This is a broad classification of awnings that are manufactured with a welded tubular metal frame and then covered with a fabric or some sort of covering. A great variety of materials can be used for the frame and the fabric or covering.
Frameworks can be made from steel, Galvalume (galvanized alloy), aluminum, stainless steel, copper, brass or other rigid material that are formed, bent and welded to create numerous shapes, slopes, projections and curves. Further treatment or finishing is common, such as being galvanized, plated, painted, clear coated, brushed, buffed and polished.
When it comes to selecting the appropriate fabric or covering you can rely on Roberts to make the most suitable recommendation for your purpose. In choosing a fabric, consideration must be given to image, aesthetic appearance, durability, maintenance, colour, form, texture and composition.
Roberts is an industry expert at applying graphics on fabrics and other coverings. Understanding how weathering occurs over time is critical to recommending the appropriate materials and methods of application.
All this expertise and experience makes Roberts a custom fabricator of great stature. Contact us with your requirements and find out for yourself. |
