Similar to how the different marquee frames are suited to different applications, our roof fabrics are the same. One fabric is not “better” than another, simply that they are suited to different applications.
PVC Coated Polyester
This is our standard fabric when it comes to marquee roofs. About 80% of people opt for the polyester because it is easy to use, light to carry and overall more cost effective.
