HOW TO CHOOSE THE BEST CANVAS FOR OUR AWNING?

WHEN WE MANAGE: SUN PROTECTION

RTOYOS ULTRAVIOLET (UV)

They are invisible to the human eye and are the ones that have the most serious impacton the skin (burns, spots, wrinkles).

They are divided into three subcategories:

VISIBLE RAYS (VI)

They emit light and are those that the human eye perceives in the form of colors (red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue and violet).

INFRARED (IR) RAYS

With a longer wavelength than visible light, they emit heat and any body whose temperature is higher than 0º Kelvin releases them.

INFRARED RAYS (HEAT)

We protect ourselves from them with dark colors, since they minimize solar transmission by having a high solar absorption and a small reflection, having a high absorption we must take into account that it is not installed too close to people, this absorption will radiate heat.

Light colors have higher solar transmission but at the same time low absorption and high reflection.

We can find the right balance among more than 130 colors (Sauleda Masacril Smooth).

VISIBLE RAYS (LIGHT)

Dark colors block more light through and light colors let more light through, opaque materials block all visible rays (light) and at the same time have a high heat blockage.

ULTRAVIOLET (UV) RAYS

  • Ultraviolet (UVA). They are those that easily pass through the atmosphere, mostly reaching the Earth’s surface. They are the ones that tan our skin.
  • Ultraviolet B (UVB). They have a harder time getting through the atmosphere. Even so, they reach the earth’s surface and are the ones that can cause the most serious damage to the skin.
  • Ultraviolet C (UVC). These types of rays do not make it through the atmosphere, as they are absorbed by the ozone layer.

Sauleda Masacril tarpaulins block 99% of UVA rays, UVB rays have a UV40-UV60-UV80 protection factor depending on the color.

IF WE WANT TO MANAGE RAINFALL

We must choose waterproof materials, coated polyester fabrics or with a high resistance to water such as Sauleda Solain fabric.

IF WE WANT TO MANAGE AESTHETICS (DECORATION)

We have a very wide range of products and colors that are sure to meet your requirements.
