Waterproof Fabric for Outdoor Equipment
Choosing the right waterproof fabric depends on how and where the finished product will be used. Lightweight waterproof nylon fabrics are ideal for applications where keeping weight to a minimum is important, whilst heavier materials provide increased durability for more demanding projects.
Our waterproof and water-resistant fabrics can be suitable for a wide variety of applications, including tents, rucksacks, outdoor clothing, equipment bags, protective covers and outdoor furniture.
Factors such as fabric weight, coating, flexibility, abrasion resistance and exposure to UV should all be considered when choosing an outdoor material. If you're unsure which option is suitable, the Point North Profabrics team can help you compare the different fabrics available.
Heavy-Duty Waterproof Materials
For more demanding applications, heavy waterproof fabric provides the strength and weather protection needed for equipment that will face regular outdoor use.
Popular applications include:
- Equipment bags
- Tarpaulins
- Boat covers
- Outdoor storage covers
- Protective shelters
- Heavy-duty outdoor equipment
Different projects require different levels of protection, so it is important to consider more than waterproofing alone. Abrasion resistance, UV exposure, flexibility and the weight of the finished product can all influence which material is most appropriate.
