How each material is specified
What to watch for with each material
- Polyester: Higher denier fabric (e.g. 1680D) is tougher and heavier — choose by use.
- Nylon: Denier and coating should be matched to the load and weather exposure.
- PU Leather: Grade matters — thicker, better-backed PU lasts longer. Confirm the grade on the sample.
- Canvas: Heavier canvas costs more but lasts longer — match GSM to the load.
- Recycled PET (rPET): Ask for fabric documentation if you need to make recycled-content claims.
