Answers to common questions about bioclimatic pergolas in Mallorca

What is a bioclimatic pergola?
A bioclimatic pergola is an aluminium structure with adjustable louvres in the roof. The louvres open and close to regulate sunlight, ventilation and rain protection. When closed, the roof is watertight. When open, they allow air circulation and natural light.

Gold Partner status is awarded to certified installers who have completed manufacturer-accredited technical training, have access to the full product range and a direct channel for warranty claims and original spare parts.
Are the pergolas suitable for Mallorca's climate?
Yes. Brustor pergolas are made from powder-coated aluminium that is resistant to salt-air corrosion. The systems are rated for certified wind loads and include an integrated water drainage system. All materials are designed to withstand intense sun exposure and Mediterranean coastal conditions.
Can the pergola be used all year round in Mallorca?
Yes. The adjustable louvres regulate shade and ventilation in summer, while the closed roof protects from rain and reduces heat loss in winter. With optional infrared heaters and side screens, the terrace can be used even during the cooler months.
How does rainwater drainage work?
When the louvres are closed, rainwater is collected in a channel integrated into the structure and drained through the vertical posts. The system is invisible from the outside and requires no additional guttering.
