Precision outdoor architecture for more ambitious spaces.

ORELAN is Apollo's architectural louvre platform for custom residential, hospitality, resort and commercial projects. It covers premium rotating roofs, retracting open-sky technology, reduced-column large spans, multi-bay structures, glass enclosure and selected retrofit roofs.

Where ORELAN sits

Not another kitset pergola.

AEGIS PRIME remains Apollo's modular / kitset louvre pathway. ORELAN starts where the project becomes more architectural: bespoke dimensions, heavier structures, wider spans, fewer columns, linked bays, retracting louvres, integrated glass and commercial or resort-scale planning.

ORELAN system architecture

Choose by what the space needs the roof to do.

The public range is deliberately curated. Manufacturing model names stay behind the specification so the client sees clear architectural choices rather than an upstream production catalogue.

Flagship technology

Open-sky means more than tilting the blades.

The flagship ORELAN retractable pathway combines louvre rotation with physical roof retraction. The current manufacturing reference uses 6063-T5 aluminium, a motorised roof with up to 90° blade rotation, a published four-post reference of up to 4 × 6 m, integrated drainage and lighting pathways.

Large projects

Build hospitality and resort spaces as linked architecture.

Current heavy-duty platform data includes reduced-column 4 × 10 m dual-bay reference layouts and a rain-focused platform with published 4.5 × 7 m four-post and 9 × 6.5 m six-post configurations. Final structure is always project-specific.

Large-span & multi-bay

Enclosure

Glass, screens and side control planned with the structure.

The current frameless-glass pathway includes tempered and laminated options with manufacturer reference panels up to 1000 × 2600 mm. VELARIS remains Apollo's dedicated blind brand; compatible screen integration can be coordinated into ORELAN projects without turning ORELAN into a blind catalogue.

Technical claim control

We publish what is useful now — and hold back what still needs evidence.

Publish now

System type, current reference dimensions, profile dimensions where consistent, operation, installation formats, glass pathways and documented configuration options.

Confirm before relying on it

Model-specific wind and snow test reports, drainage rates, exact coastal coating warranties, final alloy/temper where source references conflict, motor protocols and complete certification scope.

Never assume

Local structural compliance, foundation design, existing-frame capacity, electrical work, drainage discharge, installation or approval requirements.
