Entertainment, Leisure Facilites Going Gaga Over En-Fold Retractable Canopy Structures

MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. 13, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The retractable roof at NRG Stadium in Houston majestically opened up to the sky at the touch of a button, allowing Lady Gaga's dramatic drop at the halftime show at the Big Game. More than 111 million people witnessed the impressive spectacle. This exemplifies how the patented retractable canopy technology can be used to deliver a wow factor to outdoor space while boosting the bottom line for restaurants, hotels, resorts and other entertainment facilities.

The high-tech mechanization of the system that effortlessly opened and closed the roof during the halftime show was designed, engineered and fabricated by Minneapolis based Uni-Systems, LLC the leading designer and advocate of the retractable canopy experience. The very same designers and engineers that brought this technology to market are responsible for the design and engineering of the En-Fold® retractable fabric canopy system, which is available to commercial venues including restaurants, hotels and other types of entertainment and recreational facilities.
