Arko

ARKO is a retractable cover system custom made to protect against sun and rain and is affixed to a supporting wall. It consists of a laminate wood structure and a folding canvas that can come in a variety of colors.

​

ARKO has guaranteed wind resistance of grade 6 on the Beaufort scale (above class 3 – UNI EN 13561). The canvas, made from exclusive Corradi Eclissi* fabric,is an opaque laminated PVC and has a side embossed with weft effect.

​

The fabric is supported by intermediate supporting tubes and terminal bars set parallel to one another. The canvas moves by sliding on the side tracks on carriers with 6 asymmetrical wheels with a capacity of about 1000 lbs each. The toothed transmission belt has stainless steel cables and resists a saline environment. The transmission belt is inserted in each side track, controlled by the drive pulley and a single drive shaft that guarantees the smooth movement of the canvas. The ARKO system is set in motion by a radio-controlled motor.
