Independent Ballistic Testing
Ventilation Grilles are often required for cooling and to provide air transfer around all types of plant and equipment. Ballistic louvers (sometimes also referred to as bullet louvers or bullet louvres) provide ballistic or bullet protection and also air ventilation at the same time. A ballistic or bullet air vent as shown above can be installed either within the recess of a wall or panel, or even within a doorset as shown below. The bullet louvre vents can also be full door height and therefore produce a ballistic protected louver doorset for added flexibility and also airflow at the same time.

Blast Louvres
Blast louvres are manufactured to allow the free passage of air throughout buildings. They can also be used as a visual screen to hide plant and machinery.
In addition, they built so as not to break apart when subjected to a blast load which would produce fragmentation. If a standard louvre collapsed under blast load there would be serious risk of injury to people and damage to property. Blast louvres are intended to prevent that from happening.
Blast louvres can also be used to hide plant and machinery but offer protection from blast at the same time.
Also available in factory Polyester Powder Coat finishes to various RAL colours
Available with or without flanges for fixing directly into masonry openings
Ballistic Louvres
Ballistic louvres are manufactured to allow free movement of air throughout buildings.
They are often used in military establishments along with other ballistic protection to vent plant rooms.
In addition, they can be incorporated into HVAC systems for offices and guard houses and other areas where ventilation and ballistic protection are needed at the same time.
