At Acran Sound Control, we design and manufacture industrial acoustic louvres that provide proven noise attenuation without compromising on essential airflow.

Acoustic louvres, also known as sound attenuating louvres, are ventilation components designed to reduce the transmission of sound through airflows. Made of multiple rows of parallel blades, acoustic louvres are angled to allow air to pass through while also reflecting and diffusing sound waves.

Acoustic louvre screens are commonly used in HVAC systems, where they help to prevent the transmission of noise from external sources, such as traffic, into a building while still allowing for proper air circulation. They can also be used in commercial and industrial settings to reduce the amount of noise that escapes from ventilation systems.

Louvres are bespoke engineered by Acran Sound Control to provide high acoustic performance and low air flow restriction. The acoustic louvres also provide a satisfying external aesthetic finish whilst maintaining a sturdy appearance when installed into steelwork and pre-formed openings.

Common Uses For Acoustic Louvre Screens


Acoustic louvres offer many sound and ventilation solutions including:
  • Plant room ventilation
  • Industrial & processing plant ventilation apertures
  • Allowing relief air from factories & workshops
  • Ventilating acoustic equipment enclosures
  • Air conditioning installations & cooling towers
  • Power generation equipment
  • Outdoor air ventilation systems
  • Refrigeration plants
