{"product_id":"flex-pratic-retractable-awning","title":"Flex – Retractable Awning","description":"\u003cp\u003eFlex by Pratic is a family of retractable folding-arm awnings for balconies, terraces and outdoor dining areas. Its extending fabric canopy provides shade without front support posts, leaving the area underneath open for seating and circulation. Manual or motorised operation allows the shaded space to change during the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRetractable shade for outdoor comfort\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith Flex, the fabric extends over the area you want to use and retracts when an open view of the sky is preferred. The front valance completes the fabric edge and adds screening along the leading side of the canopy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe useful shaded area depends on the width, projection and direction of sunlight. For a dining terrace, the starting point may be the position of the table; for a balcony, it may be a seating area close to the glazed doors. Flex offers different configurations for these requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Flex range\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe family includes Flex 300, Flex 375 and Flex Box.
