Polyfab™ Sun Protection


Polyfab, a trusted suppler of premium shade sail fabrics and supplies, is readily available from Trivantage® for shading commercial or residential outdoor spaces. Solar shades made from Polyfab products are ideal for patios, schools and playgrounds, shopping centers, hotels, pools, parking lots, and more.


An innovation in canopies, shade sails offer a modern look, flexible design, and wider coverage than traditional awnings or umbrellas. Use Polyfab fabric, hardware, and webbing together to create high-quality canopies. Choose from nearly 50 fade-resistant colors across three Polyfab shade sail fabric collections. Each style is made from woven HDPE for high strength and tension capability.


Polyfab’s Comtex®, Polytex®, and Architec 400® shade cloths consistently set and refine industry standards. Through rigorous research and development, Polyfab has improved the performance of these fabrics in recent years. Today, the company has taken its shade cloths to a whole new level with Polytex+ and Comtex+, both of which come with all the benefits of Polytex and Comtex as well as new, exciting advancements:


  • Improved pigment system for greater longevity
  • New colors
  • Heat set fabric that is easier to work with
  • 12-year warranty backed by Polyfab

Polytex+ and Comtex+ coupled with Architec 400 creates a complete offering. Architec 400 – the industry heavyweight champion for large shade structures – has excellent lay flat properties and comes with a 15-year warranty.
