Areas of use:
This fabric is perfectly suited for tents, sunshades, awnings, patio shades, tipis and backpacks, but of course also for rough, robust clothing.

Due to the high fabric density, the fabric has a natural water-repellent function (no chemical impregnation). If water stands on the fabric for a longer period of time, the top side will wet. After 1-2 days, the reverse side merely becomes damp and only after 2-3 days do a few drops penetrate the fabric.

Shrinkage values after the first 40° wash: 1.5% in the weft, 5% in the warp.
Shrinkage values after the first 60° wash: 2% in the weft, 8% in the warp.
If the washing temperature is reduced, the fabric shrinks slightly less after the first wash. The water-repellent function disappears after the first wash.
