sunbrella waterproof fabric
When rain, sun and salt air are part of the plan, Sunbrella waterproof fabric is the material to reach for. Whether you're covering a boat, recovering patio cushions or stitching a new awning, choosing the right Sunbrella fabric helps your project hold its color and shape season after season.
Waterproof vs. Water-Resistant: Know the Difference
Not every Sunbrella fabric handles moisture the same way. Some styles are water-resistant and breathable, so they shed light rain while letting trapped moisture escape. Others are coated or backed for waterproof protection under heavy exposure. Check each product listing to match the fabric to your conditions.
Popular Uses
- Marine projects: boat covers, biminis, dodgers and enclosures
- Outdoor living: cushions, pillows and furniture covers
- Shade structures: awnings, canopies and umbrellas
What to Look For
Consider the fabric's weight, weave and backing, along with how it will be cleaned and stored. Solution-dyed acrylic is valued for colorfastness, while coated marine fabrics suit covers that see standing water. Pair your choice with UV-resistant thread and corrosion-resistant hardware for best results.
