Arm awnings

Maximum coverage with minimum bulk

The shaded spaces generated by Pratic retractable arm awnings are truly extensive. The generous dimensions of the stretch fabric allow the exterior of private homes and accommodation facilities to be sheltered from the sun, whilst guaranteeing minimal space requirements thanks to the headbox, which can be installed on the wall or ceiling to contain the awning when closed. Ellipse and Muse together with the models T-Way, T-Code and T-Hide of the T-Project line take advantage of the exceptional aesthetics of the headbox, a true design element that also conceals the electrical components.

T-Hide

The T-Hide awning has folding arms and a motorised front valance. Large and functional, it rationalizes the structure in an aluminium box with LED lighting.

T-Code

Ceiling or wall-mounted, the T-Code awning with folding arms stands out for its rational and refined design. When rolled up, it’s sheltered by the aluminium box and can be enriched with dimmable LEDs.

T-Way

Either ceiling or wall-mounted, T-way shades the underlying space thanks to its essential structure with folding arms, that can be equipped with LED lighting and a hood to protect the canvas.

Ellisse

The Ellisse awning takes its name from the unique aluminium box. Compatible with home automation systems, the arms’ operation can be manual or automated.

Musa

The Musa awning rationalises its structure in a practical and essential box. Customisable in every detail, it offers comfort and protection through the arms operation system.

Flex 300

Designed to resist to wind stress, the Flex awning has a solid frame with folding arms adjusted by the Flexcontrol device; the operation can be either manual or motorised.

Flex Box

Flex Box is the awning with folding arms resisting to strong wind stress. The frame is discreet and rationalizes all its components inside a practical aluminium box.

Flex 375

With its essential design, the Flex 375 folding arm awning screens large outdoor areas, while maintaining exceptional resistance against wind stress.

PE 60/15

Simple and practical. This is PE 60/15, the folding arm awning with standard valance enhancing the open-air space while giving an excellent sun protection.

PE 15

Protection from the sun, but also refined furnishing. The PE 15 awning creates new shaded spaces for the outdoors, its frame with folding arms has an essential design and it can be wall or ceiling mounted.

Home automation solutions for handling operation

In addition to the aesthetic value, the headbox combines functionality and technology. Models such as T-Way, T-Hide and T-Code are equipped with a special arm tensioning system with motorised movement activated via multi-channel remote controls. In addition, thanks to the innovative Connexoon system, it is even possible to activate the operation of the awnings with retractable arms from your smartphone via a dedicated app. A touch is all it takes to move the front panel forward or backward, without the fabric ever losing its perfect tensioning. With the same gesture, the valance is lowered, creating a nicely private space.

Likewise controllable via smartphone is the awning lighting, integrated in the lower profile of the headbox by means of LED strips with dimmable light offering high illuminating power as yet another Pratic innovation that responds intelligently to the need for light beneath the blind.

Technical characteristics and performance of the Pratic retractable arm awning

Our retractable arm awnings can be adjusted in terms of tilt and extension, guaranteeing perfect tensioning of the fabric at all times and in all positions, designed to withstand unforeseen wind and weather stress. The patented FlexControl device, with which a large part of the Pratic range is equipped, has been tested in the Pininfarina Wind Tunnel and has confirmed qualities of robustness and effectiveness in extremely realistic dynamic conditions. With this system, the Flex elastomer positioned within the arm compartment compresses and cushions movements caused by the wind, protecting the entire blind structure. This technology allows the blind to extend, guaranteeing performance and robustness at all times. Yet, despite the generosity of the covered spaces that can be created, the awnings with retractable arms are distinguished by their extreme temperance and formal cleanliness, with all components perfectly enclosed in the invisible headbox. An advanced design, enriched by the quality of the materials and beauty of the fabrics used, a palette of colours and shades in tune with the clean lines of the forms.
