Awnings & Sun Protection
Awning panels, blinds and shade products combine visible finishing details with seams designed for tension, folding and everyday use.
Welding solutions for awnings, blinds and shade products
Sun-protection manufacturing includes joining panels and creating hems, pockets and reinforced edges. Forsstrom offers welding solutions for suitable coated fabrics and films, with impulse, HF and hot-wedge processes serving different material and seam requirements. Some textiles need a compatible bonding tape. Fabric construction, finish and repeated operations guide the setup for awnings, blinds, screens and other shade products.

FAQ
Acrylic fabrics generally need a compatible heat-activated bonding layer rather than direct fusion like a weldable PVC coating. Tape selection, fabric treatment and heat response affect the joint. Test the exact material combination before selecting the process and production settings.
Suitable machines, guides and tooling can create hems, pockets and overlap seams. The fabric, pocket size and required finish guide the configuration. Forsstrom’s impulse range includes different levels of automation, so available functions should be checked for the selected model.
