Folding arm awnings are the most widespread type of foldable awnings. As the name implies, folding arms open and close thus dynamically extending and shortening protection. Canvas itself can be tilted as required to achieve desired vertical protection. Folding arms themselves are made of aluminum with cables of various sizes found within them. Fabrics used for these awnings are impregnated (acrylic) canvases of renowned European manufacturers Sattler and Sauleda that can be found in various colors, textures and designs. Canvases are cut to order and can be branded and printed on. Folding arm awnings use manual controls (hand or remote control operated) and can have integrated sensors for wind, rain and sun by renowned manufacturer of electronic equipment Somfy. All folding arm awnings can be made to customer specifications.
