Dutch Awning
An elegant awning that gets your business noticed.
The Dutch awning brings a touch of timeless elegance to any façade. Closed along the sides for a refined, tailored silhouette that also blocks the lateral sun and weather a standard awning lets straight through.
It can handle wind and rain better than a normal folding-arm awning, with a wide range of refined shapes available, including fully custom designs, made to measure for any building.
For shops and hospitality businesses that want a terrace or a storefront that looks as elegant as it performs.

Elegance That Gets Noticed
A Dutch awning adds elegant character to your façade. A refined, tailored shape that helps your business catch the eye. With custom branding it turns sun protection into a graceful, eye-catching extension of your storefront.
All-Weather Protection
Closed along the sides, the Dutch awning blocks the low, lateral sun and weather that a standard awning lets straight through. It handles wind and driving rain noticeably better, staying usable in conditions that would send a standard awning back into its housing.
A Shape For Every Style
Decades of craftsmanship, resulted in Retrosun producing a wide variety of Dutch awning shapes and silhouettes. From rounded, classic profiles to clean, modern lines. Fully custom shapes are available for façades that call for something unique, and select models are also available in a retractable version for extra flexibility.

Terrace heating integrated into the awning structure so the terrace can be used in any weather without a separate installation.
LED Valance
For businesses, the valance can be fitted with LED logo or LED text which keeps the business visible after dark.
Seaside coating
An extra protective coating applied to all metal components developed for coastal environments where salt air accelerates corrosion.
