Timber warmth. Zero maintenance. Built to weather.
Aluminium Composite Louvers deliver the aesthetic warmth of natural timber cladding without the maintenance demands of real wood. Each profile is an aluminium composite construction with a UV-stable, factory-applied wood-grain film that resists warping, cracking and colour fade across South Africa's climate extremes.
Three standard profiles are available. Square Wave delivers strong shadow lines and bold vertical rhythm — well suited to commercial facades and residential statement walls. Rectangle Wave offers a sleek, refined profile where subtlety is required. Baffles Panel is engineered for ceiling applications — improving acoustics, managing airflow and adding architectural depth to interior spaces. All profiles are supplied ready-to-install on a clip-lock carrier system compatible with standard aluminium subframe specifications.
Seamless installation with no visible fixings on the face of the panel. Authentic wood-grain texture in multiple timber tones and solid colours. Clip-lock carrier system for rapid, precise installation. Lightweight with high structural integrity. 100% waterproof and termite-proof by construction — no sealing or treatment required. Fire-retardant (FR) core available, compliant with SANS 10400-T for multi-storey facades. Open louvre geometry enhances natural airflow and light distribution. Fully recyclable aluminium construction.
Exterior cladding on residential and commercial buildings, balcony balustrade infill, pergola roofing and side screens, gate and fence panelling, canopy soffits and low-pitch roof cladding. Interior applications include feature walls, retail shopfront fascias, ceiling baffle systems and architectural signage mounting.
Every ACP panel supplied by TILT uses the same proven multi-layer construction — engineered for flatness, weather resistance and long-term colour stability.
TILT supplies ACP in both standard PE core and non-combustible FR mineral-filled core configurations. Specify the correct core type for your project — multi-storey facade work in South Africa requires compliance with SANS 10400-T.
Reference data for the two core grades TILT specifies. Physical samples and full data sheets are available on request via the Specifiers Portal.
