Custom metal canopies to provide coverage without building a warehouse<\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/i><\/div><\/div>\n
<\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n

Industrial canopies, covered loading\/unloading areas, carports: clear-span metal structures that protect the space you need, calculated for the snow and wind loads of your site. Metal roofing, insulated or transparent panels, depending on the use.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Calculated and produced by our internal technical office in Mornico al Serio (Bergamo<\/a>) and installed by our teams.<\/p>\n<\/div>

When a metal canopy is the right choice<\/h3><\/div>

A canopy is not just “a warehouse without walls.” It is a targeted covering: it protects a work area, a passage, or a storage space without the commitment (and costs) of a closed building.<\/p>\n<\/div>

It is needed when you must protect goods, vehicles, or people from the elements while keeping the space open.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Demountable clear-span canopies with the right roofing for the application<\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>
<\/i><\/div><\/div>\n
<\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n
\"\"<\/div><\/div>

MCT canopies are designed to be demountable and clear-span: we calculate them based on the space you need to cover and the site loads, not on a standard span.<\/p>\n

And we choose the roofing based on the use: simple shelter, thermal insulation, or natural light.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div><\/div>
<\/i><\/i><\/span>Custom Clear Spans<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div>
\n

Structure calculated based on the span to be covered, leaving the space below free of pillars where needed. Demountable and expandable over time.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>Roofing customized for the application<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div>
\n

Metal roofing for shelter, insulated panels where temperature matters, and transparent materials where natural light is needed. Also customizable in color.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>Calculated for Snow and Wind<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div>
\n

Sizing follows the Technical Standards for Construction regarding the snow and wind loads of the area: a canopy stays outside year-round and must be calculated as such.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Types of metal canopies.<\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>
<\/i><\/div><\/div>\n
<\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n

The type depends on what you need to cover and where: from there, we define the geometry, spans, roofing, and anchoring.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Industrial Canopy<\/h4><\/div>

Coverage for loading\/unloading areas and entrances, cantilevered or on pillars.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Storage Canopy<\/h4><\/div>

Coverage for goods, materials, or vehicles, with clear spans.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Carport<\/h4><\/div>

Covered parking and garages for corporate or collective use.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Transparent or Insulated Roofing<\/h4><\/div>

With transparent panels for natural light or insulated panels for thermal control.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n

From site survey to final testing, without intermediaries<\/h3><\/div>\n

The canopy is calculated by our technical office and installed by our teams. A building permit is almost always required: we prepare the technical documentation so it is part of the project and not an unexpected cost later.<\/p>\n<\/div>

What we achieve is a short supply chain: a single point of contact, changes managed in real time, and clear responsibility at every stage.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Compliance and Building Permits for Metal Canopies<\/h3><\/div>

A canopy is a permanent outdoor structure: it must be calculated for snow and wind according to Technical Standards (NTC) and, in almost all cases, requires a building permit or notification.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"\"<\/div><\/div>

We prepare the technical documentation as part of the project and monitor the structure over time with inspections and maintenance.<\/p>\n<\/div>
