Abstract

A system comprises a retractable panel structure, for example a screen/wall/divider/partition that can be rolled up and that can be unrolled. The panel structure comprises a back face (47) and a front face (48) that are spaced-apart from each other. The front face (48) is at least partly formed of an array of strips (23, 40) that are separate from each other and that move apart to allow the panel structure to be rolled up and wherein the back face (47) forms hinges that connect the strips (23, 40) together and that are capable of flexing to allow the said strips (23, 40) to move apart when the sheet is rolled up.
