At Umbris, everything revolves around creating a unique outdoor experience that enriches your life. Based on our many years of experience in metal construction, we combine refined design and smart solutions into a harmonious whole that chimes perfectly with your lifestyle.
Every aspect, from the roof system to the finishing details, is entirely tailor-made and assembled in our production workshop. With the addition of decorative wall finishes, screens and heating elements, we extend the outdoor season and add an extra dimension to your patio. Now there’s nothing to prevent you from enjoying your garden. Whether it rains on the day of your garden party, the country is hit by a heatwave, or you’re in the mood to enjoy the great outdoors on a cold winter’s day.
Luxurious. Stylish. Refined. And with an eye for detail. Every Umbris project is tailor-made, harnessing the craftsmanship of our in-house technical team and the finesse of our designers. With no modules or standard packages, there is room to think outside the box and design a louvred roof that meets your every need. One that chimes with the architecture of your home and stands out for its ingenious details, professional finish and high-end look.
We make every louvred roof in our own construction workshop in Lokeren, thus keeping the whole process in-house from start to finish. This allows us to respond flexibly to your wishes, with premium customisation as standard. Our installation team will skilfully install the louvred roof at your home, and meticulously check the quality, right down to the smallest details.
Precision and perfection. In everything that we do. We cut the profiles before applying the high-quality powder coating, weld the joins for additional strength, and select the perfect thickness of aluminium to muffle the sound of the rain, and more. We work with sustainable European materials, FSC-certified wood and local partners as far as possible.
Our technical team, designers and craftspeople create the perfect balance between personal service, unparalleled quality, functionality and design, so that you can enjoy yourself all year long.
Umbris truly stands out thanks to the expertise of MEBO, our parent company, which has specialised in metal constructions in steel, stainless steel and aluminium for almost thirty years. MEBO, founded by Inge Bogaert and Filip Melis, designs, produces and installs refined steel construction for large building works. Successful projects such as the Port House and Central Station in Antwerp, the Rogierplein in Brussels and Howest in Kortrijk, are testament to our expertise and craftsmanship. This extensive experience sets Umbris apart and elevates your project to a higher level.
In 2008, MEBO was commissioned by an architect, for whom they had already created fixed louvre structures, to develop an aesthetic system of tilting and automated louvres. In addition to being practical, they also had to chime with the design look of the home. The combination of ease, aesthetics, quality and personalisation was a success and inspired Inge Bogaert and Filip Melis to establish Umbris as a brand. They thus made their mark as the first Belgian constructor of louvred roofs. In the meantime, our premium louvred roofs have become an established international phenomenon.
