PVC coated fabrics are designed to withstand varying weather conditions, from cold winters to intense sunlight and high UV exposure. They provide reliable protection all year round, regardless of the season or weather. With proper care, their lifespan can extend up to twenty years.
Coated fabric consists of multiple layers, each with its own function. The structure of a coated fabric includes a base fabric, an undercoat, a coating layer (e.g. PVC), and a lacquer. For the fabric to perform optimally in its intended application, these layers must be carefully designed and manufactured. Read more about the function of each layer of the fabric.
Our product development team ensures that every coated fabric we create truly meets the requirements of its application. Our Development Engineer, Eemeli Nissinen, takes us inside the product development journey, from the initial customer need to the finished product.
Choosing the right PVC fabric is important to ensure its properties match the requirements of the application. This way, the material will last long and maintain its performance even in the most demanding conditions and environments.
Regular washing and maintenance extend the lifespan of our coated fabrics. Below are instructions for washing and maintaining our fabrics.
