1.5 Centuries of Shade in New Zealand

Johnson & Couzins are proud to be one of New Zealand’s oldest companies – we have been ‘the name in shade since 1866’. Based in Christchurch, we have expanded to Auckland in 2010 and offer more licensee opportunities throughout New Zealand due to rapid growth.

Johnson & Couzins have the answer to all your shade demands, ranging from large outdoor umbrellas and shade sails to fully automatic opening roof louvres and canopy awnings. Our shade products can be found all over New Zealand in both commercial and residential settings.

We are renowned for our comprehensive and outstanding customer service which includes free measure and quotes, design and manufacture through to installation.

We design and manufacture most of our products in house and custom-design shade solutions to your specific needs. Constantly developing new products, we offer the very latest in design and quality and always stay at the forefront of our market, setting shade trends. Our latest innovation is the elegant, ultra-modern Silencio Louvre.

Apart from louvres, canopy awnings and outdoor umbrellas Johnson & Couzins also make a vast range of custom PVC and canvas designs for various markets such as trucking, restaurants and the manufacturing industry.

So whether you need a louvre for your outdoor living area, awnings and umbrellas including outdoor heaters for your business, or simply a tarpaulin or pool cover, leave it with Johnson & Couzins. Contact us now and we’ll get you under cover!
