About us

We create solutions that let people enjoy the sun all year round. Not just products, but spaces where time slows down, where light takes centre stage, and where people feel good.

With all our energy, we design and manufacture bioclimatic pergolas, retractable-roof pergolas, and awnings, together with a range of complementary solutions such as glass enclosures, lighting systems, audio systems, and heaters.

We bring Made in Italy to the world: the excellence and authenticity of a culture built around sunshine and the Italian way of enjoying light and outdoor living. Our secret lies in listening, sharing ideas, and constantly valuing the skills, experience, and expertise of our entire team.

We work by combining each person’s unique strengths and qualities, blending ideas, industrial innovation, and artisanal craftsmanship.

We take the best to give you the best.

Experiencing the beauty of inspiring spaces

This is how we envision outdoor living.
Open spaces that become part of everyday life, to be enjoyed with comfort, freedom, and ease.

At Gibus, we combine aesthetics, innovation, and functionality to create environments designed to last and adapt to contemporary lifestyles.

Every project is the result of the meeting between technology, design culture, and attention to people.

We create inspiring spaces, designed to be truly lived in, every day.

Our Values

Gibus is constantly redefining ourselves, taking care of others through the trust that inspires our relationships and the consistency that guides every action we take.

OUR VALUES

We constantly ask ourselves whether what we are doing can be done better.

It is the ability to continuously challenge ourselves, never considering our journey complete. It is the driving force that leads us to question our choices every day, seek new solutions, and embrace change with openness and curiosity.

We are open to listening to people and allowing ourselves to be inspired by their ideas.

It is the willingness to listen, value people, and create spaces of autonomy aligned with skills and responsibilities. We listen openly and allow ourselves to be inspired by the ideas of others, because we believe that mutual trust is the foundation of strong, authentic, and collaborative relationships.

We care about what we do.
We care about the people we do it with.
So that we can care for those we do it for.

Caring means developing genuine empathy, listening attentively, and acting with sensitivity towards those who work with us, our partners, and the people who choose our products. It is not just an attitude; it is a concrete responsibility that is reflected every day in our actions, our decisions, and the way we build relationships.

We promise only what we can deliver.
We put in every possible effort to deliver on what we promise.

It is the principle that makes our values credible and tangible. We promise only what we can deliver, and we put in every possible effort to do so every day, with seriousness, responsibility, and reliability.

Progettotenda

Gianfranco Bellin and Lorenzo Danieli founded PROGETTOTENDA on 12 October 1982, at the age of 26 and 23 respectively, and began producing mosquito nets, roller and vertical awnings. The first location was a rented warehouse of 400 square metres.

Gibus brand

In 1987 they met up with other business people and had the intuition to create a common brand together: Gibus was born. Gibus is an elegant French top hat that contains a mechanism that retracts the cylinder so that it can be worn comfortably under the arm. “Gibus” synthesises the concepts of elegance, technology and functionality that can be found in all our products.

Atelier Gibus

With foresight, the company realised the potential of developing a network of highly trained retailers well rooted in the territory and launched the Gibus Atelier project. The Ateliers are authorised dealers of Gibus branded products exclusively for the outdoor sector. Today the network is present in Italy and in the main European countries with hundreds of Gibus Ateliers.

Gibus spa

2012 marks the transition from four local artisan companies, distributed in various regions of the country, to a single industrial company. Gibus SPA is born.

Corporate industrial reorganisation and private equity entry

Exit from the group of some of the historical partners and simultaneous entry of a Private Equity fund. The cohabitation with the fund will be fundamental for the company’s growth and development, thanks also to the entry of a new generation of managers who now work alongside the Bellin-Danieli family in its management.

100% Family Bellin Danieli

Once the company restructuring process had been completed and a new managerial structure had been achieved, the Bellin-Danieli family repurchased all the shares in Gibus and the Private Equity fund consequently left.

Internationalisation

The year 2022 sees the birth of Gibus NL B.V., based in Zwolle, the Netherlands, and is part of the internationalisation process, which continued with the acquisition of the German company LEINER, a reality of excellence in the outdoor design segment, with a broad product portfolio that includes awnings, pergolas and glass roofs.

Gibus Atelier Network

The Atelier project was born in 2008 from the intuition to build a widespread network of highly trained and competent retailers. Gibus is currently present in Italy and in the main European countries with a network of hundreds of Gibus Ateliers, authorised resellers of Gibus branded products exclusively for the outdoor sector and to whom are reserved communication initiatives, training and updating activities, technical and marketing activities, privileged discounts and additional services to the sale including consumer credit and operational rental.

Code of Ethics

The essence of a company is its necessary substance, that characteristic without which it would cease to be what it is. For Gibus, this substance is the values of honesty, fairness, confidentiality and reliability towards all stakeholders. The Code of Ethics establishes the values, rules, commitments and ethical responsibilities of the company and provides the guidelines that guide its work.
Gibus offers the possibility of making a report via the Whistleblowing platform.

Sustainability

Gibus mobile sun protection products generate sustainable wellbeing that guarantees comfort for the people who use them, with almost insignificant consumption of resources and producing energy savings that are truly beneficial to our planet. We want to develop this sensitivity towards the environment, first and foremost internally, by making choices aimed at minimising the impact of our industrial activity. But we want to do so even more strongly externally: by spreading the culture of mobile sun protection to our distribution network, to the public and to designers.

Excellence

We certify ourselves and our products because we want to ensure the highest level of well-being for everyone. ISO 9001 certification attests that the company’s quality management system has been recognised as meeting a standard of excellence. ISO 45001 certification ensures that the management system complies with the relevant standard and informs employees and the public that the company protects the health and safety of its workers by providing organisational, instrumental and economic resources. ISO 14001 certification ensures compliance with environmental management standards to identify and control the effects of activities, products and services on the environment, seeking continuous improvement in an effective and sustainable manner. Our aluminium is painted in Qualicoat-certified facilities and is pre-treated by Seaside for improved strength and durability.
