The Leopard roof shading system is designed to be fitted on the outside of conservatory roofs
and glass facades.

With its counter tension system, the Leopard is typically used to shade generously sized, plane and rectangular glass areas - the glazings slope doesn’t make any difference.

There are many advantages of such a shading system to control solar energy. Mounting the Leopard Roof Awning to the external façade of a building controls heat gain and natural light more efficiently than internal products.The awning is extended by means of an integrated positive lift, which guarantees a tautly drawn cloth in any position.

These awnings are mounted flush with the glazing. They run on guides fixed to the glazing bars and retract into the head box. The fabric is maintained under tension which is accomplished using drive mechanisms and spring tensioners in the bottom or side guide rails. At 154mm high and 235mm long, the stylish and compact box protects both the cloth and mechanism from any weather factors.

The extension of the awning takes place through the integrated positive lift (power-spring mechanism in the roller tube), which tightens the cloth in any position and makes the awning remarkably resistant to gusts and gale.

Due to small lateral fabric deduction measurements, systems, even coupled ones, can be realized without any lateral light leakage, a real plus point for the Leopard.

These awnings are motorised.

Solar Shading & Screening is a proven method of significantly reducing, and in many cases, eliminating solar heat gain. It effectively forms a barrier between the sun and the glass without reducing light into the building and vision out of the building for the occupants. By forming this barrier, the sun does not reach the glass and in turn create solar heat gain within.

Solar shading is not a new concept. It has been around for centuries starting with fabric awnings, more commonly seen on villa style buildings in Europe.

Today there are literally dozens of options, from modern interpretations of external fabric roller blinds to intelligent fin style louvre systems that, thanks to their own built in control system, follow the sun to achieve optimum protection whilst allowing maximum visibility.
