Awning fabrics
Summery variety of colors
We use the tried and tested HydroSol 270 fabric for the production of our SunFurl awnings. With a weight of 270g / m², it is extremely light for an awning fabric. It also offers very high UV resistance, enormous tear resistance and high UV protection. It also has an increased water column thanks to the hydro finish. HydroSol270 therefore offers all the properties you could wish for in an awning fabric! For nursery sails, we recommend the use of SolMesh340 mesh fabric. This offers maximum UV protection and is also permeable to air to prevent heat build-up.
