Louvres provide ventilation that prevents inside air from feeling stale. A louvre wall system allows the air to flow without resistance while keeping out the rain and moisture, so that people can retain that internal comfort while keeping out the external elements that don’t belong inside. When you think about it, it’s the perfect way to add just the right amount of comfort to your living or working space.

Other Functions of Louvre Systems

You might think of a louvre system as your own personal climate control centre. Louvres are angled slats that help with ventilating a room or the inside of a structure, but they serve other purposes as well. A louvre wall system also contributes to a much broader means of weather maintenance. If it’s a beautiful day outside, the sun is shining and the temperature is comfortable, your louvres can be opened wide to let in the warmth and the light. But what if it’s too hot and too bright and the sunshine is too intense? The louvres can be closed a bit so that you have more shade. If it’s a rainy day or the temperature is cold outside, you simply close the louvres.
A louvre wall system delivers the sunlight, the shade, and the fresh air. And it also adds to the external appearance of the structure, so that the result isn’t just climate control, but esthetic appeal as well. A building doesn’t need to be just a physical structure; it can also present an attractive image in the community. Louvres provide this tool so that the consumer can, from inside, determine how much of the outside is going to enter.

The Danpal Louvre Wall System Delivers Sunshine and Shade

Danpalon® Louvre, a translucent shading system, offers maximum control over light and heat, as well as extended UV protection and high-impact resistance. It also offers control, with a louvre wall system that gives consumers the power over how much light and shade, as the weather indicates, is brought inside. The louvre wall system also lends itself to esthetics, with finishes, effects and colors that transform the exterior design of a building. Sunlight and shade for comfort, with beauty thrown in for good measure: that’s the Danpal louvre wall system.

Curtain Wall Louvres Are Your Inside Weather Forecaster

A curtain wall system is designed to keep weather out of the interior of a building. It serves as an external covering of a building where the outer walls do not have a structural purpose. Curtain wall systems aren’t required to support the building, which means that they can be light in weight. Curtain wall systems are engineered to prevent moisture and air from invading the interior of a structure, and to withstand wind loads. Curtain wall louvres are popular because they help to enhance the daylighting effect that natural light bestows upon internal areas, as well as lend themselves to other typical attributes of louvres such as improved visual support and energy efficiency.

How Curtain Wall Louvre Perform

There is an impressive array of architectural variety available in construction plans today, and curtain wall louvre add to that versatility. In order to function as a high-performing unit, the glazing frames of the louvres are completely integrated into the curtain wall system to display a seamless exterior. The louvres fit so perfectly that they can barely be distinguished from the windows or from the linear design of the curtain wall.

Advantages of Installing Curtain Wall Louvres

Ease of installation leads to cost savings, something that’s certain to delight consumers. Curtain wall louvres also support the climate control of the interior environment. Saving the cost of labor by installing the system, and saving on energy, are all pluses that add up to a win for those who chose curtain wall louvre.

What You Can Expect From the DANPAL® LOUVRE SYSTEM’s Curtain Wall Louvres

Over the course of its half century of leadership in the building industry, Danpal has built a stellar reputation as a company that puts its experience to work. Innovation and cutting-edge technology are the trademarks of Danpal, as is the slogan, Global Vision, Local Focus, which says a lot for a company that has a presence on five continents.

Danpal Louvre Systems Personalize Vertical Louvre Panels

Vertical louvre panels are a familiar architectural feature, in part because in many cases, building roof panels and eaves have a vertical alignment. Where the louvres match those things, continuing that pattern creates a uniform appearance that is esthetically symmetrical and pleasing to the eye. Louvre panels can be installed on the top of a structure so that the overall appearance has a more natural look. Vertical louvre panels retain the characteristic ventilation properties for which louvres are best known, but they also combine an esthetic aspect as well, offering the union of performance and appearance that is their trademark. This harmonious blend of function and visual aspect is also a characteristic of Danpal, a company that has combined a half-century of experience in the building industry with cutting-edge innovation. Danpal’s newest product line, the DANPAL® LOUVRE SYSTEM’S Translucent Polycarbonate Shading System, introduces a dynamic new shade-shift technology that offers a unique approach to external fixed louvre systems.

Ventilation and Variety: The Characteristics of Vertical Louvre Panels

While most of us will never be involved in the construction of a new sports center, or a theatre, or a magnificent edifice, we are directly engaged in the functions of the buildings where we live and work. It’s in that role as consumers and occupants that most of us assess the architectural features of our living and working space. We want to be comfortable inside the rooms where we spend our time. We want that comfort to come with just enough daylight to give us a sense that nature is within our grasp. That’s why louvres are such an asset: they provide us with fresh air and daylight when we seek it, but we decide to close them when temperatures and inclement weather have us seeking shade and warmth instead.

The Translucent Polycarbonate Shading System and Vertical Louvre Panels

Danpal is committed to the concept that its products should maintain a global vision by manufacturing materials that support a safe and sustainable environment, while recognizing the local focus of community needs. With our DanpaShade Louvre System, we produce vertical louvre panels that fulfill this mission. Our systems are built with the light-in-weight and strong-in-endurance Danpalon polycarbonate. Our Aura Louvre System works with sunlight and shade so that you can personalize your interior space for year-round comfort while increasing the energy efficiency of your building. DanpaShade Aura is the pathway to your building’s image, expressed in your own unique style by choosing from the unique two in one color options. It’s another first from Danpal!

The vitality of this latest Danpal innovation is built upon the solid foundation of traditional Danpal performance and quality.

We promote systems that are harmonious with the environment. Every Danpal system and product reflects the standards of the Danpal vision to build for you and for the planet.

A Louvre Façade Lets You Play With Sunlight and Shade

 
What are louvre facades? You see them in office buildings and shopping center, in indoor and outdoor settings, enhancing the physical appearance of structures but also providing a valuable function as well. Danpal façade system are designed for the purpose of reducing the transfer of heat and the intensity of light, as well as improving a structure’s physical appearance. Installation can place the louvres against the building, or else they can be protruded in order to provide shading.
The traditional role of a typical façade system is not to play a structural role in a building’s design, but to prevent moisture from causing damage to the interior of that structure. Hail, wind, snow and rain are a building’s natural foes, one which it faces day after day. Danpal uses Microcell technology to defend a building from those harsh elements. Louvre facades are just as strong as a typical Danpal façade system, but they offer something extra. They let you, the consumer, decide how much of the external weather you want to invite inside. Nobody is going to welcome a downpour of rain or a snowstorm inside, but what about those bright and sunny days, when the air is fresh and the day is bright? That’s when Danpal’s daylighting architecture can let you and the sunlight meet on your terms while you’re inside. For those days when the sun is so bright that the glare is unbearable and the heat too intense, you still have control over how much of a hot summer day is going to come in. The louvres can be closed entirely to bring shade to your interior.

Louvre Facades Play With Sunlight and Shade

Wonder what Danpal is up to these days? What if we told you that Danpal, a leader in the building industry for over fifty years and a trailblazer in daylighting architecture, has been learning to play with sunlight and shade?
Danpalon® Louvre, a translucent shading system, empowers the customers to determine the balance of light and shade that is perfect for them, creating an internal atmosphere that meets their preferences. Louvre facades can be installed on various building types, and with the dazzling selection of colors and finishes for which Danpal is known, the result creates internal comfort and external beauty.
Along with that customized control over sunlight and shade comes the mastery over ventilation. Adding louvre facades to a structure allows for the welcome presence of fresh air coming in from outside and on a pleasant day, there’s nothing like the enticement of warm breezes to invigorate interior working and living space. If the day is cool and not conducive to open louvres, then they can be closed. This feature expands a building’s energy efficiency by allowing nature to carry some of the burden of adding comfort to the indoors, but always on your terms and according to your personal preferences.
Danpal designs the products. The architect designs the building. You, the customer, design your comfort zone.

Horizontal Louvres Let the Sunshine In

As we all know, sunlight strikes different places at different hours of the day. But sunlight, as much as we love to see it, and as much as we benefit from it, can be excessive. Glare from sunlight can prevent us from seeing as well as we would like and that’s when the sunlight turns into an impediment to better vision. So what’s the sweet spot between the right amount of sunlight and too much glare? Horizontal louvres can shade the angles differently so that sunlight is something we can enjoy without the glare. Made of a variety of different materials, including vinyl, aluminium, wood and fabric, horizontal louvres are often preferred for tall windows that might be small or narrow. Choosing horizontal louvres is a smart way to let the sunshine in!

What are the Advantages of Horizontal Louvres?

Ventilation

Louvres offer many advantages, including improved ventilation, diffusion of daylight and a reduction of glare, and privacy. Horizontal louvres, which can be angled to give control over the flow of air, maximize the ability of the window to provide a flow of air, to almost the complete width of the window.

Energy Efficiency

Energy efficiency is a key component of horizontal louvres because the ventilation that comes from the air that comes in lets you reduce the amount of heat and cooling that you need to stay comfortable. This, in turn, lowers the amount that you pay in your energy bills.

Cleaning Ease

When it’s time to clean the louvres, you don’t have all the preparation and fuss of going outside and trying to figure out how to balance your cleaning supplies and yourself on a ladder. That’s because horizontal louvres can be cleaned from the inside, making this a household chore that is no longer one to dread.

How Horizontal Louvres Reflect a New Danpal Technology

Danpal, a building company with a presence on five continents, has built a reputation for innovation through its half-century of leadership in the industry. Now Danpal, with its Translucent Polycarbonate Shading System, has created a unique direction for external fixed louvre systems.
The louvre systems are the new way to provide an upgrade to interior working and living spaces.

Danpal believes in providing the highest quality of building materials for consumers, but the company also believes that consumers deserve to choose products that add to their comfort and satisfaction. Horizontal louvres are one of the ways that Danpal is adding personal choice to the range of architectural options for consumers to consider. Sunlight, ventilation, and satisfaction, coming in through your louvres.

Exterior Vertical Louvres Give You Interior Climate Control

Exterior vertical louvres not only provide a means of protecting your windows, but they also allow you to enhance the outside appearance of a building. The vertical louvres, which are set within a frame and placed on the sides of the windows, have other advantages as well. Because they are located on the exterior of the structure, they offer privacy for the occupants inside. They still deliver sunlight and fresh air, bringing the outdoors into your rooms so you reap the benefits of nature while controlling how much of it you want to enjoy. Weather is unpredictable, but exterior vertical louvres let you build the perfect forecast inside.

Here’s Your Exterior Vertical Louvre Weather Report

What’s the weather like outside? If there’s a pleasant breeze outside and you want to enjoy it even though you’re inside, you can open the louvres for optimum ventilation. But if it’s a hot, humid day, the kind of day when you want to escape the temperature, you can close the shutters and savor the shade. The marvellous thing about exterior vertical louvres is that you can enjoy just as much of weather as you prefer, for climate control on your terms!

Maintaining Your Exterior Vertical Louvres

After facing the rain, wind, and snow, your louvres might need to be cleaned, but you won’t have to worry about their ability to withstand the harsh elements because Danpal products can handle whatever the forecast brings your way. Keep in mind that because your exterior vertical louvres are located outside the structure, you may need a ladder in order to reach them. Depending upon the material that the louvres are made of, they can be hosed down and then cleaned. After the louvres are washed, they can be dried with a mop or cloth.

Danpal® Louvre Translucent Shading System and Exterior Vertical Louvres

Louvres are a very satisfying way to include the parts of nature that you like the most into your interior living and working space. There’s the comfort level to be considered, but in these times when so many people are working from home, exterior vertical louvres, when opened to let the sunlight in, also provide you with natural Vitamin D. That means that you can improve your own health just by opening the louvres.
But if it’s a hot day, and you don’t want the heat to get inside, that’s easy to take care of too. The Louvre Translucent Shading System by Danpal lets you experiment with sunlight and shade so that you select the blend of nature that’s perfect for you. You spend a lot of time inside, and now you can share your home with nature. But it’s your home, and you make the rules!
The weather continues to remain powerful outside. Rain, snow and wind are what we expect throughout the different seasons. Don’t worry, though; Danpal’s Microcell technology ensures high-impact resistance to protect the louvres. The system’s snap-on interlocking dry-glazed connectors makes sure of that.

Metal Louvres, the Stronger, More Flexible, More Sustainable Option

Louvres make an attractive addition to any structure, but you may not know that they also serve a practical purpose, one which demonstrably improves the interior structure for the occupants within. Louvres assist in the ventilation of a building and the material that the louvres are made of also brings additional benefits to the feature. They’re an easy way to add to the comfort of the people who live and work inside the structure; they add ventilation, but they also can increase or reduce the light and shade inside, depending upon preference. Metal louvres, by improving the ventilation of a building, are a sustainable way to lower your heating and cooling costs, helping to provide control over the internal climate of the structure. They are easy to maintain and, unlike other materials such as wood, don’t require a regular schedule of maintenance and upkeep. When you’re making a decision on what material to use for your choice of louvres, you’re going to want to learn more about the advantages of metal.

The Versatility of Metal Louvres

Because of their composition, metal louvre can be formed into the shape that meets the specifications of the customer so that they fit into the space that’s been designated for them. When you’re choosing Danpal products, you’ll soon learn that customer = customization. We don’t expect all buildings to be identical, so why would customer preferences be? If you choose metal louvres, you’re going to be delighted with the range of options that await you.

The Durability of Metal Louvres

Metal louvres seem lighter than those made of other materials, but it’s that lightness of weight which adds to their flexibility. But don’t be fooled, because even though they’re light in weight, they’re among the most durable of all building materials. The basic composition of metal demonstrates that flexible and durable can partner for superior building material.

Metal Louvres and the Environment

In these times when awareness of how much our individual actions affect one another and the planet, metal louvres are a particularly wise environmental choice to make. Metal is environmentally friendly because it’s recyclable and can be reused and reprocessed multiple times without sacrificing the quality of its intrinsic properties. No landfill dump for metal; it can be taken to a recycling centre when it’s no longer needed.

The Esthetics of Metal Louvres

Danpal’s commitment to quality is renowned throughout the building industry. Our dedication to our motto, Global Vision, Local Focus, makes us a steadfast partner in the pursuit of environmental responsibility. We’re also steadfast in our belief that esthetics needs to be factored into the architectural design of a structure. Metal louvre support the Danpal position on all of these metrics. When you add color and style to a building, it becomes more than a structure. It has an image, and at Danpal, we’re proud of that image. You will be too.

Wall Louvres Offer Choices That You’ll Enjoy

Louvres add a lot to a building, not only in performance but also in appearance. Wall louvres are designed to improve ventilation so that air can flow into a building while the weather remains outside. Wall louvres let the air in, and while it’s wonderful to have fresh air circulating in a room, no one wants to deal with the unwelcome parts of weather, like rain. Wall louvres can also prevent the outside dust and debris from getting inside. Wall louvres manage to do all this while adding to the esthetic appeal of a building’s exterior.

The Benefits of Ventilation in a Building

Most of us spend the majority of our day and night inside, which means that we aren’t getting a lot of fresh air. After a day spent in air that’s stale, we feel a little stale ourselves. No one says that outside air is always pure; pollution is a factor we all deal with. But inside air, without good ventilation to bring in fresh air and move the stale air, has its own negative qualities; there can be bacteria, mold, and pollutants. That’s why wall louvres can help keep your working space and living space well ventilated to provide good air flow.

Choose The Danpal® Danpashade Louvre System For Your Wall Louvres

Danpal is proud to present an impressive array of building products which vary in style but there are certain qualities that are shared by all the items that we manufacture and that’s true as well for our wall louvres. Danpal has been in business for over fifty years, and in that half-century, we’ve learned how to develop products that are durable enough to stand up to whatever weather conditions they’ll have to face, while remaining in compliance with building code regulations. Weather is tough, but Danpal’s Microcell technology is tougher, with high- impact resistance to support a system with a double-tooth grip-lock connection that guarantees extended longevity, no matter how powerfully the winds are blowing. It’s also designed for daylight applications with tight spacing between the wall louvre ribs to produce an exceptional quality of light. The longevity of the system is strengthened by the panels which provide co-extruded UV protection
Daylight delivers its own esthetic appeal and Danpal, which has been a pioneer in the area of daylighting architecture, has done much to make natural light a feature that can be added to the design of a structure. But Danpal brings even more to the esthetics of the system. We emphasize appearance as well as function and our Danpal® Louvre translucent shading system lets you choose from a variety of color combinations.
There’s one more feature of our wall louvre system that will convince you that you’re making the right choice when you choice Danpal. Our wall louvres aren’t just the esthetic choice, the performance choice—they’re also the economic choice, because installation, with snap-on interlocking dry-glazed connectors, is simple to do. Simple means easy, and that means minimal inconvenience and that means easy on your wallet!
