What materials are used to make my SunSetter Retractable Awning?
Why SunSetter? America’s #1 Best-Selling Retractable Awning
SunSetter Retractable Awnings are the #1 best-selling awnings in America, and for good reason. Their industry-leading buying power allows them to source the highest-quality materials at competitive prices, delivering exceptional value without compromising durability or performance.
Unmatched Craftsmanship & Durability
Every SunSetter Retractable Awning is built using Aircraft-Quality, High-Tensile Extruded Aluminum (HTE Aluminum)—the strongest aluminum available in the consumer market. Each major structural component is finished with a light cream powder coating, which is electro-chemically bonded to the surface for superior resistance against chipping, rusting, and peeling.
Premium Fabrics for Long-Lasting Beauty
SunSetter awning fabrics are engineered with advanced industry-leading techniques to ensure unmatched durability and performance:
✔ Ultrasonically Seam-Sealed – Provides a seam that is 7.5 times stronger than traditional stitched seams, eliminating weak points.
✔ 100% Solution-Dyed Acrylic Fibers – Ensures deep color penetration for exceptional fade resistance over time.
✔ Mold & Mildew Resistant – Unlike traditional canvas awning or umbrella fabrics, SunSetter’s 100% polymer-based woven acrylic resists mold and mildew growth.
✔ Enhanced Water Repellency – A protective membrane is applied to both the topside and underside of the fabric, promoting excellent water resistance and durability.
A Smart Investment for Long-Term Comfort
SunSetter awnings are more than just shade solutions—they’re a long-term investment in comfort, protection, and style. With industry-leading materials, expert craftsmanship, and proven durability, a SunSetter Awning provides years of enjoyment at an unbeatable value.
