Acoustic Louvre Screens

Acoustic louvre screens are purpose-built barriers designed to reduce noise from mechanical plant while allowing essential airflow. Commonly installed around rooftop HVAC units and other plant equipment, these screens help manage sound levels without compromising ventilation or access. When paired with plant decks and rooftop access systems, acoustic screens offer a complete, compliant solution for safe maintenance access and environmental control - ideal for commercial buildings, hospitals, data centres, and high-density urban developments.

Acoustic Louvre Screens for HVAC and Plant Equipment

Acoustic louvre screens are an effective solution for controlling noise from mechanical services such as HVAC units, air conditioning systems, cooling towers, and other plant equipment. These systems are designed to strike the right balance between acoustic performance, ventilation, and service access.

Key Benefits:

• Noise Reduction Without Compromising Airflow
  Louvre blades are angled to absorb and deflect sound while allowing adequate ventilation for equipment performance. This makes them ideal for densely populated or noise-sensitive environments such as schools, hospitals, commercial buildings, and mixed-use developments.
• Customised for Equipment and Layout
  Acoustic screens can be designed to suit rooftop plant decks, ground-level installations, or enclosed platforms. Each system is tailored to fit around the specific equipment footprint, site constraints, and access requirements.
• Engineered for Durability
  Manufactured using corrosion-resistant materials such as powder-coated aluminium or galvanised steel, louvre screens are built to endure harsh weather conditions and high UV exposure. Options are available for coastal or corrosive environments.
• Seamless Integration with Access Systems
  Louvre screens can be integrated into plant decks, walkways, and rooftop access platforms to provide a single, cohesive system. This allows for safer and more efficient servicing while maintaining the visual and acoustic shielding.
• Wind Load and Structural Compliance
  Systems are engineered and certified to meet relevant Australian Standards, including wind load requirements for rooftop installations and structural integrity for long-term safety.

Designed for Performance, Compliance, and Aesthetic Integration

In addition to noise control and airflow optimisation, acoustic louvre screens can also contribute to the architectural appearance of a site. Powder-coated finishes are available in a range of standard and custom colours — such as white, light grey, dark grey, and black — allowing screens to blend seamlessly with surrounding façades, rooftop lines, or branded colour schemes.

Whether the goal is visual concealment, compliance with council acoustic requirements, or alignment with project design standards, Safetylyne ensures every solution meets both functional and aesthetic expectations.

All acoustic screen systems are designed and engineered in accordance with relevant Australian Standards, including AS/NZS 1170 for structural loading and wind performance. Acoustic ratings can be tailored to suit project-specific requirements, and Safetylyne works with consultants, builders, and facility managers to ensure documentation is in place for compliance at every stage.

End-to-End Capabilities for Complex Sites

Safetylyne offers complete solutions that integrate acoustic louvre screens with elevated plant decks, walkways, access stairs, handrails, and fall protection systems. This simplifies project coordination by consolidating the structural, safety, and acoustic components into a single engineered system — ideal for retrofit upgrades or new construction projects.
