Types of waterproof awnings and their use:
There are different types of awnings with waterproof fabrics, so the most important are:
- The horizontal awnings do not protect from air or cold
- The pergolas allow us to create a more sheltered space. Very used in bars and restaurants
Types of fabrics: Function and effectiveness in waterproof awnings
- PVC: Material most used for waterproofing. The inconvenience is that they subtract heat and have a lot of brightness, so it is not aesthetic. They are mainly used in industry.
- Acrylics: They do not absorb heat and are made of a material with a lot of brightness
- Ratinated Acrylic Canvases: New range of fabrics for all types of awnings. They maintain the characteristics of the previous ones, but they are covered with special resins with which maximum waterproofness is stitched. And they also have a treatment to prevent mold and bacteria that cause tissue to deteriorate.
These are made with a lot of designs and diverse colors of matt aspect, reason why they do not have appearance of plastic. We can say today, that the resin-coated canvases are the star product
