Premium Acrylic Awning Fabric:

The high-quality acrylic awning fabric is made of 100% solution-dyed branded acrylic. Unlike conventional yarn dyeing, the color pigments are incorporated directly during the fiber production process. This ensures highly reliable protection against harmful UV radiation while maintaining long-lasting, vibrant, and lightfast colors.

The robust acrylic fabric also impresses with its high tear resistance. A special protective finish makes the material water- and dirt-repellent. This provides a durable and proven solution for long-term outdoor use.
