Common Uses of this product:

• Sun screen, privacy screen, wind break, glare reduction.

Typical Installation:

For maximum shading effect, TrussForte Louvamesh should be installed with the LWM horizontal and the strands sloping outward and down.  The expanded mesh can also be installed in any other plane that may be architecturally designed for various lighting effect, while still allowing natural airflow.

To help designers customise placement and positioning of Louvamesh for tailored shading, we have supplied graphical literature for the free air space at various angles of incidence.  Please refer to the individual specification sheets for each product alternative.
