Colt EllisseSliding and Rotating Shutter System
Colt Ellisse
Excessive solar heat gain and solar glare can be costly and undesirable for building owners. Productivity is reduced and the costs of keeping a building cool through artificial means such as air conditioning can increase.
The benefits of solar shading systems are increasingly being regulated. The UK’s Building Regulations Approved Document L2 requires designers to reduce heat gain, with solar shading recommended as a preventative measure unless glass areas are minimised.
Colt external solar shading systems deal with these issues, offering designers the opportunity for distinctive architectural impact, whilst reducing solar heat gains.
COLT ELLISSE
Ellisse is a louvred hinged or slideable solar shading panel system that offers architects and contractors a versatile and practical solution to managing solar radiation and aiding privacy, whilst adding a modern architectural aesthetic.
It consists of panels built into frames which can:• Slide• Hingevertically• Hingehorizontally• Orstaystatic
Applications:• Solarshading• Glarecontrol• Privacycontrol • Ventilation
As such Ellisse is an extremely versatile system.
Since the appearance of any façade is determined by the choice and position of materials, there is an opportunity to use Ellisse creatively to enhance the architectural impact of a building.

LOUVRETYPES
A wide range of louvre types are available, depending on the building’s functional needs and the aesthetic requirements of the architect:
• Aluminiumlouvresaremanufactured from extruded, corrosion-resistant aluminiumprofilesmadeofAlMgSi0.5 alloy either with an elliptical or a C-shape. • Woodenlouvresaremanufactured fromWesternredcedarandcanbe either elliptical or oblong in shape. • Louvresareavailableinglass,withthe potential to incorporate photovoltaic (PV)electricitygeneratingcells.• Louvresarealsoavailablewith perforated fabricated metal sheets.
CONTROLS
