There are over 700 micro Louvres, each only 0.25mm thick x 1.27mm wide, in every meter of mesh. This is normally coated in protective black polyester for a durable, light absorbing finish, almost eliminating re-reflected sun and light. However, MicroLouvre can be supplied in a wide range of colors to suit the application. 
SOLAR SHADING
MicroLouvre provides 100% solar shade to windows when the attitude of the sun is greater than 40°. The screens are predominantly installed in close proximity to the outside of windows and in a vertical plane. 
OTHER PROVEN BENEFITS OF MICROLOUVRE
Reduction in Heat Loss – It has been proven that MicroLouvre is able to reduce outward heat loss through a 6mm clear plate glass window at night under winter design conditions by at least 15%. Thereby reducing costs of heating in winter. Ventilation – MicroLouvre permit an open area of at least 79% allowing great natural airflow and high visibility Reduction of Noise – Reduce external noise intensity by as much as 50% Insect Protection – MicroLouvre screens provide at least 17 horizontal wires to the vertical 25mm which is equivalent or better than fine insect screen. Wind Resistance – The mesh has low wind resistance of less than 25 kg/m2 when there is a wind velocity of 100 km/hr through the screen.
