Installation of louvers O-210 for the protection of a university library in Costa Rica

Today we would like to showcase a very special installation carried out at a site where the high levels of sunshine throughout the year make sun protection a top priority in the building’s design. This is the University of Costa Rica campus in the city of San José.

There, the central library has been protected by an O-210 model louvre system, a slat design intended to cover large areas on façades where it is necessary to control the amount of light entering and prevent water ingress or the effects of the wind.

Total versatility

Although in this case the unit is installed horizontally, it can also be installed vertically, depending on the technical and aesthetic requirements of the space to be protected.

Although this is a model that can be motorised, in this case the decision was taken to install the slats with a specific orientation using fixing systems, thereby adapting them to the specific requirements of the façade in a geographical area where sunlight is virtually constant during daylight hours.

Ability to tackle all kinds of challenges

The ability to choose from the brand’s wide range of products, designed to meet the needs of architects of all kinds, is one of the main reasons why the Ministry of Public Education places its trust in a company such as Giménez Ganga.

A company capable of providing solutions to any kind of requirement, wherever it may arise.

An infinite variety of colours

The use of the highest-quality aluminium, produced in accordance with the most stringent international standards, combined with an endless range of colour options – as can be seen in this installation – guarantees optimum performance at all times.

The technical advice that professionals receive from the brand is an added bonus that ensures the products are always installed to meet the performance requirements of the project.

Performance that ensures comprehensive protection for life.
