Glazing
- 24mm DGU consisting of 6mm toughened outer glass (soft or hard coat)
- 12mm argon gap
- 6mm clear toughened inner glass
Our louvre windows are available with advanced double-glazedunits (DGU) designed for exceptional thermal performance, safety, anddurability:
24mm Double-Glazed Unit (DGU) Configuration:
6mmToughened Outer Glass (Soft or Hard Coat)
The outer layer of the DGU is made from 6mm toughened glass, offering high impact resistance and safety. This glass can be treated with either a soft coat or hard coat, enhancing its energy efficiency by reducing heat transfer. The soft coat provides superior insulation properties, while the hard coat offers durability and ease of maintenance.
12mm Argon Gas Gap
The space between the two glass layers is filled with argon gas, a superior insulating gas that reduces thermal conductivity. This 12mm argon gap significantly enhances the window's energy efficiency by minimizing heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer, contributing to a more consistent indoor temperature and lower energy costs.
6mm Clear Toughened Inner Glass
The inner layer of the DGU is made from 6mm clear toughened glass, providing additional safety and durability. This toughened glass is designed to withstand impact and stress, and in the event of breakage, it shatters into small, blunt fragments to reduce the risk of injury.
Benefits
Enhanced Thermal Insulation: The combination of toughened glass and an argon-filled gap significantly improves the window's thermal performance, leading to energy savings and increased comfort.
Safety and Durability: Both the inner and outer layers of toughened glass provide superior impact resistance and safety, ensuring long-lasting performance.
Noise Reduction: The double-glazed configuration helps to reduce noise transmission, creating a quieter indoor environment.
UV Protection: The coating on the outer glass helps to filter harmful UV rays, protecting interiors from fading and damage.
The 24mm DGU in our louvre windows offers a perfect blend of energy efficiency, safety, and durability, making it an ideal choice for modern architectural projects that demand high performance and aesthetic appeal.

Operating Mechanism
Our louvre windows offer versatile operating mechanisms to suit various preferences and requirements:
Motorized Option
24V or 230V Motor:
For seamless and effortless operation, choose our motorized system available in both 24V and 230V options. This mechanism allows you to control the louvres with a simple switch, providing ease of use and precision. Ideal for hard-to-reach windows or for those seeking automated solutions, the motorized option ensures your louvres open and close smoothly and reliably.
Manual Options
Hand Lever
Our slimline hand lever is designed for those who prefer a manual approach. This sleek lever can be fully retracted to avoid any protrusion, ensuring a clean and unobtrusive appearance. It combines functionality with a minimalist design, perfect for maintaining a sleek look while offering easy manual control over the louvres.
Crank Handle
The crank handle provides a traditional and straightforward method of operation. It is designed for durability and ease of use, allowing you to open and close the louvres with minimal effort. The crank handle is a reliable choice for those who value simplicity and effectiveness in window control.
Each operating mechanism is crafted to complement the design and functionality of our louvre windows, ensuring a tailored solution that meets your specific needs and enhances the overall user experience.
