Broadview has increased its alfresco product range with the introduction of the Monza awnings

With the trend in alfresco dining on the increase, Broadview has responded by adding what it calls an innovative new awning range to its extensive alfresco product portfolio, the Monza and Monza Plus awnings.

Using innovative Italian technology and design, the Broadview Monza awnings are a cost-effective choice, in light of the credit crunch, for a distinctive outdoor setting and enable people to indulge in alfresco dining at home. These new awnings exemplify clear lines and combine proven, high-quality fabric compositions and modern easy care technology. The folding-arm awnings are fully weather protected and together with a powder-coated white finish, reflect the latest advances in awning technology and industry standards. The products are end fixation with an easy fit slide adapter plate which allows the installer to move the fixing from side to side. This is useful when fitting to rendered property where the installer cannot see the mortar lines.

The durable, hard-wearing fabric is available in more than 200 designs and the Monza is available in widths of up to 5 metres with a maximum projection of 2.5 metres and the Monza Plus is available in widths of up to 6 metres and a maximum projection of 3 metres. To add extra luxury to the awnings, heating and lighting as well as a Somfy Orea RTS remote control system can be incorporated in to the design. These innovations combine luxury shading, high quality awning design and the ultimate in convenience and ease of use to bring a whole new dimension to outdoor living.

Ian Pratt, MD at Broadview, said: “For the increasingly savvy and style conscious homeowners looking to create an eye-catching outdoor living space, the new Monza awnings offer a stylish and elegant ambience. These new awnings provide a cost effective solution for homeowners looking to add colour, charm and a touch of luxury to the exterior of their homes.”

The Monza awnings add to Broadview’s current range of alfresco products which include a variety of parasol and canopy designs. Until the end of April, Broadview is offering a free Somfy Orea motor with a Monza awning.
