Bioclimatic Pergola
Turn the louvres by motor, close them in the rain, retract them on a clear day. A bioclimatic pergola makes a terrace usable whatever the season.
Overview
A bioclimatic pergola is an outdoor structure whose roof is made of motorised aluminium louvres. Open, the louvres let warm air escape and ventilate the space naturally; closed, special gaskets make the roof watertight. Rainwater runs through concealed channels in the louvres into the gutter and down inside the posts.
INORMA builds two bioclimatic systems. SOLARA BIO L-200 has louvres that rotate up to 85° and fully retract with a second motor, for anyone who wants to open the sky; with three rails a single module reaches 6000 × 6975 mm. VENTO BIO X-300 shares the same design language with panels that rotate to 105° or retract, and comes with LED as standard.
Both can be closed on the front, sides and back with VISTA guillotine glass, THERMA sliding glass or zip screens, giving you shade in summer and a heated, enclosed room in winter.

FAQ
Does a bioclimatic pergola keep the rain out?
Yes. When the louvres close, special gaskets make the roof watertight. Water runs through concealed channels into the gutter and down inside the posts. With a rain sensor the louvres close automatically when rain starts.
What is the difference between SOLARA and VENTO?
SOLARA’s louvres rotate up to 85° and also retract completely to open the roof. VENTO uses panels that rotate to 105° or retract, has LED lighting as standard and offers heaters and audio as options.
What is the largest size?
A single SOLARA module reaches 4000 × 6975 mm with two rails and 6000 × 6975 mm with three. Larger areas are covered by joining modules.
What warranty do you give?
SOLARA and VENTO bioclimatic pergolas come with a 5-year manufacturer warranty.
Can I use it in winter?
Yes. Close the sides with guillotine glass, sliding glass or zip screens and add a heater, and the pergola becomes a four-season room.
