BMS Integrated Louvre Window System from Safetyline Jalousie

Canberra Region Cancer Centre, ACT

The Canberra Region Cancer Centre is an outpatient medical facility for patients receiving their medications intravenously. The facility delivers a highly controlled environment ensuring that there is no cross contamination of air entering or escaping the building.

The superior seals featured around each Safetyline Jalousie louvre blade provide a perfect solution for this controlled environment. At the same time the ability for the louvres to open when triggered by the Building Management System provided a clever technical solution for their Fire and Emergency System.

Safetyline Jalousie louvre windows have been installed in windows located adjacent to the fire escape stairways and are used to provide an "air relief" grill. In the case of an emergency the louvre windows will open up automatically decreasing the air pressure within the building. The lower air pressure in the building will stop smoke from entering the escape stairs where higher air pressure is maintained.

Safetyline Jalousie's louvre windows delivered a solution that not only maintained the quality of the air conditioning system but also enhanced the aesthetics of the building. The Safetyline Jalousie louvre window system is a perfect match for the recessed window design of the building and creates a frameless external appearance.
