Retrospan

Retrospan is a high‑performance outdoor structure with a built‑in motor for smooth, effortless operation. Its waterproof PVC fabric channels rainwater into a dedicated gutter system, which then discharges through the columns for efficient drainage. Waterproofing strips along the tracks prevent sideways leakage, ensuring complete weather protection. Combining durability with modern design, it’s ideal for homes, cafés, and outdoor lounges seeking year‑round comfort and style.
