Tensioned Fabric Canopies

What are Tensioned Fabric Canopies & Structures?

Tensioned fabric membrane canopy structures use a simple flat sheet of coated waterproof and flame retardant shade fabric supported by a metal framework. These roof sheets are then secured into an aluminium cladding rail.

Fabric makes an excellent choice for permanently fixed canopy shelters and playground shade structures and the inclusion of gutters allows for efficient rainwater management.

These are also a perfect choice to add a bit of flair to your surroundings and can make very striking art installations. Feel free to explore some of our tensioned fabric canopy projects below or some of our related canopies.
