Wind break glass systems create comfortable, sheltered outdoor spaces without sacrificing the open-air atmosphere that makes outdoor dining and leisure so appealing. By blocking wind while maintaining full transparency, they allow businesses and homeowners to enjoy outdoor spaces comfortably even in cooler or windier conditions.
Our comprehensive wind break range includes fixed glass panels, operable panels that can be raised or lowered for ventilation control, and folding accordion systems that stack compactly when not needed. All systems are manufactured in Istanbul using premium tempered or laminated safety glass and aluminum frames — with flat-pack export available worldwide.
This system is suitable for a wide range of commercial and residential applications worldwide. All systems are available for flat-pack export from Istanbul.
Extend outdoor seating season. Protect customers from rain, sun and wind while maintaining an elegant, open-air atmosphere that attracts more business.

Transform gardens, terraces and balconies into all-weather living spaces. Adds real estate value while dramatically improving quality of life outdoors.
We offer four main types: Fixed glass panels (permanent, maximum protection), operable panels with piston mechanism (raise/lower for ventilation), folding accordion glass (stacks when not needed), and pergola-integrated side walls. We also offer fabric-based wind breaks as a cost-effective alternative.
Our standard specification uses 8mm or 10mm toughened (tempered) safety glass meeting EN 12150 standard, or 6+6mm laminated glass meeting EN ISO 12543. All glass meets EU safety standards. Custom specifications including colored, frosted or low-iron glass are available.
Yes. Our operable glass panels can be motorized for remote-controlled raising and lowering. This is particularly popular for commercial settings where staff need to adjust wind protection without manual handling. Wind sensors for automatic closure are also available.
Our pergola side wall wind break systems are specifically designed to connect to the structural posts of our bioclimatic pergola, rolling roof and retractable awning systems — creating a complete, fully-integrated outdoor room. This allows a complete enclosure solution from a single supplier.
There is no minimum order quantity. We supply single-project export orders as well as wholesale and distributor orders. For single project orders, we recommend providing detailed site measurements so we can optimize the packing configuration for freight efficiency.

A wind break glass system is a vertically oriented glass panel structure installed along the open sides of an outdoor terrace, pool deck or hospitality area. Unlike opaque screens, glass wind breaks maintain the view and the sense of openness while neutralizing the effect of wind — which is often the primary barrier to outdoor seating use in European and Northern climates.
Our range covers four main system types: fixed framed glass, operable (up-and-over piston) panels, folding accordion glass, and pergola-integrated side walls. The appropriate specification depends on the frequency of access, the visual character required, planning constraints, and whether full enclosure or partial screening is needed.
All glass panels use tempered or tempered-laminated safety glass to relevant EN standards (EN 12150, EN ISO 12543). Standard thickness options are 8mm tempered (fixed panels) and 10mm or 12mm laminated (operable and large-format panels). Custom tints, privacy frosting and anti-reflective coatings are available for projects with specific aesthetic requirements.
Permanently installed framed panels. Lowest cost, highest rigidity. Suitable where access is not needed and the wind break location is fixed. Common in roadside café terraces.
Panels that lift vertically via pneumatic or hydraulic pistons. Raised: full open access and airflow. Lowered: full wind protection. From 28,000 TRY per panel set.
Multi-panel hinged systems that fold to one side or both. Maximum aperture when open. Popular for hotel event terraces where flexible space division is needed.
Side wall systems designed to integrate visually and structurally with our Bioclimatic Pergola and Rolling Roof frames.
Glass wind break systems are exported in aluminum frame sections and tempered glass panels packed in protective crates. Standard 20ft containers hold 3–5 complete terrace systems depending on panel size. Assembly requires basic tools and typically takes one person per panel set around 2–3 hours per running metre of installation. We provide detailed installation drawings, anchor specifications and a video walkthrough of the assembly process for all exported systems. For combined projects pairing wind break glass with Zip Screen curtains or Terrace Enclosure glass, consolidated shipping is available.
Wind break glass works best combined with our Bioclimatic Pergola or Rolling Roof. For flexible fabric sides see our Zip Screen Curtains.
