Solarlux SDL Acubis Glass Canopy

A FLAT CANOPY FOR DESIGN PURISTS

The SDL Acubis flat canopy is a winner in terms of design and functionality which can be built as a stand-alone unit or an extension of an existing building.

Then, with the optional addition of vertical glass panels, it becomes a non-insulated glass house to protect you against all types of weather, from all sides.

The internal structural members of the non-insulated profile system lend the canopy an air of elegance.

PITCH PERFECT

The 2° roof pitch is barely visible to the naked eye but is enough to ensure that water drains off the canopy.

A low, single-piece wall joint lends the canopy a lightweight feel and makes on-site assembly a breeze.

The SDL Acubis is the recipient of a “special mention” at the German Design Awards.
