Bioclimatic Pergolas & Louvre Roofs
Formerly known as Luxa 500 Bioclimatic Pergola
BIO 500The motorised entry into the Sereno family. Same frame as the 700 and 500M, same 115° louvre rotation, same QUALICOAT Class 2 powder coat finish — controlled by a remote handset and wall switch instead of a smart-home gateway. The honest middle ground: motor convenience without the smart-home premium. Modules from 3×3 m to 4×6 m, any RAL colour.
