Self-cleaning & care of awnings
How to keep your awning looking good for a long time with little effort.
Colours, fabrics, light - all this makes your patio or balcony a place where you enjoy spending time. To ensure that your awning fabric remains as beautiful as on the first day, even after many years, the materials from weinor are provided with a high-quality protective finish. This ensures that water, dirt and dust hardly stand a chance.
Clever finish - beautiful effect
Weinor awning fabrics have special impregnations such as HI-CLEAN® (Parà) or TEXgard (Sattler). This protective finish protects the fabric and allows water and dirt to simply roll off*
Water-repellent: Rain and other liquids run off without leaving any traces.
Dirt-repellent: The invisible protective layer prevents watery or oily dirt from sticking - deposits simply don't stick.
All fabrics in our my collections 2 collection are certified to OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 and offer excellent sun protection with UV protection of at least 93.3% - for carefree hours outdoors.
How to keep your awning fabric looking good for a long time
A few simple care tips will help to maintain the finish of your fabric in the long term:
- Avoid moisture. Only roll up the awning wet in exceptional cases and allow the fabric to dry as soon as possible.
- Remove pollen and loose dirt with the upholstery brush of the hoover or carefully with adhesive tape.
- For stubborn stains, moisten the cloth with clean water and allow the dirt to soften.
- Use lukewarm water (max. 40 °C) and a 5-10 % solution of mild detergent.
- Apply the foam with a sponge, do not rub in, and rinse with plenty of clean water after 15-20 minutes.
- Then allow the fabric to dry completely.
Never rub or brush the awning fabric too hard. High-pressure cleaners are also taboo so as not to damage the protective surface.
If you have an open awning, you can retract it far enough during cleaning so that the affected area can be easily reached from below.
Natural care - lasting beauty
With the right care, the protection of your awning fabric will remain active for a long time and your outdoor area will remain as beautiful as you know and love it: with colours that shine and fabrics that will impress even after years of use.
* Please note that the degree of impregnation decreases over time.
