The Gibus Med Twist bioclimatic pergola has been designed to obtain extremely clean stylistic lines in a modular solution, capable of enhancing any type of architectural style over time.
The aluminium louver blades have motorised movement and can rotate from the horizontal closed position, which guarantees excellent seal from rain, to the open position of varying degrees ranging from 0-135. Sun exposure on the external side of the blades generates heat, which induces natural air movement from the bottom upwards, returning a refreshing breeze to the environment. Internal blade insulation can also be added to reduce the sound of rain on the roof by up to 70%.
The patented Side Seal between the blades and along the perimeter, together with their particular shape, ensures rainwater effortlessly flows to the ground through the integrated drainpipes. Each blade, along its entire length, has a seal that the adjacent blade rests on when closed, guaranteeing water and air cannot get into the structure.
The Med Twist is available with a range of optional extras including sliding glass doors, outdoor drop blinds, three unique configurations of LED lighting and electric heaters.
Configuration is available in the Freestanding Island version with four or six posts, or in the Wall Mounted versions, two or four posts. Unlimited coupling options available to create coverage for larger outdoor seating areas.
Movement of the louver blades is operated by remote control with variable power depending on the pergola dimensions.
