The Italian made Gibus Med Viva was designed to create comfort for time spent outdoors. Sleek and modern in design, characterised by a solid painted aluminium support structure, superior quality finishing with no visible screws or joins.
The fabric used is PVC Opatex manufactured by Giofex in Italy. The waterproof PVC anti UV blackout cover protects against heat, frost, weather and temperature changes. The fabric is stretched and opened by section bars which slide along tracks, driven by a high resistance toothed belt that rotates on stainless steel ball bearings, with great carrying capacity.
Rainwater is discharged through the integrated front gutter, down the drains incorporated in the and out to the ground. Installation must be with a minimum slope of between 8% and 19%, depending on the projection, to ensure proper drainage.
Glisse or Skate glass doors or vertical drop shade screens are optional extras for all year round protection. The choice of three integrated LED lighting options and heating can also be added.
Configuration is available with a minimum of two front posts or multiple modules for larger outdoor coverage.
Operation can be manual, by crank, or by the motorised Somfy system with standard activation IO-Homecontrol remote control. Installation of an automated sensor option is available to detect wind strength if it exceeds over 40 km/h. The control system will automatically manage the extension and retraction of the fabric, even when you are not there.
