Fabric
The fabrics in the standard range are woven from solution dyed acrylic. However, it could happen that you note some minor imperfections after the installation of your awning. A slight embossing, some veining, small folds along the stitching, in the centre of the fabrics or possibly some overlapping could appear.
These irregularities are inherent in acrylic fabrics and have no effect on the performance of your cover.
Your installer can in no way be held responsible for these slight imperfections.
Examples of these natural occurrences are repeated in the Dickson fabric collection book
Veining
• Subsequent to handling during sewing, fabrication and assembly, acrylic fabrics treated with resins containing fluoride may present “veining” visible against sunlight and due to an optical effect (differences in the refraction of light)
• Folds/Wrinkles
When rolling the cover, folds may be produced in the centre or along the stitching.
• Waves
Different wrapping thickness occur on the fabric rolls where the hems and seams of the panels are because there are two layers of fabric in these places. The tension in the material created this way, may produce waves (for example a wave or herringbone pattern).
