Swela Sunsilk SNC –(Swela Nano Clean) A result of 3 years in research and development, this fabric is a milestone in external textile development. This silky high tech polyester based fabric provides self cleaning ‘finish’ that enables the fabric cover to permanently repel dirt, grease, oil and water, which not only ensures its long lasting radiant colour but also low maintenance awning for life.
Swela Transolair - is an acrylic based sunscreen fabric, that features a special perforation technology that allows for the excellent transparency, light, air and wind permeability – providing up to 97% UV protection. Transolair is available in widths up to 2.5metres.
Markilux Ultrasonic Sealing
Increased use of motorisation in awning systems have placed a higher stress level on fabric covers through increased rates of operation. Markilux has pioneered the ultrasonic adhesive sealing – an adhesive to weld fabric covers. This new, high compression technology utilises a highly concentrated surface adhesive to join the length of fabric covers, replacing the need for double stitched seams.
