Rectangles, 96E, Modern Villa, Waalwijk, NL

A good example of colour anodising is this project in Waalwijk, the Netherlands. Here, no fewer than 15 windows have been fitted with slat systems by Sunshield. Four in the front, three on the left, six in the back and two on the right. All rectangles.

The owners selected the 96-E louver, a blade with a sleek shape. These louvers are first brushed and then anodized in Alubronze 04. The other aluminum parts are coated in RAL 9005. During the coating, a fine structure is added to the RAL powder. This gives the coated parts a fine relief.

So in this project, all aluminum parts have a relief. The slats by brushing, the other aluminum parts because of the fine structure. The plastic parts are black, which fits well with the jet black RAL colour.

All 15 slat systems are equipped with their own motor. These motors are connected to the home automation system, this was already present. Now all louver systems can be controlled centrally.
