Materials

Choose materials by application — not just by fabric code. Start with what the finished product must do; the construction and coating direction can then be reviewed against cost, handling and production requirements.

Material directions by application

Application	What to review	Starting direction
Tent & camping products	Packed weight, rain exposure, tear resistance, handling	Polyester taffeta or lightweight Oxford, with the required coating and performance target
Vehicle & furniture covers	Outdoor exposure, surface protection, drape, abrasion, appearance	Oxford construction with PU, silver or other finishing, selected against the end use
Tarpaulin & industrial covers	Strength, handling, repeated exposure, waterproof performance	Higher-denier Oxford or coated polyester, subject to loading and required testing
Awning & canopy products	Shade, UV exposure, color, waterproofing, dimensional stability	Coated polyester or Oxford, reviewed against the structure and target service conditions

These are starting directions, not fixed specifications. Final suitability always depends on the complete requirement and a sample review.

Base fabrics we work with

• Polyester Oxford — a base construction to consider when strength and handling matter (210D / 420D / 600D and others).
• Polyester taffeta & pongee — lighter options where hand feel and packed weight are priorities.
• Mini-ripstop — a direction to assess for weight / tear-performance balance.
• Solution-dyed polyester — a color-process option; suitability confirmed per project.

Coatings & finishes

• PU coating — review waterproofing, hand feel and coating stability for the chosen base fabric.
• Silver / UV coating — for covers where sun exposure and heat matter.
• Fluorine-free (PFAS-free) DWR — a water-repellent finish option; SGS test reports can be provided for the applicable material.
• PA and blackout coatings — discussed where relevant to the application.

Coating and finish are reviewed as a system with the base fabric — never as a standalone claim. Available directions are not verified performance claims; final construction, test method and report are confirmed for the selected material.

Prepare a useful material request

• Finished product and intended use
• Reference fabric, sample or current specification
• Waterproof, UV, strength or handling priorities
• Target width, color and estimated quantity
• Destination market and required testing

Fabric MOQ: 50,000 meters. Final specifications, coating and testing are reviewed before quotation.
