SPICA is a luxury, manually retractable glass windscreen for terraces and outdoor spaces. The system combines transparency, comfort and flexibility, with an extendable glass panel that effortlessly increases the screen height from 115 cm to 185 cm.

The upper panel glides smoothly upwards via an integrated gas spring, allowing you to adjust the screen height manually and effortlessly. This makes SPICA CORNELS® Glass ideal for changeable wind conditions—such as terraces on a square, by the water, or in open countryside.

The standard widths of the manually retractable glass windscreen SPICA CORNELS® Glass are 120 cm and 150 cm. The height is 115 cm when retracted and 185 cm when extended. Bespoke sizes are, of course, available on request.

When anchored into the ground or combined with a planter or bench (filled correctly in accordance with the instructions), SPICA CORNELS® Glass is suitable for use in wind force 8.

Yes. The glass windscreen system offers a 900 mm-wide door module with a stainless steel handle. The door opens inwards and includes a fixed section with an extendable panel. This door is typically specified when a hospitality terrace is fully enclosed with glass windscreens, or to break up a long run of screens with an access point — ensuring entry to the terrace remains inviting and effortless.

Certainly — this allows you to create an even more attractive terrace. SPICA CORNELS® Glass is an extendable glass windscreen that can be enhanced with a planter for added ambience, or with a bench – available with a wooden or granite seat — to provide additional seating.

Yes, absolutely. In fact, SPICA CORNELS® Glass is most commonly used on hospitality terraces. It provides guests with a comfortable place on the terrace, sheltered from the wind. On warm summer days, when a gentle breeze is desired, the upper panel can simply be lowered again. This glass windscreen is highly suitable for intensive use.

Of course, the manually retractable glass windscreen SPICA CORNELS® Glass can be installed beneath a canopy. However, this model is designed as a freestanding solution: either combined with a planter or bench module, or anchored into the ground as a stand-alone unit.

If you are looking to fully enclose a canopy with a glass windscreen, we recommend, for example, the motorised glass parapet system SIRIUS CORNELS® Glass. This system is fully integrated into the CORNELS Elite range, allowing the canopy to be completely enclosed and optimised for year-round use.

SPICA CORNELS® Glass is therefore primarily installed as a stand-alone windscreen, separate from the canopy structure.
