Greenwood Louvre Ltd

Acting as a fundamental element of a fire protection strategy, fire curtains and smoke curtain systems are designed to deploy in the event of a fire to aid in compartmentalisation while supporting the architectural integrity of a building from design through to operation. Available independently or as part of a wider smoke management and fire safety strategy, Greenwood Louvre is able to work from the design stage to ensure fire protection enhances performance whilst supporting architectural design. Fire Curtains: Usually specified in larger buildings, such as theatres, shopping centres, exhibition halls and so on, fire curtains are an essential part of fire protection. Fire-resistant curtains serve three main purposes in a building: they limit the initial growth of a fire, they prevent the spread of the fire, and also to protect valuable escape routes. Installed due to their support of architectural design by still allowing for open, airy spaces, fire curtains provide a protective barrier against fire and harmful smoke. Smoke Curtains: Designed as part of a wider smoke and fire protection strategy, smoke curtains are usually placed in specific areas to guide harmful smoke away from exit routes and towards ventilation units. The key difference between a smoke curtain and a fire curtain is that a smoke curtain does not descend fully to ground level as not to interfere with the means of escape. #greenwoodlouvre #supplyandinstallation #louvres #ventilationlouvres #architecturallouvres #acousticlouvres #solarshading #smokeventilation #naturalventilation #carparkventilation #firecurtain #smokecurtain #controlpanel #accessequipment

Project Profile: Hampton by Hilton, Edinburgh When it came to upgrading on-site fire safety, Greenwood Louvre was consulted for advanced solutions which wouldn’t compromise on building aesthetics or guest comfort. In the event of a fire, compartmentalising the blaze helps to prevent the spread of smoke and flames to give occupants time to escape and emergency services the time to safely enter – but compartmentalisation isn’t always straightforward where large, spacious interiors are concerned. Open spaces can lead to faster spread of fire and smoke where the right safety measures are not taken. To support the hotel’s fire strategy, Greenwood Louvre supplied and installed fire curtains which will deploy within seconds upon activation to hamper the movement of fire in an emergency. Made of fire resistant materials, Greenwood Louvre’s fire curtains mean that even in the Hampton by Hilton’s most grandiose open spaces, fire compartmentalisation is only ever moments away. To provide added protection, and to offer ventilation during day to day operation, Greenwood Louvre also installed a series of advanced smoke vents at the hotel. As well as helping to vent smoke during a fire, Greenwood Louvre’s smoke vents serve a dual purpose by promoting efficient ventilation of air in normal operation – ensuring that visitors enjoy a comfortable and consistent indoor environment.

Ensuring safe access to smoke and natural ventilation solutions, particularly in high rise buildings, is essential to a system’s ongoing regular maintenance. Greenwood Louvre is able to supply and fit a wide range of access equipment to meet working-at height requirements while offering additional benefits. Access equipment that is strong, durable and safe ensures the practical long-term reliability of smoke management and ventilation solutions by allowing maintenance staff to safely carry out regular inspections and essential maintenance. Greenwood Louvre has a selection of access equipment suitable for both commercial and residential uses. We offer a wide range of fixed vertical ladders to allow easy access to your building, rooftop and platforms. Our fixed vertical ladders have a range of safety features, such as safety cages for added fall protection. Our high-quality, aesthetically pleasing prefabricated flat glass rooflights open to 70° angle. We also offer sliding for roof access hatches for use in areas where high wind loadings may occur. For a more minimalistic and aesthetic look, a low profile rooflight is the perfect choice. The flush design also ensures efficient drainage of rainwater, thus guaranteeing a full lifetime without deterioration. GL-EMH-Hatch roof access hatches provide safe access to and from roof areas, and can be supplied with a glazed rooflight or a solid insulated cover. They are particularly suited to apartments and commercial prop. Please get in touch for more details. #accessequipment #buildingmaintenance #commercialproperties #naturalventilation #smokeventilation #ventilationsystems #highrisebuildings #workingatheight #fixedladders #accesshatch #greenwoodlouvre

As focus within building design shifts towards the impact of the internal environment on its occupants, increased attention has been paid to the architectural benefits of louvres. Although able to serve a range of purposes, the main aim of an architectural louvre is to allow the movement of air into a building, while prohibiting the entry of obtrusive water and debris. Architectural louvres are a specified design choice by many architects and developers due to their support of a building’s integrity and aesthetic enhancement. Beyond ventilation, architectural louvres also provide solar shading and help to reduce solar gain on building facades – further improving the interior environment for occupants. With extensive expertise in the manufacture, installation and maintenance of louvres, Greenwood Louvre’s market-leading product range can assist architects and building contractors to ensure the louvre looks good, performs well and is practical to install and maintain. The Greenwood Louvre range provides access to an array of architectural louvre, acoustic louvre and solar shades to enhance the internal environment and external appearance of a building. In addition to the standard product portfolio, Greenwood Louvre’s technical team can support industry partners in the following elements of detailed design: ➡ Metallic, painted and plastic finishes ➡ Fixing Techniques ➡ Solar shades and bioclimatic pergolas ➡ Weathering guards and the restriction of insect ingress ➡ Acoustic screening and dampers #architecturallouvre #solarshading #louvre #louver #acousticlouvre #airflow #ventilation #naturalventilation #smokeventilation

Project Profile: High Performance Louvres For Brentford Community Football Stadium Health and safety standards in football stadiums have improved significantly over the past few decades, and Brentford Community Stadium now stands at the cutting edge of arena design. Greenwood Louvre supplied high performance louvres to deliver outstanding ventilation and comprehensive weather protection and screening. The stadium’s striking design helps it to stand out against the backdrop of the River Thames, and it was important that the louvres supplied would complement the existing aesthetics. Supported by Greenwood Louvre solutions, Brentford Community Stadium is well-ventilated for both the comfort and safety of its visitors. As well as providing “Class A” high-performance rain defence, the louvres supplied will ensure a comfortable temperature is maintained within the player, back of house and hospitality facilities.

Primarily used for noise and vibration reduction, an acoustic louvre also offers airflow and vision control. Primarily used for environments that produce high levels of noise and/or vibrations, these versatile additions are commonly used where mechanical systems and services are present. Acoustic louvres are frequently used for generator plants, heavy mechanical plant rooms, hospitals, schools, public buildings, compressor rooms and other areas that require extra breeze or a decrease in noise. Acoustic louvres reduce noise by creating an alternative path for the noise source going to the receiver. Infill materials assist the noise reductions. These resourceful grate-style additions to buildings offer essential intake and exhaust airflow, allowing the area to have a constant flow of clean air. Natural ventilation is a great way to reduce energy costs and provide clean air to your facility. With a multitude of different types and uses, the right acoustic louvre option for you will depend on which benefits you need the most. #greenwoodlouvre #supplyandinstallation #louvres #ventilationlouvres #architecturallouvres #acousticlouvres #solarshading #smokeventilation #naturalventilation #carparkventilation #firecurtain #smokecurtain #controlpanel #accessequipment
