Retractable Canopies
These buildings are made of aluminium and have a retractable fabric roof. These allow you to open up an area during the hot summer months yet close the roof if it appears like it's going to rain. Electric operation, lighting, water management, and roller walls will be available as options (dependent on design).
Bioclimatic Canopies
Bioclimatic canopies are the most popular constructions on the market right now. They have a rotating louvred canopy that opens at predetermined angles to provide shade while also encouraging ventilation. Lighting, water management, and roller walls will be available as options (dependent on design).
Fixed Canopies
These buildings have an aluminium frame and a polycarbonate or tensioned PVC cloth roof. They are a low-cost solution to cover big regions and are perfect for the education sector. Post protectors, water management, and roller barriers will be available as options (dependent on design).
Roller Walls
Vertically retractable walls allow you to completely enclose a space or offer a windbreak. This permits you to utilise certain locations all year. Manual or electric operation, as well as transparent or opaque walling textiles, will be available (dependent on design).
Awnings
Awnings allow you to cover large areas quickly and easily by retracting entirely into a cassette. The Dutch awning is a basic covering for a door or window that will bring shape and colour to your structure. Lighting and operating options include manual or electric operation (dependent on design).
Jumbo Umbrellas
For commercial premises, a jumbo umbrella enables you to cover large areas. A central post means that the area will remain free from obstruction. Options include fixed or moveable bases, heating and lighting (dependent on design).
Post Protection
We all know that children will run into things. With our post protectors you can minimise the risk by enclosing the canopy legs (or any post you have on site) within a colourful pad. Easy to fit or remove with a waterproof PVC outer cover, these are a must for an educational setting.
Bespoke Structures
As the name says, there are structures which we can offer as a one-off or which just don?t fit into another category. Over the years we have supplied a huge retractable sail structure (the largest of its kind in the UK), replaced the fabric on a bespoke four-pole sail-shade as well as installed an Onda roof system into a stainless steel rooftop structure!
Temporary Structures
Breaking from our normal permanently installed canopies, we now offer a range of temporary structures in association with our Italian partners. They are aimed predominantly at the Hospitality sector however they can be equally useful in schools, leisure centres or even gardens.
