Residential Fabric/Canvas

Awnings are one essential aspect of building. They are secondary coverings fixed to the wall of a building outside. To make an awning, the canvas is woven from one out of a wide range of materials and is stretched gently over a structure of wood, aluminum or other solid materials. Awnings can be placed above a window, door or along the sidewalk and can extend further to act as a canopy. Awnings are used as shade, protection from rain and snow while adding beauty to the building. They maintain room brightness and shut out heat while keeping indoor fittings from fading.

What kind of materials are awnings made from?
Awnings come in different materials, sizes, and shapes. Acrylic materials are usually non-transparent and bulky but are ideal for an area with high humidity. They are available in a wide range of styles and colors. Vinyl fabrics are more cumbersome than acrylic fabrics but are more translucent. They are resistant to UV light and mildew. Fiber glass awnings can be non-transparent or a little translucent. They would need replacement when they become brittle. Shelters made from natural materials like wood and natural fiber canvas require a great deal of maintenance despite being quite cheap. Metal awnings, very prone to rust and dent were standard in the 20th century. This kind of awnings materials has become outdated.
