“M.A.N.T.T.” identifies an internationally patented technological system that integrates the telescopic coverings for exteriors. The M.A.N.T.T. system (acronym for the Italian equivalent of ” Anti-Snow Mechanism for Telescopic Roofs”) is a mobile covering suitable for use in any place and any weather condition. As a consequence of all the innovations brought about in the external coverings planning field, it has been soon adopted by worldwide famous engineers who needed to plan structures capable of resisting extremely high temperatures, strong gusts of wind (insulation up to 140 km/h), snow, rain, hurricanes and earthquakes.
Practical application
The M.A.N.T.T. system has found practical applications in many seismic areas (California), vulcanic regions (Naples and Sicily), areas characterised by consistent climatic excursions and high humidity (Hudson River banks, New York, Canada) and places swept by strong gusts of wind (Corsica and Sardinia). Another key aspect of this system is the protection it offers from the acoustic pollution. The M.A.N.T.T. system has favoured the implementation of similar structures in noisy towns, large cities and external spaces at ground level. The M.A.N.T.T. system is a building solution for hotels, airports, restaurants, stores, shopping malls, swimming pools, sports facilities and residential buildings. Technical characteristics The M.A.N.T.T. system coverings allow you to open or close the sections they are made of, according to the weather changes. For instance, when the sun rays are not beating down and the temperature gets pleasant, you can open parts of the covering, thus permitting the cool air to enter. On the contrary, when the sun is beating down you can completely close the structure and prevent the entrance of sunlight. In fact, it is a modular covering whose sections can be opened or closed at will up to two thirds of its surface. An electric motor facilitates the closing procedure. The bearing structure is composed of aluminum extrusions with oversized sections, fused accessories in aluminum alloy or stainless steel which bring solidity to the covering. The M.A.N.T.T. telescopic covering system integrates a snow melting device, characterised by an accurate drainage system that conveys the rainwater towards the interior of the extrusions by means of gutters. The protective internal shell of the telescopic tunnel system has a multiple layered insulation. Externally there is an anti-fire and water proof pvc fabric over which the rainwater flows. This external layer is insulated.
