What Is Shade Canvas?
Shade canvas is a specialized outdoor fabric designed to block sunlight, reduce heat and provide protection from UV radiation while maintaining structural stability. Depending on the material and coating, shade canvas can be waterproof, water-resistant or breathable.
Unlike ordinary fabrics, shade canvas is manufactured with reinforced base fabrics and advanced coatings to ensure high tensile strength, weather resistance and long service life in outdoor environments. 
Types of Shade Canvas Fabric
PVC Shade Canvas
PVC shade canvas is made from high-tenacity polyester fabric coated with PVC. It offers excellent waterproof performance, UV resistance and dimensional stability. This type is commonly used for retractable awnings, fixed canopies and commercial shading systems.
HDPE Shade Canvas
HDPE shade canvas is a breathable knitted fabric designed to allow airflow while blocking harmful UV rays. It is ideal for shade sails, pergolas and open-air shading where ventilation is required.
Coated Polyester Shade Canvas
Coated polyester shade canvas combines strength and flexibility, suitable for architectural applications requiring custom shapes, colors and branding.
