What are the advantages of Sunbrella Fabrics?
Sunbrella fabric is a high performance fabric created especially to endure outdoor conditions. UV-resistant color pigments are fully blended into its high performance fiber. Sunbrella fabric's strength and color refuses to fade even under the harshest conditions, while retaining the softness of spun cotton. Because Sunbrella Furniture fabrics are designed to be breathable, they are water repellent, but not completely waterproof. Over time, the water repellency can be refreshed by using 303 High Tech Fabric Guard™ ( www.303products.com ).
Mildew will not grow on Sunbrella unless there is food, dirt or other organic matter on the fabric. Sunbrella fabrics do not absorb water and are designed to air-dry very quickly - usually within a matter of minutes. An added benefit is that Sunbrella fabrics have been tested and proven to provide up to 98% UV protection from harmful effects of the sun when used in shade applications, so they make great fabric for Umbrellas.
