Within the framework of the Heat Wave Management Plan (Plan de management des vagues de chaleur) of the Ministry of Spatial Planning and Ecological Transition (Ministères Aménagement du territoire Transition écologique) of France, we have installed a set of self-supporting Perhexa pergolas on Pl. de l'hotel de Ville in front of the Mairie de Seynod in the commune of Annecy.

Our Perhexa pergolas They are an ideal shade solution for projects where foundations are not feasible. Perhexa The self-supporting deck allows for the creation of versatile and flexible shaded spaces, as its portability allows it to be removed on occasion if required.

The Perhexa It offers freestanding pergolas, self-supporting pergolas with decking or benches, freestanding benches, and planters. All these elements can be combined to create a more humanized and green space, a climate refuge for the city's residents.

Currently, the creation of climate and/or thermal shelters is essential to guarantee the thermal comfort of citizens, especially in summer. With rising temperatures, creating shaded spaces for rest and relaxation is an act of care and respect for the residents of a municipality. Offering recreational areas and spaces for social interaction protected from the sun's rays generates unparalleled revitalization of public spaces, for the enjoyment of its population.
