Clearspan Conservatories

Since the 1930's the name Clearspan has been synonymous with innovative structures in aluminium and glass. Clearspan Modular by Apropos takes this concept to its logical conclusion. The combination of aluminium and glass is the ultimate architectural union enabling the creation of perfect design solutions for modern urban structures. Aluminium is light and strong providing a minimalist framework to allow glass to do what it does best. The Clearspan Modular collection is designed for 21st Century living. It offers urban glass extensions, living rooms and skylights for the modern world, designed and manufactured with the same degree of precision engineering you would associate with Apropos Tectonic but at surprisingly modest prices.

Apropos Conservatories

Originally introduced under the Hartley Botanic brand, apropos has benefited from over half a century of experience with the very first aluminium and glass structure built by Hartley still in perfect working order. Apropos has now naturally evolved into a separate specialist company offering unique structures for the modern age. A combination of the latest technology and bespoke modern styling makes our products durable and beautiful. The light that flows through these amazing glass and aluminium structures will totally transform the look of any home or building.
