Description
The Next Evolution of Cerberus
The next evolution of the Cerberus platform is underway.
Introducing the Cerberus Alpine Series — a New Zealand–focused aluminium louvre system currently in development. It is designed to combine structural engineering, environmental responsibility, and local manufacturing capability.
This is not simply another colour or configuration update.
Instead, it signals a shift toward locally aligned, lower-carbon outdoor architecture built specifically for New Zealand conditions.
Built with New Zealand Aluminium
A defining feature of the Cerberus Alpine Series is its connection to New Zealand aluminium supply.
Our aluminium extrusion partner operates an advanced remelt process, where recyclable aluminium is converted back into new billets for extrusion. This closed-loop approach delivers several important advantages:
• High recycled aluminium content
• Reduced embodied carbon footprint
• Consistent material quality
• Local supply chain alignment
In practical terms, the Cerberus Alpine Series is being developed with material circularity and environmental impact firmly in view.
Independently Verified Carbon Performance
The New Zealand aluminium extruder supporting the Alpine Series has achieved third-party Toitū® carbonreduce product certification through Toitū Envirocare.
Key verified metrics include:
• 1.31 kg CO₂e per kg of aluminium
(based on direct emissions and energy use — Scope 1 and Scope 2)
• 8.13 kg CO₂e per kg of aluminium (full lifecycle)
Independently verified through Toitū’s carbonreduce certification
These figures place the material platform used in the Alpine Series among the lower-carbon aluminium pathways available for architectural outdoor systems.
Importantly, this is not a marketing claim. It is externally verified environmental data.
Designed for New Zealand Conditions
Full specifications will be released closer to launch. However, the Cerberus Alpine Series is already being developed around the environmental realities of New Zealand, including:
• High UV exposure
• Coastal salt environments
• Variable wind zones
• Heavy rainfall events
• Seasonal thermal movement
The Alpine Series continues the Cerberus philosophy of engineering-first outdoor design, where structural logic, material behaviour, and long-term durability are considered together.
Where the Alpine Series Sits
Within the broader Cerberus range:
-
Cerberus Standard — core engineered platform
-
Cerberus Plus — expanded integration and capability
-
Cerberus Alpine Series — NZ-aligned, lower-carbon evolution (coming soon)
The Alpine Series is positioned for projects where local sourcing, environmental accountability, and engineered performance are all priorities.
What to Expect Next
As development progresses, further information will be released, including:
• Structural specifications
• Available configurations
• NZ supply timelines
The Cerberus Alpine Series is currently in the pre-launch phase, with updates to follow.
Final Perspective
Outdoor structures are entering a new phase — one where performance, longevity, and environmental impact are evaluated together.
The Cerberus Alpine Series reflects that shift.
By combining New Zealand aluminium sourcing, verified carbon performance, and the established Cerberus engineering platform, this upcoming system is being developed for projects that demand both structural confidence and environmental awareness.
Coming soon from Apollo NZ.
