Global Tente is an Istanbul-based production and installation brand, headquartered in Kartal, specialising in awnings, tarpaulins and shading systems with over 20 years of experience. Since our founding we have worked with a single purpose: to turn open areas into durable and aesthetic spaces that can be lived in with four-season comfort. With quality materials, sound engineering and a customer-focused service approach, we turn your terrace or your business’s outdoor space into a genuine living area.
At the heart of our product range are modern outdoor roof systems. Alongside bioclimatic pergola systems that manage sun, shade, rain and ventilation from one hand with their adjustable aluminium louvres, we offer motorised fabric roofs (rolling roof) and custom-designed pergola solutions. With the guillotine glass, sliding glass, folding glass and zip screen applications that complement these systems, we close the sides of the outdoor space too, keeping the area sheltered in any weather; and with our awning and canopy solutions, we also meet economical and flexible shading needs.
What makes Global Tente different is that it runs the whole job from one hand. Every project starts with a free survey at your area; we evaluate the dimensions, façade, wind load and your usage scenario together and recommend the system most suitable for your need. Thanks to our own production infrastructure, we produce the systems to your area’s exact dimensions, install them precisely with our experienced team and deliver them turnkey. The materials we use are chosen of proven quality, to withstand outdoor weather and long years.
Our strong position in the sector and our innovative approach have made us a brand preferred not just across Turkey but in overseas projects too. Our selected products are also available to customers at Bauhaus stores. From homes to commercial businesses, from public projects to export, we produce solutions that combine aesthetics and functionality at every scale.
For us, the success of a project shows not on delivery day, but when it still works years later with first-day performance and our customer is still satisfied. Because customer satisfaction is always our priority. If you want to turn your outdoor space into a four-season-livable, comfortable and valuable area, simply contact us for a free survey.
At GlobalTente, our mission is to turn people's open areas into four-season-livable, comfortable, safe and aesthetic living spaces. We believe that turning a terrace, garden or business outdoor space from an idle area that retracts in rain or overheats in summer into a living space used with pleasure in any weather directly increases people's quality of life.
At GlobalTente, our vision is, while continuing to be one of Turkey's most reliable and innovative brands in the field of outdoor systems, to grow our place in the European market with our quality production. We aim to be the pioneer of technology-integrated, sustainable and aesthetic solutions that redefine the relationship people have with the open air.
An outdoor system is an important investment you will use for years; the success of this investment starts with choosing the right partner. Although there are many companies on the market, GlobalTente clearly makes the difference with its own production infrastructure, engineering-based approach, transparent service understanding and strong after-sales support.
Sample answers on surveys, production, installation and our range; each project is clarified with a survey and quote.
A rolling roof (retractable fabric roof) is a system made of a technical fabric roof that opens and retracts by motor. With its ability to span wide openings column-free, its lightweight structure and being almost invisible when fully open, it is ideal for terraces, restaurant gardens, cafés and wide event areas.
A rolling roof cuts sun and rain when the fabric opens; when retracted it leaves the sky fully open. With waterproof PVC fabric and the right slope, rain control is also provided. For spaces wanting a wide, column-free shade area and preferring a soft and light aesthetic, a rolling roof stands out. For a priority on flexible shade control and natural ventilation, a bioclimatic (louvered) pergola is considered, because the louvres adjust the amount of shade more precisely in intermediate positions. Which system is suitable is determined during the survey according to the space's size, climate and usage expectation. Both systems can be used together for different areas in large projects.
Production and installation time varies by product type, dimensions, custom colour and accessory requests, and season. A standard awning or canopy can usually be completed within a few days, while projects with a bioclimatic pergola, glass systems or a combination can take a few weeks including production and installation. Custom-size, special-form (radius, etc.) or special-RAL-colour requests can extend the production time somewhat.
In busy seasons (spring-summer), as demand increases the timing can change; so we recommend planning early. After the survey and measurement, we share a clear production and installation window specific to your project in writing in the proposal and agreement; so you know from the start when the process will be completed. Installation is done by our experienced team with precise measurement and correct anchoring; when finished, water tightness and system operation are tested and it is handed over turnkey.
A bioclimatic pergola is an outdoor system with a roof of motorised rotating or adjustable aluminium louvres. The term "bioclimatic" comes from the system actively adapting to climate conditions: the louvres are set steplessly to the desired angle to manage sun, shade and ventilation together.
When the louvres open, sun and air are let in and hot air rises for natural ventilation; when closed, the EPDM gaskets at the louvre edges interlock to form a watertight roof and rain is drained through the concealed gutter system. So a bioclimatic pergola combines sun control, rain protection and ventilation in one system; it makes the outdoor space much more than a fixed sunshade, a four-season-usable living area. When the sides are closed with zip screens or glass systems and a heater is added, it is used comfortably in winter too. It is the most preferred modern outdoor solution in homes, restaurants, hotels and public spaces.
The price quote is created by evaluating all the details of your project. The main factors determining the quote are: the total dimensions and area; the system type (bioclimatic pergola, glass system, zip screen, awning, etc.); the motor and automation (sensor, smart-home integration); the fabric or glass type (single/double glazing, mesh/blackout, special colour); and the installation difficulty (height, anchoring, logistics).
Instead of a standard flat price, we offer an itemised, transparent quote based on the dimensions and system choice specific to your area. This approach lets you clearly see what you are paying for and contains no hidden costs. The quote is prepared in writing after the free survey and measurement; if accepted, it is turned into an agreement. The right price is an investment decision that considers not just the initial cost but also the durability and long life of the system; so during the survey we determine together the solution most suitable for your need and budget.
Yes, zip screens and guillotine glass are planned together in most projects and complement each other. Under a pergola or fixed structure, these two systems take on different functions to make the outdoor space fully equipped.
Guillotine glass is a façade-enclosure system where the panels open by sliding vertically upward, requiring no side stacking area; it cuts wind, rain and cold while preserving the view. A zip screen is a system where the fabric locks into the rail at the edge and does not flap in wind; it provides sun, insect and privacy control. In many projects, one façade is solved with guillotine glass (for view and full enclosure) and another façade or the upper section with a zip screen (for sun and insect control). When combined with a bioclimatic pergola above, the outdoor space turns into a four-season-usable, view and sheltered outdoor room. Which system is used on which façade is planned together during the survey according to the area's orientation, view and intended use.
