What characteristics should have a good canvas for awnings?

Esta entrada también está disponible en: Spanish

When we choose an awning it is very important to take into account the different types of canvas available, because each one has specific characteristics. The canvas for awnings must be of quality, but depending on the area in which the awning is going to be installed, it must have a series of specific aspects.

Canvas for all needs

For example, if the awning is for a house or a terrace where there is a lot of wind, the main characteristic that the canvas must have is that it is micro-perforated so that it can better withstand the gusts of wind.

Also, it should be noted that micro-perforated fabric is one of the most modern options, composed of a structure of glass fiber or polyester coated, with a material that gives them more resistance such as PVC. Besides being ideal for areas where there is a lot of wind, they have a great capacity for thermal insulation and also reduce the feeling of heat thanks to its high perspiration level.

The most common canvases that we can find in the market are acrylics. This kind of canvases are very resistant, they are usually anti-stain and waterproof as well as quite durable. They are very aesthetic and are often used in invisible arm awnings. Do you have any more questions? Contact us!
