Thanks to the 2/2 panama weave and the naturalness, the product has a nice historic tent-fabric-look. This product has no chemical impregnation and is thus absolutely natural. After processing, an impregnation can be applied. Because of the high product density, the fabric has a natural water-repellent function. If there is water on the fabric for a longer time, the top will start to wet. After 1-2 days the back gets wet, only after 2-3 days some drops are going to penetrate the fabric.
Shrinkage values after first 40° wash: 2% in the weft, 8% in the warp. With less washing-temperature, the product is going to have a lower shrinkage after the first wash. The water-repellent function disappears after the first wash.
