What material is the canopy made of?

The posts and folding truss system is made from steel with a very hard hammered paint finish. The canopy is possibly made from a heavy dacron-like material while the optional panels are made from a lighter sail type material.

Some kind of tough polymer canvas, very heavy. Absolutely no sign of wear on the fabric after 4 seasons of heavy farmers market use, 4 days/week for 6 months... I suggest a silicone spray to waterproof after the first year, handling reduces the factory waterproofing after alot of use, though I show artwork & have never had a leak. The velcro attaching it wore out after 3 years, before I replaced, the top still stayed on because of the straps provided on each side that pull up any sagging - they helped out the aged velcro enough so I could use it until I could sew on new velcro.

It is a polyester, very good as I left mine on the stand for 4 months and it held up real well, it gets pretty windy In okla.

The canopy is made from a heavy canvas type material and the frame is metal. It is designed to fit tricycles not bicycles, but I don't know if it fits all makes and models of trikes. Although I would love to see the unit extend a bit further over the seat, I highly recommend the canopy as it has been a life saver for our son with Down Syndrome who is on his trike all day, everyday.

The metal poles are thin gauge, similar to electrical conduit, so they are lightweight. I've had mine up for several months in Arizona sun with no problems whatsoever. I contacted the seller to make sure a replacement canopy was available, and it is. I plan on purchasing a spare canopy to put away for a rainy day. The embedded fibers make any ripping unlikely, I'm just leery of UV damage.

This is a vinyl plastic material. Very thin and very flexible. The version we have has built in ribs to offer stronger support in the material. As in the materials capabilities, it stands up to UV and strong winds pretty good. Had it covering our pool all last summer and it kept form and shape very well.

Not sure, but at that price I didn't care. Once I received it, I was even happier. It's a really heavy duty canopy. Everyone that looks at it wants one!

It's clear plastic with embedded netting. It's this top plastic that gets brittle from the sun over time. I still have mine and it's going on 4 years now. I leave it set up year round. On real cold nights I cover the whole greenhouse with large tarps. The tarps cover any holes and/or gaps and keep the heat in from a small space heater. During the day I pull the tarps back with attached ropes. Hope this helps, good luck.

The canopy is brown. The legs are not adjustable. We've had several good windstorms come through and tied the legs down with some concrete blocks and it held in place. My hubby loves it because he grills year round. When it's really bad out, he will attach a tarp to the outside and stays warm and dry inside.Overall, we've been very pleased with our purchase. I hope this helps.

i,M NOT SURE OF THE MATERIAL. iT IS strong, LIGHT WEIGHT, AND APPEARS VERY DURABLE. I am pleased with it.

I'm pleased with the canopy. I thought that the frame was going to be made out of a wooden-looking material but it's made out of a white plastic bendable material. Either way, it's pretty dreamy.

I am not sure what material it is--some sort of polyester but it is very nice and soft, not at all like vinyl. Hope this helps.

Great as a sun screen, not water proof. Made of what seems to be light vweight nylon.. I set one up for a 2 month stay in Florida and had no problem. There are anchor tie loops on the canopy corners but I secured around the corner frame to prevent damage to the top in the event of high winds. To answer your question "how its done" not sure what your are asking.

The material is 100% high density polyethylene. It does a good job of limiting visibility from the outside while still allowing a good amount of light I have bought two sets one larger to keep the sun away from my porch and another smaller for my den, this second one I got it for the same reason you mentioned, to limit visibility from outside but still allow light to come in. I am happy with the product.

Don't remember exactly, something like the tent rod material, the snaps may be plastic. They have been very robust though - you have to stretch the screen hard enough to get it fixed on the frame, and it certainly holds itself together. I have used it for almost a year, on problem at all.

I think it's made out of soft plastic. They are pretty solid, but some thin parts are flexible, like the umbrella. They are really great, my kid cannot put them down.

Not sure what the fabric is made of but it is strong and holds up well. I am using it to shade some artificial grass for the dog during the summer months.

it's a canvas like material. Actually pretty resistant. HOWEVER... the bolt that goes into the middle bracket scrapes against the fabric as you are rolling/unrolling the awning and eventually caused a tear in mine. Aside from the difficulty in getting the bolt in there, it's not worth it, since it will eventually rip the fabric. I, personally, feel that the two bolts on the end are sufficient, since the bolts only hold the canopy in the brackets and don't actually support any weight (the brackets support the weight). Hope this helps!
