Johnson & Couzins: Shaping Outdoor Living Since 1866

Our legacy began in 1866, catering to New Zealand’s early prospectors with durable tents, tarpaulins, and gear to withstand the elements. Over the years, we've evolved with the changing needs of outdoor enthusiasts, crafting high-quality outdoor solutions that protect and enhance life outside. From outfitting Antarctic explorers with weatherproof anoraks to introducing New Zealand’s first fully retractable louvre system, Johnson & Couzins has been at the forefront of innovation and quality.

Proudly 100% New Zealand owned and operated, we blend traditional craftsmanship with modern technology to create a range of outdoor roofing and shade solutions, including SkyLouvres, canopy awnings, shade sails, umbrellas, and screens. Our Concertina SkyLouvre—New Zealand’s first retractable louvre—puts you in control of your environment, allowing you to adjust exposure to sun and rain at the touch of a button.

Our products are seen across New Zealand in homes, commercial spaces, and hospitality venues, and since 2014, they’ve expanded to Australia. Designed and manufactured locally, we stand by our commitment to quality with a three-year warranty, ensuring worry-free enjoyment of your outdoor spaces.

Whether you’re seeking year-round comfort, a shaded retreat, or seamless outdoor living, Johnson & Couzins offers solutions tailored to your lifestyle. Embrace the freedom of outdoor control—come rain or shine—with Johnson & Couzins, the name in shade since 1866!
