DPL – Louvre Grating
DPL Louvre Gratings use precision-angled filler bars (30°, 45° or 60°) to provide controlled airflow, privacy, shading and sightline management. Designed for architectural screening, ventilation and solar control, they deliver a clean, modern façade profile while balancing performance and visual refinement.
ABOUT
DPL LOUVRE GRATINGS
Architectural Screening. Solar Shading. Controlled Ventilation.
Dejo DPL Louvre Gratings provide precise visual control, airflow management, and shading performance for modern Australian architecture. Designed in Europe and supported locally by the Mentis Architectural Product Division, DPL combines architectural refinement with engineered strength, giving designers a clean and uniform façade solution for commercial, civic, and transport environments.
OVERVIEW
DPL Louvre Gratings use angled filler bars (30°, 45° or 60°) set within a pressure-locked frame to create sharp sightlines, consistent shading behaviour, and functional ventilation.
They are ideal for façade cladding, plant screening, mechanical ventilation zones, and internal architectural panels where a visually continuous surface is required without compromising performance.
DPL panels are available in multiple bar dimensions, mesh configurations, and finishes — enabling control over transparency, light diffusion, airflow, and privacy.
