Waterproof Shade Structures or Tensile Membranes are used for all types of applications, from backyard carports
to commercial areas like service station coverings.
Only the highest quality architectural grade PVC/PVDF fabrics are used, being mildew and UV treated and also varying
in weight per square metre depending on the size of the structure.
With fabric warranties beginning with a seven year guarantee, life spans in excess of 10-15 years are commonplace when
properly maintained.
We also provide a 5 year structural warranty, so you can be assured of peace of mind for years to come.
With a wide range of colours available and all offering 100% UV protection from the direct sun, your individual situation
can be met.
The fabrics are translucent thus providing good light transmission and when used in conjunction with internal lighting,
they provide a magnificent lantern effect at night.
These membranes are generated with specialised computer software. This software also produces cutting patterns and these
panels are then joined by a high frequency welder, thus eliminating quick breakdown of threads from a sewing machine and
durability is maintained for years to come.
Smaller sized sails have a stainless steel press eye in each corner and a loop of stainless cable running around the
perimeter in a pocket, to help tension the membrane.
Our larger sails come with a stainless corner clamping plate, which is powder coated, and a stainless toggle tensioner
connects the corner plate to the post.
Each individual side of the membrane has its own stainless edge cable with threaded end terminals for final tensioning.
