Following In The Footsteps Of Success
AluVent is a new range of trickle ventilators from Glazpart to support the aluminium sector. It follows in the footsteps of the Bi-Fold Vent last year. Fabricators can hardly keep up with installer demand.
The vent can be supplied immediately on order. It is versatile with a sleek design that allows it to be frame or sash mounted, where its low profile sits seamlessly and unobtrusively on the window or door, making it pleasing to homeowners who aren’t always keen on trickle vents.
Based on solid expertise
The AluVent range is an evolution of Glazpart’s trickle vent portfolio in response to industry feedback from companies in the aluminium window and door sector who wanted vents that lived up to Glapart’s already establish vents for PVC-U windows and doors.
Sustainability
Made from low carbon aluminium, the AluVent extrusions are produced using partially recycled billet which is certified and fully traceable with up to 25% recycled aluminium content.
Acoustics
The AluVent is fitted with a foam strip on the inside of the vents closure plate which reduces cold spots, helps seal the rout and improves the noise reduction performance in the closed position.
The vent is designed to be fitted on either a 13mm or 10mm rout height. It is available in three sizes. The AluVent’s performance will meet the background ventilation room rates as defined in building regulations (Approved Document F – means of ventilation). Equivalent Area (EQA) is used, instead of free area, for the sizing of trickle ventilators as it is a better measure of a ventilator’s air flow performance.
Clever features
Among several smart features, the AluVent comes with ingeniously designed profile end caps that clip into the grille, locking it into position and so avoiding separation from the aluminium profiles (lid or canopy) and allowing for screw fixing to the profile.
With looks in mind, the AluVent is powder coated aluminium with RAL colour matched end caps as well as traditional black and white, which are fitted easily in place without the need for any tools.
There is also an unassembled mill finish option so fabricators can powder coat to an installer’s specific colour request.
Aluminium commitment
Dean Bradley, Glazpart Sales Director said: “The AluVent is a welcome addition to our trickle vent range and once again demonstrates our continuous commitment to the aluminium sector.”
Picture: The Aluvent has been available for delivery since 3 August 2026. Demand has already proven to be remarkably high as Glazpart has been taking forward orders for some months from aluminium companies keen to get their hands on it.
