Difference in brands of waterproof acrylic fabrics

What is the difference in brands of acrylic canvas?

First an explanation of our waterproof acrylic fabric. Our boat acrylic is a very high quality, waterproof acrylic fabric that has been specially developed for outdoor use. This acrylic fabric has a waterproof acrylic coating and a special, dirt-repellent and water-repellent aftertreatment that protects the fabric against stains, grease stains, liquids and splashing salt or chlorinated water.
Esvo may call itself the market leader in waterproof outdoor fabrics and we absolutely stand by the information below.

What is the technical difference between Docril, Sauleda and Sunbrella Plus? : NONE! 

Many are familiar with the well-known Dickson brand Sunbrella. Sunbrella was developed to be used outdoors all year round: in the garden, as patio screening, as a tarpaulin, or on the deck of a boat, et cetera. In terms of characteristics, EXACTLY THE SAME technical specifications of acrylic fabric Sunbrella Plus also apply to our other brands Docril and Sauleda, which are also internationally valued. WE GUARANTEE IT!
You can compare this anyway if you compare the different technical specifications of each brand in terms of weather resistance, high water resistance, unique high colour fastness/u.v. resistance and especially the durability of these acrylic fabrics. They simply do not differ from each other.

Is there really no difference between these waterproof acrylic fabrics? Yes, the shape retention.

Yes, the DOCRIL and SAULEDA acrylic fabrics are even more dimensionally stable than the world-famous outdoor fabric Sunbrella Plus. This means that Docril's acrylic fabric retains its shape better when exposed to weather conditions. In addition, this acrylic is also somewhat softer to the touch.
