EBSA is thrilled to be named as a AGWA design awards state finalist for Queensland in the Most Innovative Window Solution category for the MP2 Opposed Opening Louvres.

The Schneider MP2 louvre, initially introduced in 2012, quickly emerged as the preferred choice in the Australian market as thermal performance requirements escalated with updates to the National Construction Code (NCC). Its exceptional features make it a standout solution for contemporary architectural projects.

The product of choice on many landmark projects, the MP2 is unlike any other louvre system you are likely to have encountered. These louvres have withstood rigorous testing, including passing cyclone tests at 32m/s and being the sole louvre to meet the AS4284 test. Additionally, the MP2 louvre excelled in an earthquake test for a recent project.

Already recognised as the top performing louvre on the market, and we elevated the louvre to the next level with the release of the Award-winning MP2 Opposed Opening Louvre (MP2-FL-OP).

The MP2-FL-OP emerged from extensive collaboration with our client for the Seafarers Project to address specific needs, notably maintaining unobstructed views even when open. Overcoming challenges such as sightline obstruction and water ingress, we engineered a solution that combines innovative blade movement with high water rating. Inspired by previous earthquake testing, we refined the drive system for simultaneous or separate operation of top and bottom blades. This two-year development journey culminated in the creation of 111 Louvres for the Seafarers Project, showcasing the adaptability and performance of the MP2 Opposed Opening Louvre.

PHIVE (5 Parramatta Square, Sydney) stands as a testament to sustainable design, earning a prestigious 6-star Green Star accreditation, a significant marker for public buildings. Designed with an eye toward eco-consciousness, PHIVE boast a layout that encourages thermal comfort and minimises reliance on traditional air conditioning, underlining Parramatta City Council’s commitment to operating PHIVE as a carbon-neutral entity.

EBSA is honoured to have contributed to this landmark project by incorporating our energy-efficient Schneider BT90 thermally broken double-glazed louvres and digital CPS-M control panel into the building’s façade. These elements work seamlessly with the building management and control system (BMCS), enhancing air quality and facilitating the removal of aerosol particles through the use of thermal chimneys and operable louvres.

Positioned at the core of Parramatta CBD, this Civic Centre not only serves as the community, cultural and civic hub but also sets a benchmark for government building sustainability in the state. Its design minimises the need for artificial heating and cooling, emphasizing environmental performance through sustainable design principles.

EBSA has a range of air quality sensors that can be retrofitted to existing projects and work in conjunction with new or existing automated facade systems to extend the benefits if improved air quality and environmental control to educational and professional environments.

A brand-new entrance welcomed commuters on Monday, marking a remarkable recovery from the devastating fire incident in Surry Hills six months ago. The entrance, which was just days away from opening in May, faced extensive damage due to the nearby inferno that engulfed a seven-story building on Randle Street.

During the fire and its aftermath, falling debris from the heritage-listed building caused significant structural and water damage to the entrance. Notably, a wall collapsed on the Schneider MP2 Bomb Blast Louvres supplied and installed by EBSA, alongside the D+H Mechatronic CPS-M Failsafe smoke control panel.

In a testament to their quality, the MP2 louvres, engineered for a 7.0Kpa structural load (Blast Rating), remained operational despite the catastrophic event.

A huge congratulations to Fender Katsalidis on Midtown Centre receiving the Property Council of Australia GHD Design Award for the ‘Best Sustainable Development’.
Designed in line with the Brisbane City Council’s “Buildings that Breathe” guidelines for a passive, subtropical design. Midtown Centre includes natural ventilation, operable windows and doors, an abundance of plants and ample outdoor space.

The intricate and innovative merging of two 20-storey structures, as opposed to the demolition and new build, saved an estimated 11,000 tonnes of carbon emissions: the equivalent of running the building fully occupied, carbon-neutral for four years.

EBSA was thrilled to be engaged by SRG Global to undertake the supply and installation of the Schneider LF550 automated single-glazed louvre system and D+H Mechatronic CPS-M control panels on this unique project, delivering natural ventilation to the building.
SRG Global’s façade division undertook the design, supply and installation of the engineered curtain wall facades for the project.

The building achieved a 6-Star Green Star Rating from the Green Building Council of Australia. 6-Stars represents the highest standard (World Leadership) in environmentally sustainable building practices.
