LANDSCAPING & EXTERNAL WORKS
THE RISING POPULARITY OF HOUSE AWNINGS ACROSS EUROPE
A national lockdown combined with some of the best weather the UK has ever experienced has resulted in the demand for external shading systems ( in particular house awnings ) skyrocket over the last 18 months – a trend which shows no signs of slowing down .
A house awning attaches to the side of a property and extends and retracts using spring tensioned folding arms which keep the fabric taut . Not only do awnings provide instant shade and shelter from all types of weather externally , but they also ensure a comfortable indoor living space in the room adjacent to where they are positioned .
They eliminate bright light to prevent glare , filter UV rays to stop furnishings from fading and offer additional privacy . When equipped with optional accessories such as LED lighting and infra-red heating , this particular type of shading allows all types of outside spaces to be utilised 365 days a year .
A recent report carried out by Fact . MR reveals that outside the US , Germany boasts the biggest market for ‘ haus awnings ’ in Europe , followed closely by the UK and then Italy . According to the report , the retractable awnings industry is projected to continue growing at a consistent rate until 2028 , at which point demand for this type of shading will be at its peak .
With the ability to provide a quick , easy and affordable solution to transform any outdoor space , awnings are not only ideal for residential properties but commercial , too . Both practical and stylish , retractable awnings provide instant shade and shelter and can be designed and built to each application ’ s exact requirements .
